WOW! Suzuki SNAPPED! 2010 Kizashi 3 Concept!

[exitspeed]

Shit is GANGSTER! Damn I wish there was Nissan Maxima badging on that car. +1 to Suzuki.

From Autoblog:

Suzuki has been teasing us over the last few months with its duo of highly stylized concepts, the Kizashi and Kizashi 2. While it was obvious that cues found on both those concepts are going to inspire the styling of future models, it wasn't clear how Suzuki would implement some of the more extreme features of this design language. Today in New York, Suzuki showed what elements were making the cut with the unveiling of the Kizashi 3 concept.

Sporting a toned-down version of the gaping maw found on the first two concepts, deeply drawn headlights and recessed fog lamps, the fascia has made the successful transition from design exercise to down-to-earth concept. While the profile and rear end is a little less dramatic than the view up front, the 21-inch wheels add a healthy amount of visual weight down below. Underneath the hood is a 300-hp, 3.6-liter V6 that drives all four wheels through Suzuki's intelligent AWD system.

Suzuki made it very clear that the Kizashi 3 is a close representation of the production model that will arrive in the U.S. by 2010. It's a serious step to shore up market share in a segment rife with competition, but if the Kizashi is executed as well as the concept, there could be another serious contender coming out of Japan.

[WilloW]

I see some Audi, Infiniti, and Lexus in that car. Very nice!

[sleepy_s13]

Im not gonna lie, it has nice lines.

[DUFFM4N]

love it....hope the final production model doesnt change at all from the concept

[DOOK]

I'll stick with AWD and leave subaru...

[exitspeed]

I see some Audi, Infiniti, and Lexus in that car. Very nice!

How about the S15 headlights. hubba hubba.

I love the hood line in the front.

Now if they could build a smaller coupe with this type of styling :eek2: :hyper:

[OptionZero]

Audi grill, Lexus fender and headlights

[blitzkrgCT9A]

:hyper: :rawk: That looks so awesome!!

[ryguy]

I think it looks dumb as hell, I think the front fascia looks dopey.

[SimpleS14]

I like the looks of this concept and I can't believe its from Suzuki. I wonder how much they will tone down for the production model.

[ryguy]

I wonder how much they will tone down for the production model.

Probably like 80%, I cannot see them putting it into production with wheels anywhere close to resembling those.

[murda-c]

I never thought suzuki would suprise me, damn.

Though i do love their hillclimb and wrc cars.

[exitspeed]

+ a bunch of rep for anyone who photoshopes it into a coupe with nice wheels.

All right, GO!...

[Antihero983]

holy suzuki sex!

[upSLIDEdown]

+ a bunch of rep for anyone who photoshopes it into a coupe with nice wheels.

All right, GO!...

How about MS Paint? ;-)

[Phlip]

Audi grill, Lexus fender and headlights, all for Suzuki price

There, added that important detail on for you

[ryguy]

Didnt shorten the wheelbase, but I like it as a coupe better than a sedan.

[SimpleS14]

+ rep for you

That looks pretty good.

[exitspeed]

Oh man ryguy, that is fresh! So sick.

Come one Suzuki. DO IT.

[lflkajfj12123]

wait...

am i supposed to be impressed?

[MikeisNissan]

that rear taillights almost looks like the new maximas headlights!

[Phlip]

that rear taillights almost looks like the new maximas headlights!

I don't see it that way, but if anyone does, then they can take solace in knowing that it looks a billion times better as a tail than it does a headlight.

[ryguy]

wait...

am i supposed to be impressed?

Yes.

I took it upon myself to fix the design error in the wheels too.

[exitspeed]

No one says you have to have good taste to post on Zilvia. :wiggle:

[Daniel.]

haha :ghey:

BURN

[muddafakka]

That's a pretty good looking car. I was impressed when I first saw the Kizashi wagon and wondered what it would look like as a sedan. Yeah I see resemblances from other cars but it overall it's nice.

Anything looks better than that weirdly proportioned Aerio.

[Daniel.]

I know i know, the last one looks ridiculous so i redid two more.

[alindeman1989]

Dam that thing look amazing.

[exitspeed]

Now that I keep seeing it as a coupe I'm really upset it's not...

The sedan is still hot though.

My wife said, 'would you really buy a Suzuki though?'...I said, 'if it looks like that, YEA!'.

[reaxion]

Id rock that thing hard....pretty impressive.

[Kn1ves]

whoa whoa whoa, i can still be JDM tight with this.

* > genesis then

[markyboi]

2010? good! ill have money by then..lol

[SimpleSexy180]

i love those headlights. make it look mean.

[240love^_^]

Damn that thing looks so sexy.:yum:

[lflkajfj12123]

My wife said, 'would you really buy a Suzuki though?'

i'm with her on that one

[Gnnr]

My wife said, 'would you really buy a Suzuki though?'...I said, 'if it looks like that, YEA!'.

Fuck yeah, its still from Japan (Japan > Korea). Only reason Suzuki hasn't made it as big as its rivals on the same island is the choice of models. I mean, just look at their bikes.

BTW, someone photoshop some VIP style wheels, this can totally go that route.

[BOROSUN]

hot like fiya!

[ESmorz]

If a Bugatti Veyron and a cheap Audi hooker had sex.

This is what would come of it.

Not bad for a crack baby :2f2f:

[drift freaq]

Wow, fairly fucking impressive. They will sell a lot of those.

[lflkajfj12123]

too bad the final production model won't be anywhere near how that looks

[ESmorz]

too bad the final production model won't be anywhere near how that looks

Yeah. If they just toned down the wheels and kept EVERYTHING the way it is, except maybe offer a sports coupe model.

It would be... stupendous.

That's right I said it.

[WilloW]

too bad the final production model won't be anywhere near how that looks
I'll be damned if they crank out some rolling toaster instead.
