New 2016 SV Here

EDIT: I recognize I put SV in the title, meant SR!

Hey all! Wanted to say hello from Kirtland, OH (20 miles east of Cleveland)! Got the new SV a month or so back. Here she is! I'm loving it so far!







Looking forward to hanging out and learning about the car.

Marc

If the SR had a moonroof that would be my future choice. such an awesome looking car. Do you feel you got a good deal on it? I only tried one dealer weeks ago who wanted full price.

Thanks all! Feels good to be back. I had a 2010 SV previously. That's why I somehow put that in the title!

I've heard this color combo will be a more rare combo.

And the SR cannot have a sunroof because they wanted to keep the roof rigid. It already shares some suspension components with the GT-R.

It's a blast to drive!

Is that Storm Blue? Looks gorgeous and I am getting the SR because it doesn't have a sunroof as I have no need for it. Congrats!

It is Storm Blue. I call it Slate. But having the camel interior just sets it off. That's what people seem to love the most when they see my car.

I often come out of a store and see people looking in it! Makes me proud and mad at the same time!

I saw that color in person this weekend when I was getting an oil change and loved the way it looked, though this one had the black interior, that I like. Is this the same color as the Dark Slate Nissan use to offer, because my current 09 Altima is dark slate. Have you thought about getting the black wheels? What options did you add, if any?

I'm not sure on the color from the past, but it's a great color.

I kind of like the stock wheels. I think I'll keep them the way they are for now.

The way Nissan is packaging these, there aren't "options" you can add. They are all packaged accordingly. The only model above this is the Platinum. You gain a few things, but you lose a few things too.

Yes, the stock wheels are very nice, think I want to add the black ones when I pick one up though. Was wondering if you added the spoiler, interior lighting, ground lighting, etc when I mentioned the options. I considered the Platinum, but the SR suspension is a better fit for me and I won't miss anything from the Platinum.

I'm waiting until I see incentives before taking another ride to the dealer. First visit was a waste of time, deal offered was far from good.

I did not get the accent lighting. It's not really my thing. Pretty neat though.

mls277: I bought mine. There were no lease deals running yet.
