The Northern Lights color of my Ariya is fitting of its name! At certain angle and lighting, my car is sometimes black, dark blue, maroon, and then green. I would have pay more if I knew I am getting a color shifting car!

That’s exactly how they advertised it!

Since you bought a MY and NL Ariya in the same week, who’s the lucky one that gets to keep the Ariya as a daily driver?

Haha! We rotate since only 1 car fits in the garage. Whoever comes home first go into the garage, and then whoever leaves early takes the car in the driveway. Surprising we enjoy driving both cars.

Just out of curiosity, how's the car insurance between the Ariya and MY with same apple to apple coverage?
Funny you asked, because I happened to be a State Farm agent! Because the Ariya is a new model, we don’t have enough data to rate it correctly, so we based it on the MSRP. Given what we already know about the MY claims data, it is rated more accurately. For now, the MY is roughly 10% higher in premium.

Lucky for you, your clients are on this forum. 😁. We are your Ariya family. I hear you have to sponsor this forum in order to promote your service….

All State Farm agents are independent. I am on this forum for personal use, and not to promote my service. Just happy to answer your question, 🥹

Who knew that a simple conversation can lead to something bigger and better for you. 😉

Please keep us updated on the MY vs Ariya.. You are the only person on this forum that purchased both back to back.
While at Tustin Nissan this afternoon, look what I saw at the dealer lot. A NL Empower+

Check out the mfgr add ons!! Must be a cancel reservationist?

Not sure if Empower+ would be a cancelled reservation (trim level was not available back in the reservation days) - although it is close to the Premiere trim, the kick plates came standard with the Premiere. Looks like they are adding in the exterior lighting though.
Looks like they have received lot of Ariya's. Do you know how many Ariya's they were able to sell.

I didn’t count but they have more Engage+ than other high level trims. I think maybe 25 Ariyas total? They do have one Copper Premiere on the front lot that I saw.

If this Empower + was a cancelled order it was likely generated by a “shop at home“ order format available to the public after the official launch on September 27, 2022. My local dealer has a NL Evolve + arriving this week that had been ordered in that manner and to date the party that generated the order has yet to set foot in their showroom or even attempt to make contact with my dealer. So much for Nissan feeling obliged to fill our early reservation program orders first, right? 🤨 However the shop at home orders were placed too late to qualify for a tax credit opportunity or receive our $1240. reservation credit. So I’ll stop whining now and happily take my $8740.00 discount off the bottom line, thank you very much. IMO that discount in itself will be “worth the wait”!

I also reserved a Fisker Ocean. Should I replace the Tesla or Ariya when the time comes? I know, I am obsess with EVs

2023 Prius Prime if you can get your hands on one.

Should you get a chance to drive a Fisker Ocean, I'd love to hear what you think of it!

You’re asking the Ariya forum if you should replace your Ariya or your Tesla?🤣😅😂. M Y are a dime a dozen and at least for the moment Ariya is unique. But if you must have a quicker off the line start than your FWD Ariya can provide, then you know ya gotta dump the Tesla and buy the Fisker.

I have been looking at Empower+ , they all have the same three options (carpet floor mats, kick plate, and external lighting) My local dealer has a few permieres but I do not like the brown aero covers on the northern light exterior color. Funny I was looking at the Tustin one too... there is another one at Irvine Nissan.
