2010 SE Impressions and questions

OK, so I drove three hours yesterday to look at a 2012 SE with 12K miles on it. My first CVT. Boy was it weird. Not nearly as peppy as the MT GTS I drove a few weeks ago. A couple questions. There was engine vibration, almost a shaking that I didn't think was normal. I have only driven one Kiz befor...

Re: Is the stock sound system good?

Thanks all. It sounded pretty good. I've lost some hearing so I can't tell a lot of difference when it comes to the finer aspects of audio fidelity.

Is the stock sound system good?

Is the stock sound system in the SE decent? While it would be nice to blow the doors off with the R/F, I don't have to have it if the stock system's OK. Also, I've seen it listed as 7 speakers. What are the 7? I imagine front doors, front tweeters and read deck. What's the 7th? In the R/F it would b...

Re: Should I become a first time Kizashi buyer?

Price is a big factor for me. I'm looking for sub-15K.

Re: Decisions, decisions...

I just feel a lot more comfortable buying an orphan car that has quite a bit more bumper to bumper on the clock. Only 1000 miles left is a little scary. But the rewards a good if the SLS does not have any problems. Plus I'd rather have silver than black.

Re: Decisions, decisions...

New variable to add to the equation. They just dropped my price on the SE to $1000 less than the SLS. I had basically decided on the SLS but now? Boy this is hard!

Re: Should I become a first time Kizashi buyer?

I think the law of supply and demand is catching up. I've been looking for a GTS or SLS and they are hard to find. I'll have to drive a couple hundred miles to look at one this weekend. I already negotiated an out the door price provided I like it. I saw the NC car that you've been talking about. It...

2012 and 2010 SE differences

I thought I already posted this, but I don't see it. Sorry if it's doubled. Does anyone know if there are any differences between the 2010 and 2012 SE that would make them drive or handle differently? Interior noise perhaps? The reason I ask is that the 2012 is three hours away to test drive and the...

Re: Decisions, decisions...

I drive about 12K a year so it's a little less than 2 years. You're right the the gap will certainly close as the vehicle ages. It still has until 2018 on the power train or another 65K miles. However the 2012 has until 2019 or another 88K miles. Unfortunately, I think I have to see and drive them b...

Decisions, decisions...

Hi Everyone, new poster here. I'm an SX4 Crossover owner and I'm seriously thinking of buying a Kizashi. I'm currently trying to decide between a 2011 SLS with about 35K miles on it and a 2012 SE with about 12K miles on it. They come in within a couple hundred dolloars of each other so price is not ...
