I have noticed little things like the high-quality switches, the door pockets have smooth edges, all the storage compartments are lined with soft material (including the sunglasses holder), and most impressive to me is the A-pillar fabric lining. I test-drove a BMW 1 and 3 series with cheap looking plastic on the A-pillars.
The K hits all the little details that many others miss. My dad's new Legacy doesn't have most of these nice features.

.. actually on the sunglasses holder - can anyone actually fit their sunglasses in it?! Or is it maybe only models with a sunroof that have an unusably small compartment?
Attention to detail: try to find the trunk-lid wiring in the Kizashi: I'll bet you can't as it has been so nearly hidden inside the well-finished and carpeted trunk.
