Re: Honda Accord Sport Kizashi Comparo
Having moved from an AWD Kizashi to a Mazda 6, my two main observations on switching to a newer-designed, larger FWD sedan are: Improved refinement/ride, and decreased driving dynamics (i.e. fun). The difference in dimensions, and in my case, in AWD vs FWD makes for a different driving experience. H...

3 years since the Kiz
I've been driving a '15 Mazda 6 since I turned in the SLS three years ago. The Mazda is a nice daily driver, and I am overall happy with it.

Re: "downgrade" from nav-unit to rockford fosgate head unit
This would be interesting to see done. Our Kizashi neighbor (only 1 of 3 that I've ever seen in our area) has the regular RF system and she loves it. It definitely sounds louder than ours when she's parking next to us in the garage. That's the separate RF amp which is pushing out the power. I could...

Re: "downgrade" from nav-unit to rockford fosgate head unit
Also - the Kenwood used RCA jacks although the RF amp could take line-levels. Not sure if the "RF" unit (was it a Kenwood piece anyway?) is wire line-level or not.

Not as quiet as the Kizashi, AND it's got a key (the biggest potential deal-breaker, that key. I love my touch doors and pushbutton start).
Key vs Kizashi.......hmmmm.......

Re: who know this navigation unit for the kizashi?
There was no Rockford Fosgate head unit. The RF amp and speaker system was pre-amped off a Kenwood head unit, which displayed a Rockford Fosgate splash screen and badge.

Re: AWD MODE
I kept mine in AWD just about all the time. More fun especially through curves and corners. No noticeable difference from FWD in any other way.
