Replying to: cph (Jul 11, 2007 2:45 pm) Well, we bought the Versa with ABS, based in part on some of the comments here. We have absolutely loved it. We put great snow tires on it, not studded, and the thing has been performing much better than we expected. We live in a pretty rural part of the Northeast and this winter has been very snowy. With the exception of my old Subaru Legacy wagon, this might be the best car I have driven in the snow - including our AWD Forester! I agree about the wheel wells, though, they really plug up. So, 5 stars, Nissan! Replies to this message: versa7 (Jan 14, 2008 5:24 pm)
