That is a very unique sighting indeed! I don't think I've ever seen one trailered Kizashi moreless two. In fact, it's rare to even see two non-trailerer Kizashis side-by-side.
I’ve been side-by-side with another Kizashi, as well as a few cars down from one in the same lane; I don’t think either scenario will ever happen again. Still haven’t seen a Kizashi in probably over a year.
The best I can get at this point is being next to another Suzuki car like a Grand Vitara, or a Suzuki motorcycle. Or both simultaneously, which has happened once. Three Suzukis close by in this day and age is not common in Southern California lol

Spotted this on a little drive late last night.
That's me seen 3 now in Scotland outwith my own!
Saw a white one in Glasgow 2 days ago, pretty sure it was a 63 plate but can't quite remember.
Was wondering if it was the one I saw 2 & half years ago but that turns out to have been a 61 plate as you can see above!
So if anyone knows someone with a white 63 plate Kizashi in Glasgow, that may have been the one I saw!
Finally saw another after probably over a year since. A white Kizashi in Huntington Beach, CA. Seeing another always reminds me of how much I like the Kizashi's styling, especially in this era of angular vehicles with disproportionate grills.

What amazes me is how the Kizashi still looks the same as designs that are years newer, like Buick's offerings with the similar tail pipe finishers.
Yeah, everyone is either trying to be a stealth fighter (new Corvette) or an electric wannabe (new bmw). It's a funny time to be a automotive styling engineer...

Still fairly common around here......
Makes sense as I think the Kizashi was just far more popular in regions that had snowy winters. About a decade ago when the Kizashi debuted, there weren't too many sedans with available AWD so the Kizashi appealed as an alternative to a Subaru. When the Kizashi debuted, Suzuki offered AWD in every single model they sold. However, given the brand's small profile in the US and Canada, I think the regions that didn't need AWD for winter conditions overlooked them. I certainly live in such a region as I go many months between seeing another Kizashi in Southern California. However, when I went to Oregon in 2020, I saw two within a week.

I agreed that the Kizashi's design was not radical but still something interesting. I often think the Buick Regal of the Kizashi's generation looked similar with the rather rounded shape and exhaust finishers. The front of the Kizashi looked a bit like the Mk V VW Jetta but the Kizashi Sport models definitely had more of an aggressive aesthetic.

I never tied the front to the Jetta, but it definitely is similar. Does make sense why someone on here was able to get the fog lights from the Jetta for the Kizashi as they were the same part number.
Now that I think about it, I've seen more exotics, GTRs, etc than another Kizashi.
