2007 Suzuki Forenza Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
After making some noteworthy changes in 2006, the Suzuki Forenza compact took it easy in 2007 and only added a tire pressure monitoring system. The Forenza continues to live by two words: value and versatility. To compensate its less-than-intimidating 2.0 L, 127 hp I4 engine, this 4 door, 5 passenger model gives you 6 trims: the Base, Convenience, and Popular Sedans and Wagons. All 6 give you standard 5 speed manual transmission or optional 4 speed automatic. Expect to get around 22 mpg in the city, 30 on the highway. The Premium Wagon and Sedan come with a sunroof while the Base Wagon and Sedan give you optional ABS brakes. The Sedans have 12.4 cubic feet in the trunk while the Wagons deliver a comfortable 19.3. Finally, expect around 116 cubic feet of passenger room in the Wagons compared to 107.5 for the Sedans. Overall, Forenza owners appreciate the low price and solid gas mileage. Otherwise, brace yourself for bumpy handling and the general lack of refinement you would expect from a budget compact. The Forenza presents a solid option for your first car and will ultimately get you where you need to go. However, anyone looking to take a seat in the lap of luxury will need to adjust their expectations.

Bought a used 2007 Suzuki Forenza for $2,500 with 60,000 miles on it at a used car dealership. Drove great, just tire bearing needed to be fixed. 3 weeks later it made engine clanking sounds while driving, started to pull over. It wouldnt accelerate. Started it up hours later, had the same sounds while parked, got 800 feet from the location it was parked and the engine died. Tried to jump it, wouldnt start. Tried replacing the timing belt, valves, still wouldnt start. Checked the battery, batteries fine. So we replaced the whole motor. Took the old motor out put the new motor in. ($1000 for new motor, $500 for mechanical labor). The car wouldnt start with the new motor so now after driving the car for 3 weeks and without it for 3-4 weeks. Spending $2500 on the car and $1500 for new motor and labor. Now having to pay another $500 for labor to switch out another motor. Who even knows that this next motor will work. Ill be spending in total of $4500 I couldve gotten a better car for that price and it last for years. Suzukis suck and also this used car lot. This was my first one after having a honda civic 01 and a chevy cobalt 05 both great cars, no problems ever. Until I bought a newer year, a 2007. Trust the older cars. Their cheaper to fix if it has any problems. And get the american brands Sep 22, 2021

Suzuku Forenza is a great city car. It s almost compact sized, therefore gas consumption is low. easy to maintain, easy access to dealers and aftermarket parts. the bottom line is, it is a Japanese car. i have many friends who own forenzas, and they all love their cars.Sep 13, 2014

The Forenza is a basic compact car. Great for getting around town and decent handling. It makes a good car for a single person needing a dependable car. Interior is roomy and has good truck space. Mechanically is reliable and dependable.Aug 09, 2014

I love my car. I have had a couple of repairs that I had to do. My radio had to be replaced and I have had a couple of flats. Overall this car has been a good car. I bough it used. It performs well. It is not a sports car but I didn't want one. It was relatively cheap which is why I bought it. I have not had any major problems.Sep 06, 2009

It has enough power to get it to go but not too much more. The actual drive is nice and the warranty kicks total butt. So far I have had to use it for the center console, the mirrors, the rear wiper, and probably the valve cover gasket . So, at least it looks nice. Gets good gas milage, drives okay, smooth. Neat features inside.Feb 02, 2009

What users have asked
Gas gushing back out while putting gas in my 2007 Suzuki Forensa
Every time I try to put gas in my 2007 Suzuki Forensa, even if it is almost on empty, it won't take more than about a dollars worth of gas and then all of a sudden the gas comes spewing back out all over the pavement. What could be causing this?
