    Canadian Micras getting additional quality control inspections

    I speculated in Alpha's "where is my Micra" thread that the Micras headed for Canada might be getting special quality control treatment.

    I would be surprised if the Canadian cars aren't getting some additional scrutiny. (At very least the early ones off the line.)
    This was confirmed yesterday at the Micra launch in Montreal: there's an additional inspection done by technicians when the car arrives in Canada, before being distributed to dealers.

    I didn't ask how long this would go on, but it's not unusual for an additional layer of quality control when a new car is introduced. EG: the new Mitsubishi Mirage (assembled in Thailand) gets special inspections for all cars destined for the Japanese home market, forever. The U.S. bound cars are also getting additional inspections, but only for the first 6 months of production.

    I thought so. My Micra is going to be so awesome, the exhaust will smell like flowers.

    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

    I can sell you stuff to make it smell like root beer, cherries, cotton candy or many more. ha ha. we use it to mask the smell of race fuel in our drag snowmobiles so you can run in a lower class of racing and win more. ;-).
