I wonder if that vent is heat only or A/C as well. It doesn't look like it has rear controls and I don't expect it to for the price point.

I've never seen a heat only duct. Usually the heater core and A/C evaporator are stacked on top of each other. One intake duct and that runs to every vent in the car.
The Multi Display is a nice touch. It should appeal to the folks buying this to squeeze every last mpg out of it. I wonder how accurate it will be?
I noticed that Nissan Canada's site didn't have a shot of the instrument cluster, so here's a nice, clear shot of the gauge cluster I took of the Micra at the Toronto Auto Show:
I am a bit disappointed that there's no temperature gauge, though I'm certain this shouldn't be too difficult to add as an aftermarket item. Temp gauge is valuable when eco-modding and doing things like blocking the grille.
Another interesting shot I took was looking down at the center console; below the armrest, there is both USB power and 12V power:
Here's a shot of the driver's controls; note the tilt steering, power mirror controls, and hood/gas cap cover release levers side by side:
Overall, nicely and tastefully appointed and not overdone. See more pictures and my impressions in my blog post at mymicra.com.
In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

Hey guys, sorry if I've missed it somewhere, but do the rear seats fold and tip (don't know how to properly describe) like some pics I've seen? I think it was European model?

From what I've read online, know, they don't fold and tip. You have to take off the rear seat headrests by hand, and it doesn't create a truly flat cargo floor. Hopefully one of the new owners can confirm or deny this.
