Linden, Virginia, United States

This is a 1988 and a half Suzuki Samurai.  It is in excellent condition.  This is my third Samurai and it is by far the nicest (not only the nicest I have ever owned but the nicest I have ever seen).  I bought this a couple of years ago off of a certified mechanic.  The Samurai runs fantastic, no noises, smoke, or leaks of any kind.  Everything functions as new.  It has been the perfect little vehicle and has never let me down (ever).  It is inspected and has no problem doing 65 to 70 mph.  
Specs:  
-Rebuilt Transmission.  This was rebuilt by the certified mechanic I purchased it from.  I have pictures of the rebuild if needed.  
-31x10.5 all terrain tires (90% tread or better) on a 5 inch spring over axle lift (SPOA).  All of the work was done by After Market 4x4 who specializes in Samurais.
-Rocky Road outfitters front bumper (brush guard) with hitch.  And a triangle easy-tow-bar which is not pictured, but just makes it a dream to pull behind a motor home (which is what I used this vehicle for).  
-Tuffy Box center console (nice lockable armrest with 2 cup holders).
-Rear tow hitch with rack.
-Diamond plate side panels (running boards), door panels (interior), panels above rear tires (interior), and tail gate panel (interior).  

Body
-The certified mechanic that I purchased the vehicle from painted it and did a very good job.  The paint is thick and has orange peel texture to it but it looks fantastic and is practically scratch resistant.  There are not scratches on the vehicle at all.  There are a few small dings on the passenger side that are about penny side but they were too small to come out in photos and really are not noticeable at all.  The biggest imperfection on the vehicle is a small ding below the driver side head light (this is covered up by the front bumper and it is just a small ding, about 1 inch by 3 inches.  Sorry about all the details, I just want to be thorough.  The vehicle looks amazing, it is truly a beauty.  

Engine
-Engine runs great, no noise, smoke, or leaks and has plenty of power. 

THE BAD:
The seats do have a few rips but still function well.  I have seat covers on them that look great so I have never worried about getting them re-upholstered. 

Hope this is enough to give you guys a good idea on how nice this Samurai really is but if you have any questions please feel free to call me at 540-Seven One Eight-0192.  Any time after 5 PM Monday-Friday and anytime on the weekend (East Coast Time).  

I will ship the vehicle at the buyers expense or you can simply fly in and DRIVE IT HOME.  I drive the vehicle to a hunting lease about once a month (3 hour round trip).

Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency

Sun, 25 May 2014

Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.

Suzuki testing Grand Vitara replacement that is now forbidden fruit

Sun, 02 Feb 2014

Suzuki might be dead in the US, but its cars are still thriving in many other markets. Aside from the updated SX4 and a slew of promising concepts at the Tokyo Motor Show, Suzuki is getting ready to launch a much-needed replacement for the aged Grand Vitara, and our spy photographers recently caught the compact SUV testing in Sweden.
Judging by these spy shots, the replacement for the current Grand Vitara - it may or may not retain the Grand Vitara name - will take its styling cues from the Suzuki iV-4 Concept displayed at last year's Frankfurt Motor Show. These cues include the narrow, angular headlights, the sloped D-pillars and we even get a hint of the sculpted rear-wheel arches. We hear that the new Suzuki SUV could go on sale in Europe next year, so we'd expect it to debut later in 2014.

Next Suzuki SX4 spotted again

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Thanks to a sketch of the Suzuki S-Cross concept, we can already see the styling direction that the next-generation SX4 will take, and Suzuki is still hard at work on the production version of the car as evidenced by this latest batch of spy shots. These photos look almost identical to those captured back in July, but we see a little more detail at the rear of the car and get a better idea of the next SX4's proportions.
With the baggy camouflage lifted up at the rear of this prototype, we can see that the SX4 replacement has a very Mazda-chic look to it with downward-angled taillights that stretch into the liftgate. Aside from this, the big news is that we're finally getting a sense of the new SX4's size. Suzuki's press release attached to the Paris-bound S-Cross sketch said that the SX4 replacement would be growing to the compact segment rather than being a subcompact like the current car. Recent reports indicate that the next version of this car will be sized closer to the Grand Vitara, and in these pictures, you can definitely see how much the car has grown.
Still unknown is when we can expect to see the production version of the new SX4, or what will be inside it (available turbo power?), but hopefully Suzuki will not delay things like it did with the Kizashi and its numerous concepts.
