I was getting into my Kizashi at the grocery store and an Avalanche pulled into the spot two spaces down. I opened the sunroof and put the windows down and looked over to find the driver standing in front of his truck looking at me. Then he asked, "How do you like your car?" It was the first time that someone I didn't know asked me about my Kizashi so I was caught by surprise. Turns out he owned one too. He told me that he had to trade it in and he missed it because it's such a beautiful car and was so much fun to drive.

Has anyone else run into a previous Kizashi owner?

I have not run into former owners, but one of the reasons I searched for a Kizashi forum and joined this one was to try figure out if the former owner of my car was a member.
The car had some cosmetic mods so I thought the owner was the kind of person to be on the forum.

Nope.
May have been a member here, but I did not find any posts of pictures that were my car.

I thought if one sold his car he will no longer visit the enthusiast forums of the previous car?

Not true...I stay somewhat active on the Rubicon Owner's Forum to keep abreast of the vehicle (past and present)....never know when I might decide to be foolish enough to get in to another Jeep, seeing how we'll never see a Jimny over here.

Oh, I was more interested in seeing the posts related to the car than actually communicating with the previous owner via the forum. Given the car had some mods on it, I thought maybe there would have been posts on it.
