    lol. Seaside Pearl was on the top 3 list of colour choices. The other two were Salsa Red Pearl and Tideland Pearl. You can probably guess which one I ended up with.

    Oh? Didn't even notice! Wow, that Deep Blue Pearl looked fantastic online but I haven't seen one in real life yet. The only blue has been the original LEAF light blue.

    Yup, NIssan has changed their blue in consecutive years. The 2015 blue was (slightly) different from 11-14, and the 16 is all new and far darker. Again, the only year it will likely be available, as rumours are there will be a redesigned Leaf in 2017 (but we personally like the quirky design of the current model :)).

    On a side note, my fuel economy continues to worsen (see pic). Now worse than 8L/100km on this tank... o_O The SOC dropped to 19% on the highway.... Yikes.

    Just 4 more days... Just 4 more days.... :(

    8 liters per 100 km is bad, yikes. Good luck with your new ride. :)

    Ouch! And the heat isn't helping either.

    I challenge anyone to do worse than that. Lol. :LOL:

    The worst I ever saw in our Canadian Winters was about 6.5 or so...
