Just spotted one Kizashi on a Parking lot of a supermarket yesterday. I took a picture from the side and I really like this silver steel color. What I don't like are these 16 inch wheels which are just too small for Kizashi. Anyway it is on winter tyres.

Unfortunately, it was dark.

Hopefully, they didn't think I was flipping them off or something. LoLs

LOL...I saw this thread and totally forgot about a photo I took last summer. So there is a white Kizashi on the right side of the photo that was abandoned on the side of the road where there is a right-hand turn lane. It appears in the photo as if someone is just driving it in the right-hand turn lane, but it's actually sitting still; abandoned. I saw it sitting on the side of the road on my way to the gym one day and thought to take a photo if it was still there on my way back. Sure enough, it was still there. My first thought was that I felt bad for the owner. There appears to be temporary tags on the white Kizashi as if someone had just bought it only to end up having the dang thing break down on them and they had to leave it on the side of the road. :cry: It's a nice looking white one though.

That wouldn't happen to be a cemetery in the grassy patch behind the broken down Kizashi would it?

Yeah, you're right, 16' wheels just don't work with it at all!
I'm not so sure about the colour, too plain jane I think but that white one abandoned looks lovely, seems the alloys make a huge difference!

On my short drive home today (~25 min) I saw not 1, not 2 but 3 Kizashis! That’s the most I’ve ever seen in a day. A silver one, a white one and a red one. I have been seeing more and more recently, but maybe they’re just the same ones

Where are you based? I’m wondering if the Kizashi was more popular in some areas than others thanks to its available AWD, like how Subarus are especially popular in the northeast and northwest regions of the United States.
