Hello!
Pending finance I may be the owner of a 2010 Kizashi XLS!
From all the way in Perth Western Australia.
May be a little too excited to sleep

-- About time I upgraded from the trusty 2002 Toyota Echo

That's a big upgrade.
You'll enjoy it and have made a very good choice- they're a very under rated vehicle in Australia.

Hello and welcome! Good to see another potential Perth Kizashi owner on here. Great cars, unique, enjoyable and undeservedly underrated.

It is a big upgrade but I'm happy I finally have a car I want rather than a "it'll do" car. Moving out of the parents last year to a place with decent public transport, it won't need to leave the driveway except for weekends, rather than ~35km round trip commute, and that was only to the train station!
Bit of messing about with the finance, but all approved now.
First time buying through a dealer, so I'm not sure how long this all takes, but they have asked for my rego papers for the Echo, and I am still to contact my insurance to arrange the certificate of currency.
The dealership have been absolutely wonderful though, cannot thank Wild West Hyundai in Wangara enough.

Good choice! I moved up from a Yaris (like your echo) to the Kizashi. Finally feel like I am driving a real car not a shopping trolley. Yaris was great zipping around town, but the Kizashi feels so much better on the highway etc.

Congratulations hope you enjoy your Kizashi. I've had mine since last September and love it more everytime I drive it. Make sure you push it hard thats how you find out how good it is.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you. I just bought a Kizashi to semi-replace my previous car, and it was also my first time buying from a dealership.
Congrats, and welcome to the club!
