Pros: What do you like about 2008 Suzuki SX4?
Regarding the Sport (sedan model):
Incredibly agile handling.
Excellent KYB suspension dynamics.
Very comfortable buckets.
Timing chain-no belt.
Great brakes-and-bags package standard.
ESP available.
Front quarter window/huge mirrors give great visibility.
Very handsome car.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Suzuki SX4?
5-speed automatic.
Some sort of folding rear seat.
16" wheel option for sedan.
Some light colored upholstery would be welcome, black or black is just too dark.

2008 Suzuki SX4 Review:
Cross-shopped the SX4 Pport sedan vs. Hyundai Elantra. The Suzuki comes across as very quick on its feet, while the Elantra drives more conventionally. The 17" 50 profile tires may have something to do with that, but the Suzuki has a well-snubbed feel to its KYB suspension work that puts it well ahead of the H in the handles-like-a-slot-car department. The 4-wheel disc brakes have a good feel, the engine needs one more gear to make it work better but power seems adequate. The cabin is comfy and controls are natural and easy to reach. One great feature is the A pillar work. There is a peekaboo front quarter window which gives great visibility, welcome relief from the A-pillar blindness so common. The outside mirrors are huge. These two features help give the cockpit a great view out that I haven't seen (NPI) in any other car. These features trump the Hyundai's convenient folding seats and slightly torquier engine. Now, if they just sold these at GM dealers...

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Suzuki SX4?
I love everything about the outside. I love the steering wheel controls, the gas mileage, the radio control that turns down when I slow down or stop, the fun windows on the front sides, the head room, the easy handling, the temperature gauge and all the mileage features, and the over all look.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Suzuki SX4?
Way more room in the back seat. The black seats with those little, tiny holes are the biggest pain in the butt to clean. Those tiny holes are the worst. More horse power, And like so many others have said, a middle arm rest for sure. And why have keyless entry without a trunk opener too? I hate that. Lastly, The gear shifter needs to be painted with a stronger more lasting silver paint. I have only had my car for 8 months and it is already fading away.

2008 Suzuki SX4 Review:
The bottom line is that I love my car !! It just needs a little more fabulousness added to it.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Suzuki SX4?
I have not tried it in the mountains yet, but in heavy city traffic or interstate, I find no faults. It is not overpowered, but ample power is there if you need it. It zips in and out of traffic with ease.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Suzuki SX4?
I miss the arm rest between the front seats.

2008 Suzuki SX4 Review:
Mine is new and I am still on the honeymoon with it. So far, I am very pleased. I also like free gas when everyone else is paying $4 /gallon.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Suzuki SX4?
Styling and drivability. Very fun to drive

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Suzuki SX4?
Needs arm rest, more power. Transmission seems to shift prematurely at highway speeds which causes the car to surge.

2008 Suzuki SX4 Review:
The SX4 has great styling as well as handling. Very fun to drive around town but at times, especially at highway speeds, the transmission feels as though it is changing in and out of final drive prematurely.This causes the car to surge. I also think Suzuki needs to get on board with all other car manufactures and up the oil change intrevals from every 3000 to 5000 or even 7500. By the way, I'm not a big fan of the daytime driving lights.
