Suzuki is said to be unveiling the Kizashi 3 (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/new-york-08-preview-suzuki-kisashi-concept-3-planned-for-debut/) at next week's New York Auto Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/NewYorkAutoShow/), so we thought we'd refresh our memories about the Manga-styled Kizashi 1 (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/11/frankfurt-2007-suzuki-kizashi-arrives-but-details-on-it-do-not/) and 2 (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/02/tokyo-motor-show-suzuki-kizashi-2/) concepts we saw at the Frankfurt Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/FrankfurtMotorShow/) and Tokyo Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/TokyoMotorShow/). There's still no information about what powertrain (we've heard talk of a V8 (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/30/rumormill-suzuki-to-unveil-v8-powered-kizashi-3-at-ny-show/)) or platform any car derived from the Kizashi concepts would ride upon, but we like where Suzuki's going with the idea. We expect that the Kizashi 3 may be nearly production-feasible, from what Suzuki has to say. Does this mean there's a sports sedan in the offing for Suzuki? Possibly (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/09/suzuki-has-big-plans-for-kizashi-concept-including-mondeo-rival/). Or not. For a taste of what it might be like to see one of these cars actually out in the wild, we've turned up some videos of the concepts riding around in a digital world, posted after the jump.
