New member here and I am considering a new Kizashi purchase.. Of the more recent buyers, can everyone tell me what kind of deal they got on a new 2010 SLS or GTS?

Hey there, I have a 2010 GTS, and I leased for 300$/month, 4 years, $2500 down at signing. The best offer I had for buying was around $24200.

Edit: AWD.

Sounds like a pretty good deal Ghost. Did you get that deal with the current $1,000 cash back?

Ghost... How does your Kizashi compare to the Legacy 2.5i? If you have or had the previous generation Legacy, they seem like they could be cousins. I would like to hear your thoughts and comparisons on the two of them.. Which one drove and handled better? How did they compare quality wise?

I got my azure gray fully loaded AWD SLS for $28000. Looking back, I could have done a lot better I think. The TMV on my car is around $26K, so I had room to negotiate. I would suggest going at the end of the month or even better yet, the end of the quarter (late December). If dealers are short on their quota they will be more willing to negotiate in your favor. But I would say you shouldn't pay more than $27K for a fully loaded SLS.

Good luck! I will say that in my experience I have had zero buyers remorse. I have had no paint issues and my amp issue was recently fixed. There is a couple very small rattles popping up, but I'm realistic that I got the car for under $30K, so I don't let it ruin anything for me. The simple fact is that AWD was a MUST for me, and this was by far the best 4-door car I could get with AWD for the money.

No problem, and I think that's the right way to go (I wish I had been more patient in retrospect). I would give the SLS a hard look, the leather interior is top quality and very comfortable/stylish and the heated seats are very nice in the winter.

A good value, so far (2,000 miles)
