Wait, so what's so great about buying a Suzuki Aerio?

A couple people here mentioned getting them to save money / gas mileage since either their other car is a project car or they don't live far from where they work so they really dont need a nice car for the daily commute or maybe even they live in a neighborhood with some real pricks that key cars and they dont want to spend the money on a nice car only to have it damaged by people who should be shot.

So I'm like hmm that's an interesting idea, I wonder how much one of them costs.

So I go to KBB expecting a 4-digit price, but I see they're $13-16k. Uhm why the FUCK would anyone buy that over a Civic?! Just get a damn Civic and Honda reliability and a better car for the same price.

Wow.

Someone tell me I'm looking at the wrong Suzuki please, because that's ridiculous.

So you want the sales figure for Suzuki Aerio to be zero? You want absolutely nobody buying this car? Impossible. Even though you think this is the ugliest car in the world ever, even though you can not even find one forte about this car, somebody would still buy it. But look at the monthly sales figures, Civic outsold it too much already.

What the hell is that guy talking about?

I never said ANY of that stuff, ahahahaha. I made my questions clear. It's priced the same as a Civic and clearly most people would much rather drive a known reliable name brand. =]

I owned a Suzuki Swift GTI quite few years back .other than one trip to the dealer to have a blown cam seal replaced (it was a bulletin from them I found out) the car never broke again after that .My exgirlfriend drove the car after I sold it to her for about a 150000 miles .She put a heater core in the thing that was about it .Except for normal maintenance the thing was bulletproof and actually a lot of fun to drive .It reminded me of a modern Mini .(not that retro shitbox out there now) .
