That was an excellent review and pretty well summed up my impression perfectly, right down to his opinion on the flaring of the fenders.

Great piece.
Suzuki, if they are not going big budget on advertising, ought to simply strategically place Kizashis out on the roads where it can be seen in person. People are attracted to the look, and want to know more about the car. I have never experienced this this kind of attention before. Closest for me was my 2002 Passat. That model took a couple of years to catch on, but the dealerships in those days had dozens in inventory.

Suzuki needs dealerships. They only have one here in Ottawa, serving a combined population of about 900,000. It's no wonder I have never seen a Kizashi on the roads.

Probably a spammer, but I will wait until they post a useless link. I don't think they even sell the Kizashi in Mauritius.
