What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Mercury Mariner
| Price of the Mercury Mariner: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD |
Truck was not cheap, no choices to delete options, dealer did not negotiate, and the only way to get below MSRP was by using CostCo discount buying service. Many dealers charging $2K-$3K market fees because of demand. Demand far exceeds supply. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD |
Price was too high for me to consider, especially in the hybrid configuration. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan Versa
| Price of the Nissan Versa: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
With the $2K incentive, I got a useful, comfortable hatchback for about $12K, everything included. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 107-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I was looking for the most inexpensive car I could find. We paid $11,700 with TTL after a $500 tradein with payments of $218 a month. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
We got my Versa for 11,000 plus T.T.T. Total was about 12,800. The MSRP for mine was 13,100 + T.T.T. + 95 for floor mats + 750 for the road hazard contract (nitrogen in tires) + 750 for destination and handling. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Dirt cheap |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
affordable!! |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Paid $12,600 for 2008 Versa 4 Cylinder Manual with the only upgrade being cruise control. Great price for a brand new car. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Insurance is low. Price of vehical was low to buy. Low intrest rate for 5 years = low payments. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Lots of features for the money you pay. I paid $12,908 before tax and I got the 1.8S manual, power package, ABS, kickplates, floormats and a couple of other things. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The price was very reasonable, and not because my brother was the salesperson. (one reason we bought it though, other is my wife liked it better than Fit, which I would have preferred for superior reliability.) |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
new car for nearly the same price as some used cars I was looking at |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
not much. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
The V fit my budget nicely . . . and the interest rate offered was a bonus. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It is a relatively cheap car overall, and definitely in its class of vehicle. A value, for sure. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It was far less expencive than others in its class. And came with more features than anyone else. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Reasonable price for the available options, plus a supplier discount from my employer. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Less than $500 a month for 2 new cars, which also includes dealer maintenance and extended warrantee. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Under $20,000 no contest |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It was one of the cheapest cars in its class. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The competition when I was buying this was the Toyota Yaris, and this car was quite a bit less than the Yaris with AC, automatic transmission, and power locks/windows, etc., even when you counted in the government grant for $1000 for the Yaris. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Reasonably low priced given the available features. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Low price and you get a heck of a lot more than from a civic or Fit. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
When we purchased the Versa we compared it with the Fit, the Yaris and several other small hatch backs. There are other models that may be cheaper or get slightly better gas mileage, but considering all the variables the Versa wins hands down. |
| Price of the Nissan Versa: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 107-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
It was around 2000$ more than the Yaris with less features than come with my Yaris. The payments were more. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
New cars from Nissan were overall slightly higher than other models we looked at, with no bargaining room. |
