Of course, that won't be true of every individual car. I'm a short time owner, so I cannot give you my personal experience.

    I guess what is affordable and attainable is completely relative. The SX4 can be had for under $15,000. I think the Impreza comparison makes the two cars closer to $4,000 apart in price, which means the Impreza costs 25 percent more than an SX4. That is hardly a fair comparison. For someone on a budget, the near $4,000 price difference could mean a monthly payment of more than $100. For a ... Read More

    '07 Impreza wagon can be had for well under $18k and gets nearly the same gas mileage as the Suzuki. Impreza has full-time AWD, 173 hp, and is one of the safest, most reliable cars out there (plus great resale). The Suzuki's a hard sell in comparison, at least to me. Not sure if the SX4 has any advantage beyond the $3k price difference.

    2007 Suzuki SX4. It is "another small patch of white space going dark" according to the C&D article. The article is right...the SX4 is different and one way it's different is the fact that one can put the small car into a separate 2WD(FWD)drive mode to optimize fuel economy. To have the choice to do this is good when not wanting the better traction provided by AWD-Auto or the 4WD traction ... Read More

    a great deal. What other car on the market for $14,999 allows you to toggle a switch and drive in FWD(2WD), then with another flip of a toggle switch go into AWD-Auto for 4 season driving? Want to drive through some snow or ice? Well, you should have told me! Just toggle the switch to AWD-Lock and lock your powertrain/axles together so they turn in unison(4WD). This is the breakthrough rig ... Read More

    I'll have to wait a few weeks before I'll get my 5-spd. SX4 with the convenience package (i.e. with cruise control). My dealership in the SF bay area told me they found out from their district rep that they will not receive any 5-spd base models until the full roll-out in 2007. Suzuki is shipping just a couple "preview" 5-spds with the convenience package to this dealership in October.

I see that as a big 'ole confidence booster to those of us who are thinking about getting one of these cars.

    Suzuki's Burnt Orange after seeing it so much in their 2007 SX4 advertising. I also like the Red(they're not that far off from each other, at least on the net)and the Metallic blue looks very sharp on this car. I'm still pretty interested in this little pup. Suzuki's got a hit on their hands here. At least with me!

    hey, keep in touch here on Edmunds. You and I may both be buying the new 2007 Suzuki SX4 within a week from now. So far on paper the car looks great. Remember, Suzuki is not a brand new babe in the woods when it comes to making 4 wheel drives. With me, power is not a necessary thing. What are we so afraid of when merging onto the freeway, anyway? ... Read More

With the SX4 I think Suzuki engineers designed it for good weight balance in handling (and good wind dynamics)and also it has to have the equipment installed to be able to(electronic coupler located just in front of ...

BTW-that Suzuki SX-4 sedan looks like a cross between the 2007 Hyundai Elantra and the 2007 VW Jetta. Look again at the picture and give me your thoughts on that.

    I started out Aug 2006 looking in the $20,000 range, but after driving the 2006 Toyota Yaris and Matrix, I realized that I didn't have to pay that much to get a good car. The Matrix seemed jerky and tight, compared to the yaris' smooth ride. I dropped my ideal price to $15,000 and test drove the 2006 Hyundai Elantra Hatchback (good car, lots of room, but it was a little ... Read More

    I sure hope the Impreza looks better then the current one! Subaru got the 05 Legacy right but the snout noise Tribeca is UGLY. Here's to the hope that Subaru goes for a clean look. It will be an interesting comparison, especially considering price.

    Hrm. I had high hope for the SX-4, and it still looks like a good car, but I think I'd hold out for the '08 Impreza. I was hoping the 2.0l engine and light weight (200-300lbs lighter than the Impreza) would help fuel economy significantly, but 24/29 (manual) and 24/30 (auto) are dangerously close to the current Impreza 2.5i's 22/29 and 23/30.

    One thing I noticed while looking closely at the interior pic is what seems to be the availability of automatic climate control. That's a very rare luxury for such a small vehicle, at least in the North American market. There was no mention of a sunroof being offered. I hope Suzuki at least makes it an option. Overall, not a bad little package. Pricing will range from $15K to $18K. A ... Read More
