Re: Boy, do I miss my Kizashi!

I had my Kizashi in the shop for few days to repair hail damage and the loaner was a Caddy CTS. I was mortified. When I returned the Caddy I handed the keys to the attendant and said, "Here's the keys, this Caddy's late for a funeral." Two days of shame puttering around town in a Caddy.

Re: new rattle since recall

My Kizashi SE has less than 700 miles and I have a rattle on the passenger side adjacent to the glove box. It comes and goes.

Re: USB Connection

I am using a 4GB USB thumb drive (Best Buy house brand) and it works fine. I ripped the MP3s at a higher bit rate and it sounds great. Unfortunately I have not been able to get my iPod working yet, but I am pefectly content using the thumb drive.

Re: Just got my new Kizashi

I've owned my Kizashi (AWD/SE/CVT) for 4 days so far and love it. This is the first car I've owned in nearly 30 years without a manual shift so it has been a bit of culture shock driving an automatic. (Age and a bit of arthritis have caught up to me.) I've owned an Altima, Passat, Jetta, Contour SVT...

Re: Fog Light Kit Installation Question

Greetings, proud new owner of an AWD SE in Dark Blue with a quick question. I am planning on having the factory fog light package installed on my SE. The kit price at around $240.00 isn't too bad. However, I was wondering if anyone else has had them installed by the dealer and what kind of labor ch...

Re: 2011 Kizashi Sport arrived at Suzuki of Wichita

More ponies under the hood are always welcome, but that comes with the caveat of a higher sticker. At some point the Kizashi stops being a good value. Personally, I really like the improvements for 2011. Suzuki has made a great looking car even nicer. I just bought an AWD SE as my dealer didn't have...
