Kizashi!

[WookieOnRitalin]

Here she is. I love it. Great ride. 18's make the ride a tad stiffer. CVT works great once you're used to it. Rocksford Audio is great. The only complain I really have is that my iPod Touch will not read on the car which sucks (iphone and ipod Classic do however).

Enjoy.

[Payman]

Congrats! Great colour, and the magazines generally speak highly of the Kizashi.

[CALL_911]

That's a great looking car. Nice choice, and best of luck with it. I've always liked the Kizashi.

[WookieOnRitalin]

So apparently, you can bluetooth connect any audio devices to the Kizashi sound system and my iPod Touch has bluetooth. So in less than 5 minutes, I had my music playing through my stereo without wires. That is disgustingly cool.

[Submariner]

I don't know much about it, but it's a good looking car for sure.  Congrats.

Get it at Ganley!



Nice ride!

Hairdryer and dental floss.  Get rid of that nasty dealer badge.

I took it off when I took the last pic. I'm glad TN does not require plates front and back.

sweet! i checked one out at a dealership just recently while the rest of the family was at the mall next door. i was amazed at the roomy interior, crisp lines, great looks all 'round, super high quality and bang for the buck. i, too, love the color. it looks very upscale, especially in that handsome gray.

You mean not required in the front, right?  

I can't wait to move from Texas to Arkansas for the same reason.   Going on 5 years and I never stuck the front plate on the Mazda6.  Just need to get away with it for another 3 months and a handful of days.

NIce looking car, BTW.

Those things are pretty good-lookin'.

I live in NYS, which requires a front plate. My car was bought in PA, which apparently doesnt. So I'm running without a front plate. I'm going on 9 months without a problem.

Congrats. 

Did you get it in AWD?

Nah, not the front plate mount, the badge on the back.  My car had a sticker and I told them to remove it or I wouldn't take delivery.  I let them put on a license plate holder instead.

Yeah, that Ganley badge looks retarrrrrrded.

Kill it with fire!

Agreed. How can I get it off?

No need for AWD here in TN. It just makes it slower. The dealership oddly enough had an AWD GTS as well, but I think the extra weight just does not do any favors for the car. Plus, the car grips and rips just fine without it that is, if you can rip with only 4 cylinders. It was nice not to have to pay for Premium fuel in the Kizashi.

I've always been ablt to get them off by working a flat blade screwdriver under one edge ( hodt the screwdriver with some force away from the paint) and gently prying the thing off of the car.  it helps to wait for a hot day or crefully heat the emblem with a harir dryer.  Use decal and adhesive remnover to take off any adhesive that remains.

Some people use a length of dental floss or fishing line to cut through the foam adhesive strip that holds the emblem on.  I've never had to do that, but I've seen it done and it works too.  Take a length of the floss and wrap each end around  a short wood dowel.  Place the floss between the emblem and the car body and pull the floss to the other side of the emblem and slightly away from the car body.  Then remove the adhesive.

Credit card, dental floss, or pry it off with something else (without touching the paint, that is).  Goo Gone or some residue removal substance will help you get the remaining adhesive off.  Heat helps soften it if it's chilly outside.

I used hot water and floss when I debadged my car, along with this turtle wax residue remover stuff I got from a wal-mart. Worked like a charm.

[93JC]

If you don't have some sort of "residue remover" use WD-40. Seriously.

Yeah but don't let it drip on Suzuki.

[Onslaught]

Nice. I like the color.

Ah, got it.

I once wrote a kid three citations (after a warning) over six weeks because he was too lazy to put a front plate on. $50, $75, $150.  His Mom came in and complained I was harassing her son.

Oh, cool car!

I won't do it, because I won't drill holes in my front bumper.
