For sale is my 1986 Suzuki Samurai with less than 81000 original miles.  It has been repainted and reupholstered by the original owner.  Other than a Weber carb I had installed on it last year, it is all original with no modifications.  It has a full top and bikini top.  The rear seat is perfect and is kept in storage since I never needed it.  The rear brakes were replaced and a new clutch and cable were installed this year.  It uses a little oil but not much.  It did get over 30 mpg average with the original Hitachi carburetor, gets only 28-29 now with the Weber but runs like a new one and will cruise at 70 mph.  It has a Pioneer stereo with 2 USB and 1 aux inputs, CD player, and 4 speakers.  There is a box of spare parts including a complete Hitachi carb that probably needs rebuilding, some lights, new weather stripping for the windows, 2 new Pioneer speakers, and I don't know what else there is.  The two tops are getting some sun rot on the straps but both work well and should be good for a couple more years.

I bought this Samurai from a dealer in El Paso in June 2009 when it has 66134 miles on it.  It had spent its entire life in New Mexico so there's no rust except on the cheap aftermarket wheels.  The tires still had the chalk marks when I got it and the spare still does, it has never been on the road.  I've used it as a semi-daily driver but don't drive much since I'm 62 and retired.  We used it very much like a golf cart in our small community, just driving around and admiring the sunset and having a cold one or two.  We took it to the beach in Galveston one time and that's the only time it's been off road since I've had it.

The original owner told me that he had towed it sometimes behind his motorhome into the mountains in New Mexico and it has a collapsible and removable tow bar.  I towed it back from El Paso to our home south of Houston with a Toyota Tacoma and it tows just great.

 

I'm asking $5500 obo and have it listed it locally so reserve the right to sell it outside ebay.  It's hunting season now and this Samurai is ready to go just like it is.

Suzuki calls in 26,000 Daewoo-built Veronas for overheating lights

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

Suzuki is recalling yet another Daewoo-built model due to possible problems with the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. This time it covers about 25,899 units of the Suzuki Verona from the 2004 through 2006 model years that need fixing. Like the repair campaign of the Forenza and Reno in May, it's possible for the part to overheat, melt and potentially cause a fire.
According to the Chronology of Principal Events section in the defect notice submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, this recall was actually a direct result of the Forenza/Reno campaign. After finding the problem in those vehicles, General Motors Korea started investigating for more affected models and discovered that the Verona was also at risk. However, the report says that no cases of melting or fires have been found in the Verona.
Obviously, Suzuki will be notifying affected owners and will replace the DRL module free of charge. Scroll down to read the recall request or check out the full defect notice in PDF format, here.

Suzuki brings basket of forbidden cute to Tokyo

Sat, Oct 3 2015

Suzuki looks to be celebrating its newly independent status from Volkswagen with quite a slate of debuts at this year's Tokyo Motor Show at the end of October. While it's often a putdown to call a car cute, the company has some models going on display that are totally adorable. Unless you wait around a couple decades to import one, they're also never going to see the roads here. With its big eyes and compact, chunky looks, the Ignis might be the new definition of cute 'ute. Clearly based on the iK-2 concept from this year's Geneva Motor Show, the latest interpretation softens the angular lines a little bit. The Ignis Trail Concept tries to make the standard version look a little more off-road ready with black fender flares and larger wheels. Meanwhile, the Mighty Deck concept looks like a toy car with its black roof, yellow body, and dark blue bumper. The model offers some interesting functionality with a small cargo bed in the back, complete with a tiny tailgate. The opening canvas top could make for a fun drive, too. Suzuki is also giving the incredibly cool Air Triser concept a world premiere in Tokyo. The compact, three-row minivan sports a retro-futuristic design. On the outside, glass wraps around nearly the whole thing, except for a thick pillar where the sliding doors come together. However, the interior has a wood floor, and the seats can be reconfigured to form a couch. There's even a screen in the B-pillar for everyone to watch together. We look forward to seeing if these models are as quirky in real life in just a few weeks. SUZUKI EXHIBITS AT THE 44TH TOKYO MOTOR SHOW Suzuki Motor Corporation has announced its exhibits for the 44th Tokyo Motor Show 2015 (organised by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association), which will open to the public on 30 October until 8 November. The theme for Suzuki's booth is "SUZUKI NEXT 100". Suzuki will be celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2020, so the exhibits represent proposals for products and technologies that give a sense of the company's preparations for ongoing success in the next 100 years. A range of concept models will show how Suzuki can deliver wonder and enjoyment to drivers and riders. The concept cars will include the IGNIS, which gives shape to Suzuki's foray into the new compact crossover genre; and the MIGHTY DECK, which offers new kinds of fun in the minicar segment.

Suzuki previews new S-Cross compact CUV ahead of Paris debut

Fri, 10 Aug 2012

Despite having one heck of a lackluster presence here in the United States, Suzuki still manages to do well in other markets. That in mind, the automaker continually releases new products and concept cars at international auto shows that aren't destined for U.S. consumption, but this might not be one of those times.
The aging SX4 crossover is in need of replacement, and if Suzuki is still committed to selling passenger cars in the States, something fresh like this S-Cross concept could be just the ticket. Suzuki has, after all, confirmed that the S-Cross will eventually make its way into production.
We have no other details to divulge about the S-Cross, except that it's a small crossover concept and that it will make its public debut at the Paris Motor Show in September. Suzuki says that the S-Cross has a "Emotion x Quality x Aerodynamics" design theme that uses "distinctive dynamic lines that start on the front bumper, sweep across the doors, and continue to the rear of the body." No offense, Suzuki, but we've heard that before.
