Up for auction is my 1990 Suzuki Samurai. I have no reserve on this listing. It is a really nice Samurai and has lots of new parts. In the last 8 months it has been repainted, seats recovered, carpet replaced and 4 new tires. Since then I have installed a new top, glovebox door, cubby door on dash, full set of abs panels, brake master cylinder, driver window regulator, window crank, outside drivers door handle and upgraded the window felt to the rubber type. The rims are factory and I was told they were an option from Suzuki. The paint is nice but it does have a very few small dings that are expected for a 23 year old vehicle. The engine is fuel injected and in my opinion runs much better than a carbureted Samurai. Engine runs great and does not smoke. The transmission and transfer case work great also. The heat works fine and this Samurai doesn't have air conditioning. There are only two negatives on this Samurai and they are very minor........there is a small crack in the exhaust down pipe in front of the catalytic converter. It would be an easy fix for a muffler shop. Also there is a small leak on the front output of the transfer case. This is the seal behind the flange where the front driveshaft bolts up. It's an easy fix also. I encourage anyone that's interested to come out and look at the Samurai. You will not be disappointed. Send me a message through eBay if you're interested in making an appointment. Buyer is responsible for picking up or shipment of vehicle. A paypal deposit is also required at the auction end. This vehicle is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for looking.

Which automaker's 84-year-old CEO is making investors nervous?
Sun, 06 Jul 2014We haven't heard much about Suzuki since it decided to leave the US market in 2012, but things are going well for the little automaker these days with the recent announcement of record annual profits. It would seem that investors should be ecstatic, but they are starting to question the man at the helm. Company president and chairman Osamu Suzuki is now 84 years old and is guaranteed at least one more year as the leader, but shareholders want to know who is taking his place when the inevitable happens.
We're not being ageist, here. As long as the Suzuki can run the company to the satisfaction of investors, he absolutely deserves the top spot. According to Bloomberg, the issue making shareholders so edgy is that the business doesn't have a transition plan in place. The president obviously isn't a young man, and folks are worried that if something happens suddenly, there could be chaos deciding a successor and a free-falling stock price.
Suzuki's tenure at the company is somewhat astounding. He married the granddaughter of the founder and took her name because the family had no male heirs. In world where many people hope to retire as soon as possible, he's worked for the same automaker for the last 50 years, including stints as company president from 1978 to 2000 and 2008 to the present. Investors aren't questioning the president's ability as a business leader; they just want a clearer understanding of the automaker's future direction.
Suzuki: 'No comment' on returning to the U.S. with the Jimny
Tue, Oct 2 2018It is impossible not to love the Suzuki Jimny. A prototypical cute ute, with equal parts cuteness and utility, it not only defined its segment, it became a cult classic. Now, it's back, but unfortunately unlikely to come to the American market as the Jimny, Samurai or anything else. "We have no comment on the Jimny or Suzuki returning to the U.S. market," says Nathalie Geslin, a spokesperson for Suzuki in France, from the floor of the Paris Motor Show, where the adorable Jimny made its recent premiere. "For that you'll have to ask Suzuki headquarters in Japan." In France, this is what is known as Le Brushoff. Geslin did confirm that, in the markets around the world where the Jimny will appear, it will be available only in one spec: an adaptable, RWD/AWD, closed hardtop with a manual transmission with available Low range, and powered by a 102-horsepower 1.5-liter gasoline engine. "Suzuki has eliminated diesel motors from their whole range," she said, a notable move and a trend flowing from the fuel's immutable high particulate and noxious gas emissions, and growing global sensitivity to their effects. Actually, she tells us, there will be one other spec. "In the Japanese market, there will be a Kei Car version, an actual smaller Kei Car, which means it will be powered by a motor of less than 600cc." Just 1,500 of these cars are expected to be sold in the French market, mainly to people who, according to Geslin, are not off-reading aficionados, but "People who go off-roading in their normal life, who live in the mountains or work in an area with rugged conditions." This sounds to us like a description of every small-scale goat cheese producer in the White Mountains in rural Vermont, every boutique mountainside vintner in Sonoma county, every yellow micro-beet farmer in the Wisconsin Dells. And all of us who live in four-season climates and love the outdoors but think a Jeep is perfect except that it's a third too large. Like the Jeep, the Jimny is retro cool without being retro. It is just itself. And we need it. If it takes only 1,500 potential buyers in France to allow it to be sold there, how many does that translate to in America? If all of us start emailing Suzuki headquarters every day to beg for it, maybe we can find out. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
