Entry level Camry is about 1.45M, for the 2.4G model and similar entry level Accord is 1.7M for the 2.4S one. And it's got All Wheel drive too :D

FWD model lang ata sa pinas. Mukha wala din manual tranny model

The Kizashi is most similar to the Mazda6. Roomy enough, but not quite as... enormous... as the Accord or the Camry. In fact, the Kizashi weighs about as much as a Mazda6, around 1,485 kilograms.

1.288 is a fair price for the size and power.

Just drove it... actually, was the third or fourth person to drive the demo unit. Pretty good car. As you'd expect of a Suzuki, the handling is very good, and the ride is supple and well controlled. The steering is pretty good, too. Not quite as feelsome as a Mazda6, but better than most anything else in this class.

any hp and torque figures of the 2.4 engine? 5spd a/t? suzuki's are fun to drive cars and makes nice interiors, too. opposite when you're inside their showroom. madilim at parang circa-90's.

nice figures! my last suzuki was a 1.6 4A/T vitara 4x4. Sold it when i graduated from college 'cos that time hirap mag hanap and umorder ng parts. Took my radiator two weeks to arrive and power window mechanism parang 1 week sa prince motors. interior pics naman sa mga nakapag test drive na

this is basically the same engine as the one on the current grand vitara. but while that iteration only produces about 160hp, this one makes 20hp more due to improved intake and vvt
