Does anyone know why Nissan won't allow ABS with the option upgrades? That seems to be a major marketing blunder on Nissan's part!

Before looking at the Versa, I looked at the Matrix. No matter who I talked to, it seemed impossible to get ABS on a manual version of the car. Not wanting to pay extra for the automatic and lose the fun in the process, I decided to go with the Versa. I'm still unsure why Toyota doesn't make ABS widely available on manual models. (Even the manual models themselves are hard to find.) I just hope that I don't get a call from my dealer saying, "Now about that ABS you wanted..."

I tried to order an SL with Convenience package and ABS. The dealer tried and, of course, Nissan would not accept the order. The salesman said that's just the way Nissan is; they more or less do it their way. Period. Logic evidently doesn't enter into the equation.
 
Won't get the car for 60-90 days. If Nissan decides to do it in that time. Period

ABS, Sunroof, CVT, Audio Pkg., Sirius, Convenience Pkg. Versas have been built and delivered to dealers.
If you are seeking a loaded SL, have your dealer do a search of inventory in your region, there are a few of these available.
Interesting that Nissan website will not allow ABS to be selected with the above options, yet Nissan is selling the Versa SL with the options that can not be selected.

Versa SL with ABS - no convenience pkg by 74apollo

After getting the run around from my local Nissan dealer (ordered in Aug and then dealer canceled the order in late Sept saying they couldn't order a Versa SL with ABS), I visited another dealer in a larger city. They went into their system and changed the options on a car they ordered three weeks ago to match what I wanted and the order was accepted! Delivery date is late Dec tho. I can't quite figure out why it takes so long when this car is already being built for sale in other countries.

When you placed your order, did you already negotiate the price, or do you have to pay MSRP?

None of the dealers I spoke came down from MSRP. I have a trade-in so all I was interested in was getting a certain amount for that.

<< (including the audio package and sunroof package that no one else has seen) >>
 
I live in Illinois and have a fairly loaded blue onyx SL with CVT, the audio package (subwoofer), and sunroof that is about a month old now. So they are trickling out.

I received confirmation of a FIRM arrival date of late Oct./early Nov for my 6-speed SL w/ ABS (but without Convenience Pkg.) back in early Sept. (I had ordered the specific car back in mid-August, as earlier posted.) After hearing about order problems through this forum, I contacted my dealer last week with my concerns and asked for a reconfirmation of the ETA..... A week passed with no reply. A second email was sent asking for an update..... Two days passed with no reply. Since this silence had occurred before when the dealer I am working with had bad news, I decided to call.
 
Sure enough. He said that Nissan had cancelled the order and that they had to reorder. Said he would contact me in a couple days to let me know when the arrival day might be, but couldn't tell me if it would be two weeks or 10 MORE weeks. What is Nissan doing?! When people are patient enough to place an order for the exact car they want and wait 8-10 weeks, they expect the vehicle to arrive as promised. How can Nissan get away with cancelling orders behind their dealers' backs? Terrible business practices!

It is very frustrating and makes me wonder why there is such an issue with ABS when they put it on the Sentra. Ask your dealer if they can go into an order they already have in Nissan's system (for their own stock and not an order for a customer) and change it to match the options you want. That's what my dealer did and the order was accepted. It might save a few weeks time.
