Mine has the colored indicators.

But the salesman said it was just something Nissan had a 3rd party doing for a while and they've stopped doing it. He said some guy would come out to the lot after the vehicles were delivered and put them on. I'm not sure they're of great value and they'll probably just get stolen.
To answer some of the above questions:

Also this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire while driving). Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire which can cause the lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature as described above, check the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light OFF.
