Have a look for yourselves. The lower center console is different on Nav and Non-Nav model. Push button is on the center console of the Navigation model, traditional key is found on the lower side of the steering column. Not crazy about the "blonde" wood trim. |

According to the June issue of Car & Driver, page 31, the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi 3 will go on sale in Japan in late 2009 and reach U.S. dealerships in early 2010. Arguable the Kizashi 3 will be the sexiest sport sedan on the road in 2010. http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/20/new-york-2008-suzuki-unveils-kizashi-3-concep- - t-coming-in-2010/ The Kizashi 3 is a tad smaller than a Mazda6 but slightly larger than a BMW 3 Series sedan and will be powered by a (front or all-wheel drive) 2.5 inline-four or a 260 hp 3.6-liter DOHC V6 engine derived from GM’s high-feature V-6, the same engine found in the Cadillac CTS and Malibu. Base prices will start in the $21,000-to-$28,000 price range. The Kizashi 3 will sit on 110.2-inch wheelbase identical to the Honda Accord. The new sedan will spawn a wagon version and a crossover to replace the current XL7.

Replying to: kdshapiro (May 04, 2008 5:35 am) The previous Suzuki mid-sizer, the Verona, wasn't competitive. This new design looks on paper to be fully competitive. So I think that is a good thing--yet another option for mid-sized sedan buyers, and a Japanese-made car at that. In fact, when it arrives it could be the only mid-sized family sedan sold in the U.S. sourced entirely from Japan. |

Replying to: lilengineerboy (May 04, 2008 1:41 pm) I'm still reserving my final judgment until I drive it. I do like what I see so far. If I had never seen the JDM Mazda6, I would like this one even better. |

Replying to: aviboy97 (May 05, 2008 8:34 am) From what I have seen so far, the 2009 Mazda 6 would absolutely be at the top of my list among mid-size sedans. I have had several of the current generation Mazda 6s as rentals and like them OK - except for the noisy 4 cyl engine - but I would never have considering buying one. The 2009 with the 3.7 engine will be a definite possibility, though. |
