That's a bummer. We could use the diversity in our market.

My thoughts exactly! Glad I don't have one needing dealer service and parts, warranty or not.

I kinda like those little SX4s. Couldn't quite get behind the Kizashi, but, hey, let's hop in the Kiz! Yeah.

At least the parts will still be out there to make up something like this -

Holy crap. Wife has an '03 XL-7 since new with 120k miles on it. Runs like a top. Too bad, they make good vehicles.

GM sold 195,000 cars last month

Toyota 171,000
VW 47,000 and Suzuki over 2,000 cars sold.

Their dealers don't keep much inventory and typically push shoppers into other brands that offer greater profits

Are Isuzu and Dhatsui still sold here?
