Hi Steve - I'm in Adelaide as well. I'm starting to see a few more on the road these days, but not enough to make them common and boring (wipes brow)
I've just done 12,000kms and still loving the car. She needs a good clean and a polish, but hasnt missed a beat. Engine is definitely getting stronger and fuel economy is definitely improving as well.

Hi Aussielass
We actually test drove a Mazda 3 MPS prior to purchasing the Kizashi as well. We took the Kizashi out first and then went to Mazda. My wife got in the car first and immediately didnt like it. She said she didnt feel safe and the interior quality felt inferior as well. Didnt take long to tell the sales man we were off back to Suzuki......needless to say he looked a bit surprised!
Just thought I'd check in! I am from Sydney and currently the proud owner of a red Kizashi XL, 6mt! Got tint, reverse sensors and some 18's with 235/45 rubber. Love everything about my Kizashi, except for the paint quality, which seems to be chipping very easily
For those of you in Sydney, we should organise a cruise one day!
A Kizashi XL (manual and white) owner here based in Sydney. I've had the car since December 2010 and have been quite pleased with it overall, with the exception that it's underpowered.
I am curious as to whether anyone has modified their Kizashi with performance enhancing products (i.e. RRM or any local products) in Sydney? Would also be interested to know if anyone else in Sydney has (or is thinking about) installing a turbo on the car?
I am the proud owner of a 2010 XL (upgraded from a 1999 Ford Laser sedan). Bought it back in April and have been lurking on here for a little while. I'm down in Wollongong and have only seen about 3 others, a black, a silver and a white Kizashi.
I had never even heard of this car when I was shopping around, I was looking at the Aurion Sportivo, took one for a test drive and it was a lemon, not to mention the sales staff were questionable. But did a little internet searching, found the Kizashi and was hooked! Took it for a test drive and didn't even need to take it that far, it is an awesome ride! From the simple thing I was driving, making it up Mount Ousley (for those of you playing at home) without the car revving it's guts out is a dream!
As I have the base model I'm looking at Bluetooth (getting annoyed with the ear piece) and fell in love with what Minority did!
