"Great Handling, Awesome looks. Very comfortable interior, suites a family of 4 just fine. Great Gas mileage, comfortable ride, sporty look and fun to drive. I have the 6 speed manual transmission and it has a good amount of get up and go for a 4 cyl. Overall you cannot find a better car for the price!"

A real head-turner

"With the Kizashi, Suzuki broke through with a full-sized winner. It rides big and provides all of the creature comforts a person could want. Its style inside and out turns heads. I've actually had people follow me to find out what I'm driving! The downside for Suzuki is what always has plagued the product line -- too few dealers and no meaningful advertising. But I love having a unique automobile in a parking lot filled with predictable derivative offerings from the big boys. I regret that Suzuki could not break through in the American market. But I have absolutely no regrets for having owned them. Did I tell you that I average 34.9 mpg?"

"I was looking at a 2012 Subaru Legacy, but after comparing the equipment side by side, the Kizashi is hands down the best value. If you are looking to be outside of all the toyota's, Honda's and Subaru's circle, this is overall the best choice. I just love the nice upscale feel/lighting of the interior. Especially with the leather seat package. And the awd is great to have in bad climate. The engine is a 2.4 litre, and is chain driven, which does not require timing belt change...which means less maintence and more driving enjoyment, which i really like."

"I just bought a 2011 Suzuki Kizashi. It is too early for me to give a fare rating on the car. But I can tell you this. I am 6 feet 2 inches tall and weigh 380 lbs. I was surprised on how well I can fit into this car and how easy it is to get in and out of it. I have plenty of room inside this car. Grant it, I won't be getting in the back seat anytime. But the front has more then enough room for me."

"Our 2010 Kizashi has been a wonderful car for us.The car feels solid, and can be bought at a very low price. It is easy to do the maintenance myself. Suzuki even has a website were you can get all the info on maintenance, and repair procedures, for a very small fee. We average 29 miles per gallon, with an average speed of 35 MPH on our dash display. Ours is an all wheel drive Kizashi. I just bought another one on 8/28/12, a 2012 AWD S model. We have two now!"
