This Samurai comes with the premium Rampage black soft top with tinted limo windows.  As an option, this soft top can be replaced with a new black Rally insulated one piece hard top (as shown on yellow Samurai). This Samurai has a clean, current Iowa title and is titled under Rod's Auto Sales (previously titled in Georgia).  We have run a Car Fax that shows this SUV as never being wrecked.  Rod's Auto Sales (also known as SamuraiSalvage)(Google to find our website), is offering this super nice, restored/reconditioned Samurai.  This Samurai has never seen a salty road and is 100% rust free, even under the plastic rocker panels, as shown.  It had zero rust before the restoration.  We have undercoated the entire under carriage.  Restoration included:  new original color red paint, new front and rear bumpers and new bumper end caps, new front and rear light assemblies, new windshield and gasket, new rubber door glass seals, new premium Rampage top with limo tint windows, new black spare tire cover.  We installed the largest tire possible without installing a lift kit.  New 235x75-R15 A/T tires on Suzuki chrome wheels.  One of our "featured product" 100 horse high-performance engines (only a few break-in miles).  This engine has the factory electronic fuel injection.  Originally the engine put out only 66 hp. You can actually achieve interstate speeds in this Samurai.  New heavy duty clutch kit.  Rebuilt transmission and transfer case.  New bearings and brakes in both axles.  All fluids changed.  Newer exhaust system.  Other upgrades include:  new transfer case urethane bushing, new transmission locate bolt and bushing, new motor mounts, new transmission mount, new starter relay, new 195 degree thermostat (heat gets nice and hot).  Now for the interior:  professionally reupholstered seats in two-tone leather, new black carpet set, dash is perfect with new center section and new cubby door, new ashtray, new glovebox door, new steering column surround, new black diamond plate door panels, new rubber clutch, brake and accelerator pads.  Everything on this Samurai works, without exception, and is ready to drive for years to come.  Suzuki made many upgrade changes for the 1990-1995 Samurai, which include:  electronic fuel injection, better wrap around seats that added two inches of legroom, larger outboard swaybar, larger capacity radiator, more compliant leaf springs with teflon inserts, improved dash and steering wheel, lower and more usable fifth gear ratio.  The '90-'95 Samurais are by far the most desirable years.  We also sell and install towbars, lift kits, winch bumpers, etc.  Send us your Samurai for a custom restoration project.  Check out some of our restorations at Facebook/SamuraiSalvage.  We also sell new and used OEM Suzuki Samurai, Sidekick and Tracker parts.  Google samuraisalvage to find our website.  Reasonable transport quotes are available to the potential serious buyer and the Samurai can be delivered to your front door.  Or we can pick you up at the Des Moines Airport or at the bus depot or train station.  Call Rod with questions at 641-751-2468.  This Samurai is also for sale locally at our car lot.  We reserve the right to end auction early, but once the reserve is met, it will no longer be for sale locally and the high bidder on auction will own this Samurai.

American Suzuki gets $100M in financing to go out of business... buy more cars?

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

American Suzuki Motor Corporation (ASMC), which declared bankruptcy in early November, has been approved by the courts for up to $100 million in debtor-in-possession financing to enable it to shutter its US car business. ASMC had received a $45 million loan from the Japanese parent company, Suzuki Motor Corporation (SMC), last month in order to make repayment deals with its franchise dealers. At the same time, ASMC was awaiting final court approval of this larger loan.
Out of the newly approved funds, $50 million can be used for operations, and oddly, the other $50 million can be put toward purchases of new inventory from SMC. That's right, even as existing inventory was headed for a smooth exit with the help of incentives, customer demand for orphan Suzuki models is so strong - last month's sales were up 22 percent compared to 2011 - that ASMC plans to purchase 2,500 additional cars from SMC that were built after the bankruptcy announcement. Good news for the owners of those vehicles: the top 50 dealers, representing more than 98 percent of ASMC sales, will become parts and services centers.
The press release below has more information. Unlike its recent tenure here, the end of Suzuki cars in the US looks like it's going rather well.

Suzuki ending auto sales in Canada, too

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Suzuki of Japan has reportedly made the decision that almost everyone assumed it would make when it announced it was leaving the US market: when the 2014 model year concludes, it will no longer sell cars in Canada. With six employees overseeing its auto business in Canada and a dealer network that has shrunk to 55 outlets in the country, we can't say we're shocked.
At the time of the US announcement, however, the senior VP of sales and marketing in the automotive division of Suzuki Canada said it would be able to survive on its own because, among other reasons, Canadians prefer smaller, more fuel-efficient cars that fit the company's offerings. Five months later, after some time to think about a 30-percent drop in sales to open up 2013 instead of the 1.4-percent increase in sales that Suzuki Canada posted last year, things have evidently changed.
The Globe and Mail reports that as is in the US, Suzuki's motorcycle, ATV and marine divisions in Canada will remain.

Incentives aid smooth Suzuki wind down

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

American Suzuki is continuing to offer buyers substantial incentives even as the company winds down operations. Those looking to nab a new Suzuki vehicle will find rebates of between $500 and $2,000 and zero-percent financing for up to 72 months as dealers look to liquidate inventory following the automaker's filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection last month. The strategy is working so far. Last month saw Suzuki sell a total of 2,224 vehicles, up 22 percent compared to the same time period in 2011. The Japanese manufacturer says it will continue the incentives through December.
Suzuki had around 5,000 units in dealer inventory in the US when it went into bankruptcy protection, with an additional 1,500-1,700 vehicles headed to dealers at that time. The company says it will continue to honor warranties moving forward using its current dealer network. Most of the dealerships will become Suzuki service and parts stores after American Suzuki shutters car sales in the US.
