That’s an interesting choice. Judging by the fact that Nissan Makes sub par compact cars in the US also. I have no idea why somebody would import that.

Probably just to be different, when else in the history of time has someone utter, “Oh cool a Micra!” Besides me, just now ?

Fair nuff, haha.
I’d probably take a picture just because of the unique factor lol.

Or they just didn’t want to let go of their old car.

Awesome car, awesome color. Nissan NEEDS to sell them down here! They’re already available in Canada and meet all the standards required.

IMHO it looks a bit like a special needs hatchback, I don’t know about “needs” to be here

Interestingly, it’s a Japanese spec one so it’s a March.
Edit: reads article again. The stock picture is of a March, the Micra looks a little different.

Its already dark here, so the back is that I got the best look at; and it read Micra, the headlights look just like the one in the picture; the grill may have been slightly different

Yes, the Japanese one has the front indicators hidden behind the grille as in the pic, the rest of them (my mother has one, I was driving it today!) are like this:

I read that as ‘Nissan Micra in Washington’ and saw the picture of a RHD brown car and thought ‘well that’s not surprising as they are made only six miles away in Sunderland, England’, then I saw the ‘D.C.’ bit and it made some sense.

Somehow I’d rather have access to the Micra than the Versa Note.

Yes. But I think our Washington came a few (couple of hundred) years before your state and capitol which were named after the President. ;)
Pop up to Pennsylvania and you’ll find many places named after British places such as Carlisle, Cumberland named after Carlisle, Cumberland (now Cumbria), England.
Wasn’t Georgetown named after King George? (not sure on that one).

I think it is, yeah one of the weirdest things about moving from the mid-west (Chicago area) to Maryland is going from French / Native American named towns and such. (Fine the French helped us, and we kinda kicked the natives out) to the east coast, is EVERYTHING is still named after British stuff, “Prince George’s county”, Essex, Cumberland, in just Maryland. All the shit on this coast is named after British stuff, which is fine now, but come on do like the Amish did change it to intercourse or something. We won we should name the stuff after our stuff!

But you’d have to come up with a lot of names. For instance you’ve got seven places called Carlisle from Carlisle, Pennsylvania down to a tiny settlement of Carlisle, Washington.
Carlisle, PA even has a church with a sign outside saying it was named after (my) Carlisle, England. Love it.
