Hi everyone. I just picked up my new Kizashi last night. It is a Platinum "S" with AWD.
I have been a car nut my entire life. AT last count, i have owned almost 90 different vehicles(i am 54). Currently my wife and i own 4,
Her DD is a 2008 smart coupe. I traded in my 2009 smart convertible for my Kizashi. I also have a 2007 Caliber R/T with AWD, and she drives a 2009 Suzuki SX-4 Touring AWD with a 5 speed for her winter car.
I love the SX-4, so when i decided to replace my smart, i went to look at getting another one for me. that's when the salesman showed me the deal i could get on the Kizashi, and after driving one i was sold. I had been following the Kizashi from the original concept car, and had liked and wanted one when they finally came out, but the price was a bit more than i wanted spend. But they made me such a good deal, it only cost me $2500 more than the SX-4 i was looking at.
I am not sure what i am going to do with it. Probably get a set of wheels and use the stock steelies for some winter tires. I am goign to have to see what's out there in the aftermarket for the Kizashi. I will post up some picts of it, and my other cars, when i get a chance in the next few days.

You went from a smart to the Kizashi? Parking will be tougher but it should be nice to be able to carry a bag of groceries with you

Thanks ghost. Actually, you would be surprised how much shit the smart can carry. It really is an amazing little car. My wife LOVES her 08 smart, and has put 25K miles on it in 2 years, and gets 40-45MPG. I just didn't care for it as MY DD on the roads that i drive on. I had lusted after the Kizashi since i first saw the concepts, and when this smoking deal popped up, i pulled the trigger.
