Hello everyone!
A few months ago I bought my first Suzuki - a 2010 Kizashi S. I'm loving it so far! I was having trouble picking a car because I wanted a performance edge and something a bit uncommon, but also needed a car to get through the rough winters here. So my Kizashi is now the dd/winter/autocross car!
I went with the manual transmission S trim level so that I can start from scratch and build it up the way I want. So far, I have the RRM catback and a few other minor bolt-ons. Saving up for a turbo, haha. Track vids coming next season!
I'm looking forward to meeting and learning from all of you, and hopefully I can contribute a bit as well!
Hello From Pittsburgh, PA!

Welcome! Good to have another one here. What other mods do you have? Also, any pics of the car?

Thanks! Pics coming soon... I'll have to take a few over Thanksgiving with my new camera. Lately it's dark by the time I get home from work.
I also have a lightweight pulley and some brake pads... nothing major yet. Most of my mod money has been going to my Camaro lately. (Also, love the GTO in your sig - LS power!!!)

Very nice. Yeah, pics would be cool.
Funny you mention it. My GTO is up for sale. I'm getting something a little more efficient (Kizashi).

Welcome to the community!
Where did you buy the car?
I got mine from the guys/gals at Wright (Wexford, PA) None of my local dealers had any S MT in stock, so I had to go out of state to get it. What a better way to bond with a new car than a 300+ mile ride home?

Yeah, I'm definitely getting better gas mileage out of the Kizashi than I am the Camaro... it averages only around 15 mpg ever since I put in a giant cam. I bought the Kizashi after I decided 480rwhp wasn't a good idea in winter, haha. Best of luck with your sale!
Thanks for the welcome Alex! I actually bought mine from Wright as well! I live about 20 minutes from Wexford. I was really happy with their service there. That's one heck of a drive for your new car!

Welcome from a fellow PA resident! I'm outside of Philadelphia, though, so not very close to you. Best of luck with the car though!
