" This little squirt of a car has both impressed and disappointed in equal measure during its first several thousand miles. Impressive is its ability to carry four adults hundreds of miles at a clip in a high level of comfort. Disappointing is its lack of fit and finish. Extremely impressive in its frugal thirst for fuel -- day in, day out, through some of New York&amp;#039;s worst commuting conditions, including ice, snow, sleet, slush and totally snarled traffic -- the Versa returned a solid 28 mpg running on cheap 87 octane. The drivetrain&amp;#039;s lack of willingness to get up and go when you need that sudden burst to pass a tractor-trailer or shoot through a rapidly closing hole in traffic is disappointing. I guess you can&amp;#039;t have it both ways. Now the biggest disappointment of all: Ahead of its regular service appointment, the Versa&amp;#039;s Check Engine warning light has come on, though it seems to be running fine and nothing obvious seems wrong. We&amp;#039;ve gotten used to occasional Check Engine lights, caused by a bad tank of gas, or a gas cap not tightened correctly, but this one is as constant as a night light. We&amp;#039;ll let the dealer tell us what the problem is, while he fixes a poorly fitted airbag cover and other niggling problems.
