How come there isn't a Suzuki SX4 thread? - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

sperry · 2007-10-10, 11:20 AM

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.

Kevin M · 2007-10-10, 12:41 PM

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.

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

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.
