Kizashi Club

It looks like the Kizashi hit show room floors in Japan this week, and it sounds like they will be making it over here soon. (Probably already on the boat)

Starting price $22,000
Fully loaded $24,000
What you get to pick from (for now)

EPA Fuel Economy Estimates:
21/31 manual FWD with 16-inch wheels
20/29 manual FWD with 17/18-inch wheels
~Kizashi manual 0-60 mph: 7.5 seconds (mfr)
Numbers below tested on a 90 degree day so it can probably do better.
1/4 mile (sec. @ mph) 16.0 @ 86.6
0-60 with 1-ft rollout (sec.) 8.0

23/31 CVT FWD with 16-inch wheels
23/30 CVT FWD with 17/18-inch wheels
~Kizashi CVT 0-60 mph: 8.3 seconds (maybe this might slide up or down a little)


23/30 CVT AWD with 16-inch wheels
22/29 CVT AWD with 17/18-inch wheels
~Kizashi CVT AWD 0-60 mph: 8.? seconds (Haven't seen anything I trust yet)
I'm thinking mid 8s to low 9s


20/29 6 speed manual AWD with 17/18-inch wheels....? Please

The release date is somewhere around December, which, imo, is a bad time for a car to be released. But the earlier the better I guess. I just hope they're ready, as this is pretty much Suzuki's last hope.

Yeah, I hope it gets here a little early... I talked to the Suzuki dealer last week and they hadn't even heard of the car yet. Needless to say I was a little disappointed in them
