Re: Hate to be the bearer of not great news.
In 2004 Suzuki had about 550 dealers, the list grew to over 700 in 2006. Currently that number stands at just about 150. It is difficult not to notice trends. I have to believe that Suzuki is still profitable in US, the question however remains that if much more profit can be made somewhere else in ...

Re: Hate to be the bearer of not great news.
I'm not sure which dealer OP is referring to, but 15 new suzuki's is probably average for a typical suzuki dealer.
the largest is Wichita Suzuki and they have over 200 new suzuki models

Re: Hate to be the bearer of not great news.
same situation here, loved the Kizashi, but discussing things with the Midwest dealer owner who i've come to be good friends with, I found out about the same disturbing news...this dealer though said he's "just gonna ride it out" Still, Kizashi is moving 400-500 units a month and SX4 1300-...

I traded in the '10 SLS AWD Kizashi today for '13 Acura RDX AWD + Tech, and I got 15k for it and I had bought it for $25.5k in March 2010. Edmunds TMV value for the trade was about 15800, but good luck getting anyo...

Re: What is the ONE thing that bugs you about your Kizashi?
if you want to raise the seat, it also moves forward....which makes it useless. I've seen the same setup in other cars as well, but my bmw does it right.

Re: whine/whirl noise 2012 CVT vids
true, but it is still a very capable car as obvious by the many reviews out there. I drove one yesterday and I thought it was interesting that reviewers thought the car was very quiet, which is "relative" at best, but I think the build quality of the Kizashi as it well as its cabin appoint...

Re: whine/whirl noise 2012 CVT vids
got offered $15k on 2010 SLS AWD with 32K miles. May trade it for '13 Acura RDX AWD with Tech package. They are offering it $2300 off MSRP and 10% off accessories/installation cost (Hitch, splash guards) and 2.9% for 72 months.
