36 year old single male in Canmore, AB, Canada.

Bought my Versa SL Sedan just over a month ago. My old ride was a 1995 Chevy Tahoe that I inherited. I drove that into the ground...always putting too much money into repairs...and buying gas for it was also a financial nightmare.

Got the Versa because I needed an affordable car, for both the payments and filling up at the gas station. I am also 6'4" and needed a relatively cheap car I could actually fit in. Car companies gotta remember that tall people need affordable vehicles too.

24, Male, I like long walks on the beach and...wait wrong forum. I am married (2 years in Sept.), we have a cat and a dog. The cat is a ninja, professionally.I work for the state government. I live in Columbia, SC, and play xbox. gamertag: thisnewrepublic

It seems that the average age is 20-28 a few mid 30's, few 40's, and then a bunch of 50-60's. I guess everyone can appreciate the gem of car that the Versa is.

66 years young-Married for 46 years-3 kids-6 grandchildern-no pets-Retired in 95 after 33 years in the chemical industry-now doing dealer trades for a Honda, Nissan and Toyota dealer-making a whole lot less money but enjoying driving all the different cars.

People just don't understand when I tell them I traded in a 07 Camry LE with 7600 miles on it to get the Versa.

My wife's 05 CRV gets real lonesome setting in the garage all the time.

Pretty much the same, needed cheap(er), good mpg, and fit 6'4 fat guy in.

Married, 51 male, no kids - 60 miles daily solo rush hour commute x 5 days a week in metro NY area (ouch !) - Versa S now doing primary duty and loving it, zipping in & out as necessary since my work at medical center is also being on call 24/7/365 as necessary being AOD /administrator on call & first responder.

Versa fits me great at 6'0" and 220 lbs. large frame and $$$ saved in last week on gas will pay for the insurance, now that I'm keeping 2 cars.

The 2004 Honda CRV EX with 26 MPG Highway & 20 MPG real life daily commute with my heavy foot is now getting plenty of rest (at 63,000 miles) until the winter season with its AWD edge at the expense of MPG reduction.

26 M, no kids, no spouse. I actually went to the nissan dealer with the Spec-V in mind, but when they didnt have one in the color I wanted I drove the Versa SL since it also came in a 6 speed. The transmission was different from driving my S-10 which was also a manual. but it felt great and was comfortable. I put the springs strut bar intake and exhaust on it and am very happy with the way it performs. Maybe now once I get done with school as a nutritionist, I can get to work on the spouse and 2.5 children...LOL

We need more women posters here!

Well, I'm one. 46, married, one child, graphic designer living in Tampa. Traded my beloved Murano fo the Versa to save money and fuel, but very happy with it so far (2 weeks!)

Would like to find some affordable ways to dress it up a bit and give it a little more character at some point.

Really into detailing my cars - Zaino aficionado.

I'm glad I'm not the only "middle aged" person on the site.

46 y/o mother of Courtney(20), grandmother of Kailey(22 months), owner of 3 cats and involved in a committed relationship. I traded my Suzuki Grand Vitara to get better gas mileage and ended up with much more. Better MPG and more interior room. The Versa is roomy, cute and peppy .

No under hood mods yet, but will put on a cold air intake and a few other updates. Looking for vent shades for the windows and sun roof.

Bob @ Versaspeed.com should have the vent shades for the windows for you. Can't say about the sunroof though.

I'm 25 and married, expecting our first child in November.

I ended up buying my Versa because my Accord was getting old and beat up. :D

Congrats on the impeding addition of the little one!

Speaking of, this thread was created before our big event, so my demographics are slightly different.

I'm 17, male. Got this as an early graduation present. First car was an s13 240sx, loved it. Have to say my new Nissan is great though. It isn't your typical high schooler's car and I couldn't be happier with it.

34, married, 1 kiddie (age 5). Traded our 2001 Maxima SE on a 2008 Versa SL (CVT). Don't need the size of the Max anymore and figured we'd trade it before it was worth $0.

Car will be the wife's daily runaround town with occasional highway trips of around 500Kms each way.

Main reason we got the SL was the S doesn't come with hight adjustable seat and the wife is a bit 'height challenged'. I kinda like the extra whistles and bells though
