True enough. The good news is, there are no more Daewoo-made Suzukis anymore. The only "rebadge" is the Equator, which is a rebadged Nissan Frontier. However, it's cheaper and has a better warranty than the Nissan!

I may have drank th Suzuki Kool-Aid, but I really believe they make good products, but need a shot of consumer trust.

Heck, the Kizashi nabbed the top spot (again) for owner satisfaction, for what it's worth.

I do have the say that the Kizashi is one hot piece of construction. There's a company that makes performance parts for the Kizashi and for the Sx4, I believe the company is "Race Ready"? I could be wrong though. Anyways, they built up a Red colored Kizashi to show off what they can do for the cars and one day I was at the local Toyota dealership (It's multi-dealership lot...Lafontaine Toyota, Suzuki, Honda and Hyundai)...wouldn't you know, that red Kizashi is sitting in the parking spot that I pulled in next to. The thing was unreal looking. Lowered with black tinted windows, rims that sat flush with the wheel wheels all the way around with fat meats on them. it was GOOD
