Mazda 6 or Suzuki Kizashi

[170kphlang]

though the 6 is about 400k more expensive but is just a little bit underpowered compared to the Kizashi even though it is 100cc more, ano mas pipiliin niyo? looks alone mas maganda itsura ng 6 but that 400k difference is a killer for it.

Between the two, Mazda 6 pa rin. Not only does the 6 look better, I also doubt that the Kizashi will drive better than the 6.

If 400k is too much, consider a Sonata GLS and then just change the rims. That'll be less than 100k over the Kizashi.

6 gets my vote... pero kung gusto mo talaga mura.. sonata na lang ;)

[pop3corn]

Suzuki kizashi for me.

[germs]

Wait na lang for the new (Kodo) 6. Mga 2-3 years haha. :D

Seeing that the CX-5 didn't stray too far away from the concept, I'm guessing the new 6 would look really really close to its concept vehicle.

For now, if you want to really stand out, get the Kizashi. It was developed on the Nurburgring. If you're looking for a driver's car, get it.

Hmm, i have to go with 6.

[jaymd]

kizashi siguro. ang laki kasi ng price difference. and the smaller size is an advantage IMHO. pero pogi talaga mazda 6. the kizashi reminds of a passat japanese version

[dct]

why not consider camry sir? mas sigurado ka dito. hindi kaisng mahal ng 6. tama po si sir jut703 consider sonata than kizashi.

The 6 isn't underpowered. In fact, it feels like it has a better kick of low-rpm torque than the Kizashi, since it has a traditional AT instead of a CVT.

The 6 drives sharper, has more features, has more space, has leather, and has a better sounding BOSE stereo system... but it costs nearly an entire Alto more than the Kizashi. Pretty hard to compare these two... the Kizashi offers a moderately sporty experience (not as sharp as the Mazda6, but better than most) for a whole lot less money than most other mid-sizers.

sir niky, would you consider Kizashi as 'bang for the buck'?

[basti08]

Local spec, I'd go for the Mazda 6.

Top end Kizashi elsewhere looks so good, has about every feature except a kitchen sink and has good performance too.

[germs]

yeah that's the sport version ata. AWD with paddles, 18inch wheels, rockford audio, leather all around.

[timrev]

ang nagustuhan ko sa suzuki kizashi 6 speed MT...at yun AWD system
un mazda6 kasi wala ata MT version dito pinas

[germs]

Actually sir yung Kizashi 6-CVT lang din meron dito sa atin tsaka FWD lang. May manual mode lang pero walang paddles. Paddles ata exclusive doon sa Kizashi Sport na AWD.

[jut703]

For me, a midsize sedan in the Philippines needs to exude some sort of luxury or image. I don't find either in the Kizashi. It just looks like a compact sedan that was made a bit larger. Even if it's a rare model, I can see it easily getting lost in a sea of cars along rush-hour EDSA.

The Mazda 6, Sonata, Camry, Teana, Optima and Accord are all more distinctive and respectable cars IMO.

[170kphlang]

thanks for the insights, actually i'm leaning towards the kizashi but still completely undecided.

[jondonpoy]

i'll go for suzuki kizashi....

[renzo_d10]

Pards, Mazda 6 nalang. Looks better, drives better and has more appeal. Tama si jut, it looks like a sedan na pinalaki. When I saw it up close, ako parang... Eto na yun?

Whereas when I saw the Mazda 6 inside out.. Gusto ko na siya i-uwi. :bwahaha:

And believe me, pag may nagtanong sayo ng what's your car... Mas gusto mo isagot na Mazda 6 diba kaysa "Kizashi.."

:hysterical:

[tidus1203]

You are already choosing between two unorthodoxed cars.

So just get the Mazda 6. I like the Kizashi's price though...
