Interesting conversation with Southern Calif Suzuki dealer
I am on vacation in Orange county, CA, I am always on the look out for another Kizashi, no such luck. So, I call sales at Suzuki Depot, Santa Ana, CA. Hey, how come I haven't seen another Kizashi, either here or in NO CA where I bought my car? He says, Suzuki wants to stay nimble, flexible in this economy. Does not want the cars to overshadow the bikes. Does not want to be commited to selling a lot of cars and having a correspondingly large advertising budget. He tells me they sell cars all the time and the people who buy them, love em. I asked him about a possible turbo or larger displacement motor for the 2013's, he hasn't heard anything. I thanked him for his time. PS, at a truck stop, the guy next to me says that is a really n ice looking car, I had only seen one in the magazines, I thanked him.

I just moved to the bay area from Dallas a few months ago. There isn't a single dealership here. They have all closed.
I love the car, but it has zero resale value now... also afraid if something does go wrong, how the hell am I going to get it fixed.

Knock on wood, I've been seeing a lot of Kizashis here in NJ lately; in fact the other day pulled up behind a grey Kizashi like mine. So two in a row, what do you know.
2010 Kizashi SLS FWD Gray; 2013 Grand Vitara 4wd red; 2012 SX4 blue; 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV black

I have only seen 2 other Kizashis in my area. I do get compliments all the time but dang, I would love to see some more on the road.
