Yep, same here. It sill amazes me that as a 2010-2013 design, it still looks like it fits in with the 2016 models that are almost half a decade older than it. Now that's good design.
Long dry spell without spotting any Kizashi's ended last Friday. Spotted a really nice ice-blueish looking exterior paint job Kizashi as I was headed towards the West Bank.
It's been at least a couple of months since I saw my last Kizashi in the wild. But I saw a dark blue one yesterday on I-64 in Chesapeake. The dark blue is a really nice color on our cars. There was a woman driving and my wife smiled and waved as we passed her. She smiled back but I really don't know if she noticed that we had the same car or was just returning the greeting. I find most women (yes, I'm generalizing here) are not really cognizant about the other cars around them and are not car enthusiasts. There's not a single female who posts in this forum on a regular basis. The exception I've seen are women who drive Jeeps. Not the Cherokees and four-doors, but the CJs.
Finally spotted #4 in the Chicago area. Was a nice dark blue with a sand beige interior. Looked gorgeous so I had to park next to it. The lady in it gave me a nod and her kids were confused as to why.
I did see another Kizashi a few weeks ago here in California. It was the first one since the red one I saw on my trip. The driver was a woman who also seemed to recognize my car as a Kizashi. She looked to do a double-take as mine was fitted with the cross bars, roof box, bike rack, LED DRLs, and was covered in bugs with a Maryland plate.
Saw the 3rd Kizashi in our area (there's only 3 that I know of)--the red one after a long hiatus. She didn't notice us as she was turning. Looks great in red!
