We had a spectacular sunset last night so I rushed to the beach to take some pictures of the Suzuki SX4.
The Suzuki SX4 is a pretty car anyway and it looks great against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
If in some alternate future I was to purchase a Suzuki SX4, this would be my wish list:
- just a little more power (I know it's an economy car, I don't need to be blown away)
- quicker downshifts (so I can kick it when I need to)
- a moonroof (so I can enjoy the night sky)
- a kicking audio system (so I can disturb the neighborhood)
- some sun protection on all that glass (so my legs don't fry like they did on the way to work this morning)
More pictures after the jump...

Good photos. Nothing beats an ocean sunset.
Isn't Suzuki coming out with an SX offshoot that will remedy most of those issues?

hahahahaha. Donna, you know you're far too committed to your job when the first thing you think to do upon seeing a beautiful sunset is take pictures of a Suzuki SX4 in front of it.

SRSLY. I don't understand how the 135i is ugly and the SX4 is pretty. I just don't get it at all. :)

Sounds like you want a new SX4 Sport with a tint job and an aftermarket subwoofer.

A manual gearbox will solve your 1st 2 wishes.
I'd like to see a moon roof too as well as a good stereo.
It is a nice looking car, better then the Fit.

Great photos! Wouldn't be surprised if Suzuki gets in touch to see if they can use it for their brochure covers...

You could have these guys reflash your ecu to get more power and quicker downshifts. Or add a turbo. Or install headers.

I know they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I just don't see any beauty in the SX-4, at all. I think it's ugly and dorky looking.

The SX-4 is ugly. It's not so ugly that it's cute; it's just ugly. While your photos are nice-looking, it's like putting a pig in the front yard of a Frank Lloyd Wright home -- it's still a pig in front of a beautiful backdrop.

Frank Lloyd Wright and beautiful in the same sentence? Now I understand your warped point of view...

I think the SX4 looks like some a 20 something might 10 years from now or so.

Suzuki read your mind for 2010. better engine and transmissions. I wish a moonroof was an option as well.
