sngwrtr,
 
I think you're the first one to mention that you got ABS. Did you order your Versa? Or was it selected from a dealership lot? Are you from Canada or the U.S.?
 
Congratulations, and I hope you like your new Versa!!

I ordered my Versa back in July and I live in Massachusetts.
I wanted ABS from the start since I've had it on my last two cars and it has definitely helped more than once in the New England winters. I also did not want the convenience package - I'm not big into sat radio, my company pays for my cell phone so I take whatever they give me (read no blue tooth), the intelligent key didn't do much for me - so in essence I would be paying $700 for a leather steering whell with volume controls built in.
 
It seems like a solid car so far. I find the drive by wire and the CVT feel "different" and this morning I was cruising at about 70 mph and about 2k on the tach. My old boat gas guzzler revved higher than that at 70.
 
I;ve been following these thread for a while so I will definitely be weighing in on the MPG forum once I have some data.

sngwrtr,
 
I'm glad you're liking your new Versa. I hope the MPG will be satisfactory for you, because it seems like some people are a just a tad bit ticked off. Would you mind my asking approximately how long you had to wait for your Versa to come in (after being ordered)?
 
I also ordered one, too, but it was very recent (about 2 weeks ago), so I'm in for a long wait.

I just re-read my post and it didn't make sense. I meant how many weeks did you have to wait?

I ordered it on July 15th and got it on September 14th. I believe it rolled into the dealer on September 12. I was originally quoted 6-8 weeks. Remember that my hold up was that I wanted ABS and no convenience package. The dealer said he had to cash in a favor (AKA take something else in return, switch production schedules, etc.) to get mine in time.
 
If I had wanted Blue Onyx or White Powder with CVT, mats, splash guards, and convenience package (no ABS) I could have bought one on July 15 or almost any date thereafter from some dealer around Mass. They all seem to have those in stock. I have heard conflicting stories about the ABS availability - one is that ABS is standard on the SL in Canada so most of the empahsis on producing ABS equipped vehicles is for that market. Who knows???

sngwrtr,
 
Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. I was also originally quoted 6-8 weeks when I ordered mine, and I pretty much ordered everything on mine (including the audio package and sunroof package that no one else has seen). But your delivery time eases my worries a bit.

I ordered a Versa SL with ABS brakes from my local dealer in early August. I was told ETA would be 6-8 weeks. Last week, the dealer called and said Nissan was only producing the base Versa model right now and didn't know when they would start producing the SL and didn't know if they could get ABS brakes (even tho it is an option). I've talked to other dealers in the area who say delivery info on this vehicle is unavailable. Is anyone else hearing this? I live in Minnesota.

Which dealer are you speaking with in Minnesota? I spoke with one in Inver Grove Heights, and they said they were going to receive an SL with ABS shortly, and that they could order one with a lead time of 8 weeks.

I think you're getting the runaround. Others have been able to order ABS and the SL model has been produced since day 1 there are thousands delivered already. Check with another dealer. ABS might be hard to get, the parts are short and most of them have been ear-marked for Canada where ABS is standard. Another problem NISSAN is having is trying to start up the Sentra line which has a lot of common parts like the ABS system and CVT.
