How come there isn't a Suzuki SX4 thread?
 

Suzuki's been making great bikes for years, and they're finally putting out some nice, affordable cars. I would have thought the SX4 would have been talked about around here by now... it's cool looking (along the lines of the fit and yaris), AWD, and there's a damn WRC version!

I wanted my wife to buy one, but she wanted the Mazda 3 instead.

I think it's a cool car. Especially in WRC trim!

The WRC version is hot, but otherwise I say meh...

Oh joy, another hatchback. :(

If I were willing and able to buy a new car as a daily driver, that might even edge out an Outback Sport for me.

Only the "crossover" model is a hatch. The "sport" model is a sedan.

But the sedan is boring. The hatch is hot. Just 'cause you have no taste for modern car design doesn't mean the SX4 is crap. :P

The rumor mill is also rumbling with news that Suzuki is going to put together a street going version of their WRC competitor. Or, more accurately, a WRX competitor, and chief designer will be none-other than Mr. Hillclimb Himself, Monster Tajima.

Here is to hoping the road going SX4 will look like the Grand Vitara/Escudo/XL7 Pikes Peak Edition Specials :p

That third one down is pretty nifty. I wonder how hard they are to work on?

I think I just saw one of these driving out of the parking lot at my work, didn't look too bad.

I sat in one at a car show and it was surprisingly nice. It would make a sweet daily driver.
