    I also saw another Micra today - a red S I think it was. At Bayfront Park area in Hamilton. Was visiting family there and walking along the paths when I saw it.

    Cool. I also saw 3 or 4 in Cornwall Nissan... but that doesn't really count.

    May be the same one I saw before on my morning commute along highway 401 westbound, spotted this morning...

    White SR with tint... what are the odds?

    I haven't seen any others since the one on the highway last week. I see Versa Notes on a pretty regular basis though - stretch Micras, I call 'em.

    Funny thing.. My neighbour has a silver versa. She says I just left my versa in the dryer too long.

    two!

    Round trip to Montreal today, saw none on the way there, or while there. Saw two on the way home though (401/20): one Caspian Sea, the other Red, both S or SV.

    No pics - driving!

    To put that in context, I also saw:
    • about a dozen Fiat 500's,
    • 5 (five!) Chevrolet Volts,
    • and a Tesla Model S electric sedan.

    it's raining Micras

    Saw two more today. Red S/SV and a Caspian Sea SR, both headed westbound on the 401 near Cornwall, Ont.

    No pix; driving!

    Micra deluge

    Spotted the first one -- grey SV -- in my home town today! (No Nissan dealership here, so that's a milestone.)

    Again, driving, so no pic. I suck at getting pics.

    Darin, dash cams are pretty cheap at Canada Computers...as little as $35. I think you need one.

    Paul - do you have one (dash cam)?

    My last 3 reports have been from 3 different cars, so I'd have to move that cam around!
