i really hope this is a good car, both performance and safety wise...

but it dosent look good... does it?

really lack the "X" factor...

hate to say this, but the new batch of korean cars look way better..

[Nautilus]

The centre console looks like Kia's Forte.

[Ferraricalifornia]

nope....

 

centre console is solely copied from the SX4 sedan's....

[Zyrofillica]

nope....

 

centre console is solely copied from the SX4 sedan's....

 

front looks a bit like vw design. back is awesome though.

[Ixiz]

Haiz ...As usual ...Suzuki like to comes up "touch wood" name ..

 

First is Su Su Ki .. <lose lose away>

 

Now is Ki Za Shi .. <go die early>

 

Interestingly .. In Japanese, Kizashi means "omen", "sign", or "warning" possibly to suggest to other automobile manufacturers that the Kizashi is an example of products to come from Suzuki in the future. <From wiki>

I dont see how any car equipped with a CVT box can ever be a respectable driver's car.

[Mike1234]

Kinda too short IMO...

 

Maybe if its longer abit....

 

It will look nicer...

 

Generally, Front looks like VW Jetta...

 

Body looks like extended SX4 sedan but kinda short...

 

Rear abit weird weird like tat....

 

Overall, i think its a decent car to choose....

 

Compared to Legacy, JDM Accord, Camry, I45, Teana, Mazda 6...

 

I actually still prefer Teana [laugh]

[Tipo33]

Tested it.....me still thinks Mazda 6 and Ford Mondeo way better in handling.gearbox is the major letdown for the performance,typical of cvt feel.it should be better with a 6speed auto instead.interior wise not too bad attempt for a jap saloon thou i dun understand why it is built that size???in btwn an altis and camry????whats the point?

[Yaloryalor]

Kizashi sounds like Kai Si怕死！haha..

[Snowblind]

Have seen concept pics of this car for afew yrs and its has gone from low, wide and sporty to just ugly.

[Altantic]

The car looks very cool and aggresive...

[Alfisti168]

saw it in metal. Looks amazing. Understated, yet exudes a kind of aura due to the flared wheelarches (nice!)

 

One of the best japanese cars to come in these few years (not that many had come anyway).
