Yea, I finally took the plunge after 2 years of research here and elsewhere. Paid $32,400 OTD for a fully loaded 2016 SL with every option! I wanted white and the Bose system. After fed and state rebate it will cost me $22,400, minus the $11,000 I got from my insurance for a beat up 2008 Prius we totaled, total cost will be under $12k, not bad!
I actually set out to get a used one, a 2013 SL with 30k miles in really nice shape for $9500 but was surprised to find it didn't have any backup camera! What's up with that? A drive around the corner to Montclair Nissan and next thing you know I am signing away on a new one. The extra battery capacity did it for my wife, who was afraid of range anxiety. Plus it had the bird's eye camera, bose sound and every other option.
I'd share a pic but don't have the car yet! They had to get from another dealer that had it on show at a nearby mall! Nothing more disappointing than signing a new car loan and going home in your old car! Sam, the fleet manager, will personally deliver it to our home on Monday.
So now we have a 2013 Chevy Volt, which I love but it's a bit big for my wife. A 2014 Subaru Impreza AWD for road trips and going to our Arrowhead cabin in the snow, and the Leaf which will be the commuter car for my wife.
