Hi. My name is Dan. I am a supple 30 year old who has recently purchased a new 2012 Versa hatchback (blue). Truth be told this was not the car I wanted. It was the car I could afford. So far I am pretty happy with it. In a search for ways to make it more MY car I stumbled upon this forum. As you well know, there are some really cool looking cars on here! I have a pretty basic understanding of cars at best, but I feel like learning what I can to take the best care of my new car possible.
Thank you for your time.

Welcome to the forums, what did you want?
Well you see what happened was.... My brother works in the body shop of a dealership. It got bought out by a new company that has a Lexus, Mercedes, Toyota/Scion, Nissan and Infinity. This allowed me to get a bit of a discount. Well you can imagine on a pubic safety salary the bulk of the companies stock would be out of my reach. I initially wanted a Honda civic because those things run forever. I was interested in the Corolla but even the base modle was a little expensive. I saw a new Sentra fully loaded that I liked, but again too expensive.

Ultimately I wanted a 4 door with good MPG and automatic transmission (10 years with a manual in horrible traffic was more than enough.) After looking at a bunch of cars this one seemed to have the most bang for the buck and seems to be a very reliable car. So I went with it.

I got it Sunday and so far I am pretty happy. I am interested in a few upgrades. I am thinking about the arm rest attachment. Maybe an air intake to up the HP a bit. I see the strut stabilizer but I have limited knowledge in cars and I am uncertain how beneficial this would be in normal driving.

I am hesitant to do too much. I don't know what that does to trade in value and/or warranty. Also I am not sure about the exhaust. I don't want it to be loud or obnoxious. Loud and obnoxious is reserved for my day job.
