How many of the cars in stock have the J1772 CCS DC FC port?

Do you assist with obtaining the Fast DC chargers for installing in our home?
You aren't serious are you? Good luck w/that.

I doubt you'd be able to find one for under $15.5K. The cheapest CHAdeMO DC FC (not compatible w/the Spark EV) I know of is http://nissanqc.com/ for $15.5K. And from http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?p=332063#p332063
Information provided by Nissan at Plugin 2013 indicates average cost for hardware and installation at dealers for the DC FC is $49K.
Perhaps you're looking to get an L2 EVSE installed at home so that you can charge at 240 volts? Perhaps http://www.mychevysparkev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3549, might help?
 
I don't know....that's why I'm asking. I'm new here...so I'm asking questions I don't know the answers to.

To clarify, DC Fast Chargers are not appropriate for home installations. The hardware itself is very expensive, not even including the transformers necessary to supply sufficient AC current. For nearly all owners, a 240V Level 2 EVSE will be sufficient to fully recharge your vehicle nightly. Any licensed electrician can install an EVSE, and GM will subsidize EVSE's purchased from their preferred vendor.

FWIW, I know our very own TonyWilliams did want to install a CHAdeMO DC FC at/near his home long ago, when he still had Leafs.

Now he has 2 RAV4 EVs, neither of which has any DC FC ability, so AFAIK, he nixed that idea.
