Re: Smart Key

Maybe I missed something...I don't have this issue where I have to let the car warm up, but what if you had both keys with you. Start the car, leave one key inside and hold the other key with you so you can lock the door. Would that work, or not because the other key would enable someone to open th...

Re: Premium fuel a waste of money?

I have a small local gas station that does sell ETHANOL FREE gas. I believe it is only in 87 Octane, which is all I ever run in my Kizashi. It was a little more expensive I think .05 more per gallon? I filled up once with it and I think I might have done a little better MPG (1-2) But that is not a v...

Re: Really poor gas mileage

Ron, I attribute the hills to my poor mpg. The crazy thing is, I have a Ford 500 V6 prior to my kizashi and I did about the same if not better at times mpg on it?

It was a great car, and due to the weight and the HP it did have, I have learned to accept my 20-21 mpg and enjoy the car.

Re: Kizashi Buyback?

Thanks. I am in Pittsburgh, PA. I went to my dealer and found out they are NOT leasing any suzuki's. So, I am out of that market. They did however work me a pretty nice initial deal on a 2013 Buick Verano, leather edition non-turbo. It was VERY NICE! I wabted my payments lower and we are still going...

Re: Kizashi Buyback?

I am leasing a 2010 and my lease is almost up. I was thinking the complete opposite, I was actually thinking about going in and trying to buy a 2013 Loaded SLS and see if I can get a STEAL on it because they are trying to dump them? Other than my lackluster mpg, I really like this car. I am not big ...

Re: 2012 Kizashi

Wow, same cars one was $27,000 the other was $20,000 (minus the 4,00 miles). Were you able to buy that as a demo?
