I didn't download the whole thing(got dial up)(S.L.O.W. dialup) ;D.  But what I saw it looks just like the Equanox and Vue together.  Do they even offer this thing with a 5 speed?

     Its sad, everyone here sounds just like the guys on a Kia Sportage BBS I visit from time to time, the real frame Sportage is gone replaced by a unibody thing that's from the Hyundai Elantra :(

Is there any information as to when the new vitara will be available for purchase in the US? I didn't spend alot of time looking buti haven't seen much in the way of information on availability.

I have been checking out jimny's here in Singapore as I have been stuck here for the last 3 weeks working on a project for work. The Jimny is small. I was thinking it was sidekick sized but really it's samurai sized.  they are pretty cool though. I am going to head to the only dealership in Singapore this weekend to see one up close.  Suzuki has some cool cars out that you can't get in the US. The IGNIS is pretty cool up close and I guess hauls ass and handles like a sports car..

Sorry but the same ol' 2.7v-6 w/185 hP doesn't impress me much ::)
They need to bump displacement to around 3.5 or better and around 220h.p and
still keep the MPG figures where there at. If other manufacturers(Kia,Hyundai) can do it cheaply so can they.

so is it true that the aerio sx may be no longer made? Seen this article saying it it may and another sport wagon type by 2007?

I promised to eric i wouldn't talk about American Suzuki...but that was in a negative light.   so i'll just simply say when i worked for them last year i found they have a corporate association with Subaru through GM.  And "they" really liked what corporate relative Saab did with the AWD turbo WRX wagon...that's it. that's all.

It's coming (one of the V6 GM Global engines) but it will be in a bigger replacement for the XL-7.
