  • One of the best small car - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
    By -

    I bought this car as a commuter car and very happy with it. I compared this car with Hyundai Elantra, Kia Spectra, Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic and for a couple thousand dollars less I got a car that come with standard accessories (i.e. pwr lock, eight speakers, etc.) but not standard on others.

    After looking at the Corolla, Civic, and 3 sedan I decided to choose the Forenza because it had a better interior than the Corolla and Civic but was cheaper than the 3. While 120+HP doesnt seem a lot, its plenty for a compact car this size and I have no problem accelerating to 75 on the highway. I absolutely love the interior design which looks fabulous and from a car twice this price! So far have had no problems and I am really impressed with GM Suzuki!

    I was so excited when i first bought this car. it was my first brand new car and i was excited that i got such a great price...unfortunately all that changed 2 years into owning it. the check engine light had been an on going problem since the beginning. multiple small problems arose in between then and now. the pickup in the car when accelerating is very slow. as for the last 2months. i have had the car in the shop more than ive had it at home. it has not been able to pass inspection for the THIRD time. lets see its had, a head gasket replaced, antifreeze leak fixed, serpentine belt replace 2x, new thermostat 2x, new pcm ,still not fixed now. buyer beware!

    My first impression: I didnt like it. Then I saw it in person and drove it. Second impression: I bought it 2 days later. Its an incredible little car. It looks so much nicer than the others in this segment, at least in my opinion. Coming out of a Pontiac Sunfire Convertible, Im amazed at this cars excellent feel.

    before purchasing my suzuki forenza s, i drove a 1993 ford probe. so getting the suzuki was a step up. my 50+ conservative, typical know it all, car loving dad loves my suzuki. its a wonderful car. i commute back and forth to school 30 miles each way and it makes the trip much more enjoyable and bearable. i can drive in the rain with ease because of some special feature on the car. i havent tested in the snow yet, but im sure ill do fine.

  • Style Without the High Price - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
    By -

    My 2004 Suzuki Forenza in fantasy black looks great, even when it is dirty. It handles well and accelerates with ease. It has lots of room and the seat front tilts down to take the preasure off the upper legs. This is a new design for 2004, so look forward to the introduction of aftermarket parts to upgrade my car. It does need mud flaps. Its only down side is the road noise, but this may be cured with a tire upgrade.

  • Just Fun and it is About Time! - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
    By -

    This car is like a fun little James Bond car! It is always easy to drive and fun to get around in. Everything about this car is ergonomically correct. The design under the hood and inside the car are too cool!

  • Cant get more for your dollar - 2004 Suzuki Forenza
    By -

    From the styling to interior comfort, its been a real joy to own. It would be hard to find more for the price paid, and Im very happy driving it!
