Just returned from New Zealand where I saw a bunch of Kizashi's. I wouldn't say there was a lot or even very popular, but I saw way more there than I ever have here on the US west coast! I don't think I noticed any of them with sport trim. Some had hitches on them, very popular in NZ, and one was loaded with 3 surfboards on top.

I saw at least 5 or 6 in the parking garage at our hospital over the past couple of days. As I said earlier, our local dealer pounded the snot out of them.

Our former-dealer-turned-Mitsubishi-dealer has 2 of them in stock now, I believe; a '13 Sport GTS AWD and an S AWD (not sure of the year). They seem to have them on a regular basis.

Play the lottery man!
Seriously! I'll bet on you. 8-)

Spotted the same one (I think) two days in a row at the same spot! I'm thinking of leaving a note. :lol:

Wait, where did yours break? Is this some sort of known issue?

Saw a black Kiz this morning during the morning commute on the west side of Madison. FYI, it looked like your driver's side headlight is out :-)

Funny, because mine is black and I occasionally have issues with my driver's side headlight, but I won't be in Madison until Tuesday. Are you from the future?!?!

I may or may not have figured out how to rig up a flux capacitor... ;-)

A Black Kizashi has been parked outside my office a couple times this week. The first time I noticed it, I was coming back from lunch, riding in my boss' 2015 Camaro SS. Despite sitting in a car that was literally 3 times more than what I spent on Azumi (and over 3 times more horsepower), I still jumped up and had to point the random Kizashi out to him.

I went to go and inspect it up close to see what it was, on my own, later on. Seemed to be a late model S AWD (had the thick straight spoked rims). My coworkers on the 4th floor caught me snooping around this car, and thought I was gonna try and break into it or something... :lol:

The weird thing was it has New Jersey plates. So if it's here in the middle of Kansas, it's a long ways from home.

3 years I've had my Kizashi, and I finally got to meet another Kizashi owner today. I didn't get to chat with him very long, but I was able to point him to the only authorized dealer to do Suzuki work in KC. It was nice to help out another Kizashi owner in need.
