2012 Kizashi

Will there be a 2012 Kizashi? If so, there better be a turbo model. Otherwise, it's going to be a waste of time. I haven't heard anything about a 2012.

I think there will be a 2012 Kizashi, but I find it unlikely that there will be a turbo version. Suzuki isn't great at taking their concept cars into production very fast.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

They tested the turbo. It scored really good with the test drivers. Hopefully they make it.

As I appreciate it, there will be a 2012, I thnk they are consolidating models somewhat so SE's will offer leather packages etc, the GTS will be manual only, and a turbo kit is supposed to be coming out in a retro-fit version at some point within the next year.

I would hope that Suzuki would make leather interior available in the SE, since the GTS and SLS both have sunroofs, and cut headroom too much for me. I'd also like to see them upgrade the radio systems to make Bluetooth standard, and use a real color LCD screen that could display more information. iPod info and RDS info are severely truncated, and makes it infuriating to try to read song titles and station information with the current screen.

Good point. I want a turbo and better LCD screen in 2012.
