well yesterday , having to go to my local wallyworld to pick up prescription . upon leaving I saw a white GTS and the couple walking towards the door of the store. I got my window down and started asking as many questions as I could... we laughed a lot about things then I asked how much he liked it and he said he loves his car. it is a 2012 and he recently got it . I turned to how it handles in snow . and of course since we haven't had any yet, He is waiting like I am.. Mine is black and he was saying he wished his was as well. I told him. hey at least you can keep yours looking cleaner longer. Mine seems to get dirty WAY to fast.. even just sitting in my driveway.

Nice! Only time I came across one there was in Hamamatsu.
Hamamatsu!? That's where Suzuki is from and their HQ is located there. You probably saw one owned by a Suzuki employee or a Suzuki corporate car.

As for recent Kizashi sightings, I miraculously saw two within 30 minutes of each other. Both were driving on the 495/Capital Beltway. A blue Kizashi Sport and a white Kizashi. It's definitely nice to see other people's Kizashis because it reminds me how good the styling is.

I see several in my area, since our former dealer pounded the crap out of Suzukis while they were still around. I think our dealer was one of the largest (by volume) in the country; Altoona, PA - 5-Star Suzuki. It's now a Mitsubishi dealer under new ownership, but they're now pounding the snot out of selling Mitsubishis. If you ever want to see the world's most dense populous of jelly beans (the Mirage), come to Altoona, PA... LOL We have so many of those things running around, even Jelly Belly would be envious.

Ha, I bought my Kizashi in Altoona, used. But it originally came from W VA.

I bought my Kizashi from Wilkes-Barre, PA and had it shipped to VA on a trailer.

Spotted black AWD Kizashi, possibly 2010-2011 gts or sls in central VA about half hour ago. Didn't seem to have issues in the unplowed, snow ridden neighborhood street.

Saw a silver Kizashi AWD this morning on the Baltimore/Washington Parkway heading into DC. It was an Uber.

Well, my boss was on his way to work and THOUGHT he spotted me on I-64 near Suffolk. Mine is the only Kizashi he's ever seen so he played a little pass and cut back. Nothing extreme but enough to annoy whoever was driving the Ice Blue Kizzy. (mine's silver) He told me about it when he got to work. We both had a good laugh. I told him he needed to memorize my plate or at least look for the Vikings emblem on the trunk lid.
