I love my Leaf, but I think they have refined the car with the 2013 models.
I am considering trading my low milage 90 day old 2012 SL and getting a 2013 SV with no options other than floor matts and splash guards.
I own it so there are no lease problems.
Pros:
6.6 Kw charger (never had a low battery warning, but I hate waiting for the charge to finish)
better heater (most of my driving has been in 20 to 40 degree weather so far...burr)
not a light grey interior (will show dirt too soon)
cord lock (nice feature)
charger door release
red (sheep in wolfs clothing!)
D/B modes
separate ECO mode
charge percentage
Cons:
losing the review camera
losing the cargo cover
losing the homelink? (don't use it anyway)
no quick charge port (the chargers don't exist out here)
no led lights (does it make that much difference?)
With the tax credit, VPP pricing and loyalty bonus I think I can do it for under $3K, I'd like to get it lower.
What would you pay and are there any differences I am missing?
