Disappointingly bland. I really wish they’d turn the first Kizashi concept into a reality.

I personally think its a good looker. And that paint-job for a “disguise”? Looks like it came from a riced up buzzsaw =p

I don’t reckon it looks anything like the concept car. The concept is very appealing. The pics of that disguised car look very boring. Like, Camry boring.

Its got a bit of Insignia in it. Really dull compared to the concept. 4wd platform smells nice though.

Some people really should learn to read the whole article first.

Indeed they should Oz including you. The following is an extract from the article I rest my case.

Apart from the 3.6-litre, there should also be a 150+ horsepower 2.3-litre 4-cylinder engine on offer as well (not yet confirmed for AU).

The production car is never going to have 21″ wheels.

Torque figure would be nice to know, as would the all-up weight of the vehicle.

220kw on its own means very little, since it could be developed at 7000rpm, and there might be no torque below about 4000rpm like the Honda.

Didn’t Australia reject the Magna/380, which was a 3.6/3.8l V6 car which also had AWD for a while.

Maybe this will go the same way.

A 2.3 turbo 4 might be a better option in today’s world.

thats pretty good power, holden only manage 175kw from a 3.6 v6.

Spitfire – CTRL + F then enter “kw” and hit enter

The Kizashi is smaller than the Kizashi3 it might be the Suzuki swift sedan.
