Are there any other Kizashi owners in the Philadelphia area? I got mine on Friday, I haven't seen any others on the road yet.

I am picking up a Black/Black SE tonight, I am in South Philly. I have only seen one other Kizashi and it was about 3 months ago on the Ben Franklin Pkwy, Silver GTS or SLS.

Sounds like mine but I didn't have it yet. I drive down there fairly often, haven't seen it.

I'm from West Chester, I just got a black GTS, FWD, CVT last week from the Broomall dealership. I've put on about 500 miles on it and I've got to tell you all, I am loving this car! I went from a '98 Camaro to this, needed to make the change from college kid to family man. :mrgreen: I have not seen a single Kizashi in this area or in any other area for that matter. Mine is the first one I've seen on the road.

Thanks! My experience was pretty good. I test drove an SLS at a different dealer in Downingtown, then test drove the GTS at the Broomall one. We went there to check the car out on Friday, then drove off with it the next day. The salesman was pretty knowledgeable about the Kizashi but he didn't know that the turn signal had a 3-blink lane change, learned that from my own research. He dismissed the paint chip issue as a bandwagon thing - I haven't noticed any chips in mine so far so hopefully he's right. Plus they worked on getting me the best deal possible considering that my wife and I are just starting to build our credit. But yea, good experience all over.
