Welcome Tom! I think you'll love your Kizashi.

Your English is very good, I don't see any room for improvement. 8-)

Thnx guys. I was reading about the models or trims and the different options. In the Netherlands (and probably rest of europe) we only got the full option kizashi sport. So it's like a sls sport? You could go for awd at or 2wd mt. About 150 got a license plate here and most of the times about 20 of those were on sale. I bought myself 1 out of 9 . The MT is getting rare to buy...first it was like 60/40 AT/MT. Navi is the only option we didnt get but you can buy a sony or pioneer from the dealer.

I have a 6mt sport in black from october 2011

So in the meanwhile i was watching my fuel comsumption. I bought it set @ 8.9L/100km and every full tank i got it down bij 0.1 until i reached 8.4. Because of freezing weather i didnt reach 8.3. I hope to reach that number soon cause i am using my swift sport for some of the shorter distances now. :D

Last 2 full tanks i am on 8,2L/100km and i am satisfied with that. Going to enjoy the car and hope to keep the fuel consumption like this. Will switch from winter 17" to summer 18" soon.
