Too bad she doesn't post anymore. I suppose for some people the "new car excitement" wears off after a while, which is normal.
Handling is great. A tall car like this should be a lot sloppier in the corners. This one goes where you point it without any drama.
Yes indeed - probably to me the car's best point is its unexpectedly good steering & handling. Good thing you didn't try a Mirage, because its handling would have exactly met your low expectations: sloppy in the corners (though improved slightly for the current model year, still can't touch the Micra for putting a smile on your face in the curves).
I find the seats suit me very well. This was not the case with the Versa.
You mean Versa Note? I assumed they were the same seat. However, maybe the base Versa Note seats are only 4-way adjustable like the base Micra's. And I MUCH prefer the 6-way adjustable seat in the SV/SR. Much more comfy.
Glad you're enjoying it so much & welcome again.

PS: you should make a garage entry for yours...
Garage empty: add car
