Wife's Cavalier has met an unfortunate end just north of 237k miles. Auto trans is toast and not worth replacing on a car that old, especially considering the paint is shot, the engine leaks oil, the windshield is cracked, 3 of 4 speakers don't work, the dash is cracked, the vent selector doesn't work, and probably a couple things I'm forgetting. She is interested in replacing it with a leftover stock 2016 Versa Note (the hatchback). Base model with stick shift and manual everything. Anyone know of any glaring issues with these cars or a reason not to buy one? The comparable Ford, Chevy, and Honda models all use a timing belt (do not want) and the Yaris hatch is just too small.
