What we saw when we arrived was a very sharp looking <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/kizashi\">Kizashi<\/a> done up in fiery red with new 18-inch alloy wheels, a deeper front chin spoiler, a trunklid spoiler and extended side sills with a dash of chrome here and there. While we had hoped to see a &#8220;V6&#8221; badge somewhere on it, we were sadly left wanting.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the 2011 Sport doesn&#8217;t have any performance tweaks in the engine bay, just the exterior changes and a firmed up suspension. There&#8217;s also a new sport steering wheel inside as well as contrasting stitching throughout. The Sport package will be available on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/07\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/\">Kizashi GTS<\/a> and SLS trim levels and ia scheduled to go on sale in the States this August. We have a sneaking suspicion that this is the same <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/11\/01\/suzuki-dresses-up-a-kizashi-for-halloween\/\">Kizashi concept<\/a> we saw several months ago out at Cars &amp; Coffee, not that there&#8217;s anything wrong with that.
