I'll be interested to see how this stripper model is equipped.   My guess is well enough for most people with windows, locks and air and some kind of radio.  What else do you really need?

Cheers,
John M.

We're getting the 2013 in June of the model year?

Guess they had truckloads of 2012's to move...

With the "price adjustment", it makes for a much better daily (short-)driver than the iMiEV.

I've driven the i-MiEV and the LEAF back to back. There is no comparison. The i-MiEV is so cheap in comparison, in ride and quality throughout.

Stopped by Oakville Nissan yesterday and checked out a 2011 Leaf (similar). Spoke to a sales guy who has no info on the 2013 (surprise). Dealer have to be Leaf qualified in order to carry product.

Inside has high roof which is handy for those over 6'. Wish the car was better looking and less bug eyed.

On another note got to see a real nice GTR (sold) in the showroom. Longer car than I recalled when up close.
Past New (8yrs) Car Dealer for : BMW, Lexus, Nissan and Toyota<br />Past Used Vehicle Dealer: All Makes and Models. Seen a lot of it. Drove a lot of it. <br />Four-stroke Otto Engine 1876. Modern timer, pop-up toaster 1919 keep convincing yourself that you have the "latest appliance".
