That is a lot of "test drive miles" It looks like it is about $1000 bucks off the sticker, but I would defiantly look the car over for any dents or dings.

I don't suppose you know if the owner's kid is a moron or not?....

500 miles with test drives... and the owner's kid driving it... wow... I'd probably just go to another Suzuki dealer if that's an option... that just sounds like super unprofessional and careless management to me.

500 test drive miles...and to top it off, with the owner's kiddo driving?

That's equivalent to 5k miles of wear in my book. ;)

Ditto, I'd rather go shop around first at other Suzuki dealers/check out other Kizashi offers before seriously looking into this..."Su-kizzy".

sounds similar to my story.

Just picked up a black SLS AWD with 423 miles on it for $27 out the door, complete with tax/license/plates. On top of it, I had them change the oil and detail the car. Options on the car are the "premium mats" and the side moldings.

I did use one of their $500 rebate promotions.

I didn't really care for the mileage that much, I put about 300 miles on it yesterday myself. Also, it doesn't affect your warranty, my car has warranty until 100,423 miles.

The color is actually "Black Pearl Metallic", so they do charge the $125 premium color fee, the only colors that don't get the extra charge are red and white.

I love this car, I hope it holds up great. I drove it yesterday with AWD on in the heavy rain at about 70mph on the freeway, it was glued to the road..very impressive

Is anyone actually going to follow suzuki's recommendation to change the oil every 7,500 miles?? :roll: I had a Toyota before this and their recommendation was every 5k.

Yep, a good rule of thumb would be every 5k...the consensus (I follow) from:
