Finally got around to registering...pleased to join in the Versa discussion community! I am in Ontario, Canada, and my Matador Red '11 SL hatch is just about out of warranty. Love this little 'Nagasaki Rocket', although with the ridiculously cold winter we've had, my expectations for fuel mileage have been rather disappointed. No big modifications just yet. I've worked the 'other side of the desk' in the automotive world, and know how strict they can be on mods during warranty as an easy 'out'. By summer, I am going to be looking at wheel and tire upgrades, relegating the factory alloys to winter tire duty. Performance-wise, no plans just yet. I grew up tuning the piss out of carburetor-equipped engines (yes, I'm THAT old), and my modern tuning routine tends to be better intake via K&N or intake work, which doesn't do a heck of a lot for the Versa to my understanding. I'm pretty happy with the 6-speed's responsiveness in stop-and-go city traffic.

Take Care out there, all, and I'm glad to be in the group!
