2004 Suzuki Verona...
 

I am in the market for a new car and have looked at the 2004 Suzuki
Verona (v6) and was wanting to know from others out there who own this
car (or not) what they think about this particular model.

When I went to the Hyundai/Suzuki dealership, I looked at both the 4
cylinder and 6 cylinder, however, I only test drove the v6 and was
hooked on it so much in terms of power that I didn't test drive the 4
cylinder.

Any feedback regarding either model would be appreciated....

The Verona only comes with 1 engine. A 2.5 liter inline 6 cylinder.
The pistons are in a row instead of in a V shape (doesn't make much
difference). There is no 4 cylinder model, but only different
equipment/trim levels. It's an inexpensive car with lot's of standard
equipment, but not much passing power. If equipment and price are
more important than power/performance then there aren't really many
other cars in this price range with this combination of size and
equipment. It sounds like it has enough power for you, from you're
comment. You may want to check out the Hyundai Sonata V6 to compare,
which received an excellent rating in initial quality from JD Powers
and Associates. It also has a little better crash test rating and
more powerful engine. In terms of reliability, the Verona is so new
that this is still an unknown, but other cars from Daewoo (Daewoo
makes the Verona for Suzuki) have done very poor in quality indexes.
One the plus side, many people think that the Verona has nicer
interior styling and a good warranty that is transferable if you end
up selling the car.

I checked the Suzuki website and figured out that the 4 cylinder I was
referring to is the Suzuki Forenza.

FYI: The Forenza is also made by Daewoo for Suzuki.
