i saw a versa today...

and i saw a fit about a week ago. both were bright red, just like my car. and i must saw...they look horrible!!! i can't judge on anything but the body 'cause i never test drove either of them. (can't say anything about the aveo 'cause i actually think its pretty cute and i was this close to getting that instead.)
i saw the versa while i was speeding on the Pike. i thought it was a yaris at first and so i sped up to catch up and give the yaris wave. then, as i got closer, i thought "somethings wrong with that car! what'd he do to his yaris!" then i saw the nissan symbol, and i drove beside him for a while and then i got in front so he got a chance to admire my yaris from all angles!
i saw the fit while driving throught the city. not my style! i'm sooo happy with my yaris!!!!!!!

my dad just bought a Versa, and it's hella smooth than a Yaris. It's look ugly inside and outside, but i really like it got Keyless system thing, no need to crank up your car with your key. He got Nissan Versa SL fully loaded for $16,989 plus 0% apr. I wish my yaris engine smooth like the Versa.

You mean for only $3,000 more I could have gotten nasty styling, lower mileage and a remote start feature offered on a dozen aftermarket alarms?! Oh, what a fool I was!

I would like the FIT and Versa a lot more if they offered a 3 door. I just do not like 5 door cars. I am happy with the Yaris as I comparison shopped and this was my all around choice over VW, Nissan, Honda and Chevy.

haha seriously have to agree!!! I think a coupe outfit on B-segment or Kei cars is better than 4-door versions.

they are both fugly!

I couldnt get past the versa's ugly looks... the fit is "tolerable" once properly modded, but the yaris STARTS OFF lookin pretty sweet

the aveo is just a turd... the other offerings just dont have the strong name backing them.

There's a red suped-up Versa in the #2 issue of Siphon that I begrudgingly admit is pretty darn sweet looking. God only knows how much it costed to get it there, though. The pics in the mag I think are newer than the ones below... in Siphon, the Versa has an additional mid-gate spoiler, which looks even better.




Fit looks like a mini-minivan no matter how you dress it up.

Also remember that Nissan does not have the reliabilty record nor resale value of either Toyota or Honda and the Versa is built in Mexico as opposed to Japan for the Yaris. Overall Nissans cars are not as well built as Toyotas.

Someone think that is a cute car, you can't judge it like that. The gas mileage is not that great like the Yaris but remember it's way smoother than Yaris. And hey factory keyless smart is always better than aftermarket.

Sorry; I like the Fit. However, I can't learn to like the Versa.

Your pathfinder had Two Hundred Million Miles?! That is a new world record!

I must say that that your Nissan reached 200K miles is a small miracle. I have heard of other well made Nissans, but they are as rare as hens teeth.

That is 200,000K there not 2 millions llook again.
But seriously i really don't feel driving the same car all over again, when i reached 200,000K i feel like it's time for another car.
