It's best to aim high, right? While most of the automotive world (ourselves included (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/10/16/2010-suzuki-kizashi-first-drive/)) are busy comparing the rather wonderful Suzuki (http://www.autoblog.com/model/kizashi)Kizashi (http://www.autoblog.com/model/kizashi) with logical competitors like the Volkswagen Jetta (http://www.autoblog.com/model/jetta) - not to mention larger cars like the Honda Accord (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/accord), Mazda6 (http://www.autoblog.com/model/mazda6) and Ford Fusion (http://www.autoblog.com/model/fusion) - it seems the Japanese automaker itself has its sights set a bit higher... all the way up to the Audi A4 (http://www.autoblog.com/model/a4) and Acura TSX (http://www.autoblog.com/model/tsx), point of fact.
Called the "Kizashi Test Drive Challenge" incentive program, Suzuki is offering sport sedan buyers $100 if they test drive the Kizashi first and still end up purchasing either a 2010 Audi A4 2.0T or four-cylinder 2010 Acura TSX within 10 days of the test drive. The program ends runs through January 31, 2010. Says Koichi Suzuki, executive vice president of American Suzuki Automotive Operations:
With styling, performance characteristics, luxury features and a new advanced All-Wheel-Drive system on par with the Audi A4 and Acura TSX, we're excited to extend this unique offer to consumers across the country, providing potential sport sedan buyers another reason to consider the all-new Kizashi-at a substantial savings. We're definitely putting Kizashi's premium without the premium moniker to the test.
Like we said, aim high. Read the full set of terms and conditions in the complete press release pasted after the jump.
