2012 Nissan GT-R: Product Review

Pros: The 2012 Nissan GT-R delivers truly blistering acceleration from a twin-turbo V-6 while its all-wheel drive and suspension systems cling to the road under the most adverse conditions. A unique performance computer displays all the car information you could want.

Cons: Even with the suspension in Comfort mode, the ride can be bruising.

The 2012 Nissan GT-R is a dedicated sports car, a high-tech weapon for the track, and entirely suitable for winding public roads. But it is not the most practical for day-to-day driving. A good car on a winding road puts you in a state of near nirvana, but the 2012 Nissan GT-R opens up a new level of enlightenment. Out on a particularly good road in the San Francisco Bay Area, one that winds through a valley and up a mountain topped by an observatory, a new level with the GT-R is found.

2011 Nissan Versa: Product Review

2011 Nissan Versa Review:
Pros: Low base price, Impressive interior room, Comfortable rear seating, Trunk capacity (sedan), Easy cabin access

Cons: Base model has few features, Unexciting to drive, Average reliability, Mediocre fuel economy, Not good-looking

The 2011 Nissan Versa is one of the cheapest cars available, but reviewers still find a lot to like considering its low price, making it the best-reviewed bargain-priced economy car. Cars at a certain bargain-basement price point used to be called penalty boxes. They were certainly cheap and came with a warranty, but owning one was worse than getting a double-minor in the third period of game seven in the Stanley Cup. The 2011 Nissan Versa certainly has that bargain-basement price thing down (it is one of the cheapest cars on sale in the United States), yet a penalty box it most certainly is not. If all you're looking for is simple, safe, spacious, comfortable and, yes, cheap transportation, then the Versa might be all you need. Changes are light for the 2011 Nissan Versa: antilock brakes are now included with the upgraded 1.6 sedan trim, while the 1.8 S sedan gains a six-disc CD changer.
