2012 Nissan Versa
Wheels above all else. There's still assumption: Redesigned for 2012, the Versa sedan starts at $10,990, making it the least-high-priced 2012 model in the U.S. For around $14,500, it's the least expensive car with an reflex transmission, air conditioning and power windows. If a low car payment matters most, norm your calendar. The Versa goes on sale in August.The sedan comes in S, SV and SL trims. All but the S have an self-regulating transmission. At a media preview, I tested the SV and SL. The Versa hatchback carries over from the earlier generation for 2012, with a redesign on the way. This review covers the sedan, but if you homelessness to learn more about the hatchback, our 2011 Versa overview gives a closer look.

I prospect those suits look sharper.
