EVERY HEAD TURNS WHEN THIS BEAST CRANKS UP WITH THE BEAUTIFUL SOUND OF THE COBRA MOTOR. IT IS TASTEFULLY MODIFIED AND UPGRADED FOR FUN, DEPENDABILITY, AND INCREDIBLE DRIVABILITY. IT IS NOT A MONSTER HORSEPOWER DRAG RACER THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THIS IS ONE FINE MACHINE WITH LOTS OF SPORT TOURING CAPABILITY BECAUSE OF THE EXPENSIVE EFFORT TO MAKE IT BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL. THE MONEY SPENT AND THE PREPARATION TO GET THIS CAR TO THIS POINT IS HARD TO DESCRIBE. TO START IS THE EYE POPPING PAINT. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A FINER PAINT JOB THAT WAS NOT IN A CAR SHOW. IN FACT, THIS CAR WAS BEING PREPARED FOR THE CAR SHOW CIRCUIT AND SPENT MANY YEARS IN HEATED/COOLED GARAGE STORAGE BEING DRIVEN ONLY TO KEEP IT FUNCTIONAL. THE SUSPENSION IS TIGHT AND LOWERED JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT. TAPPING ON THE THROTTLE IN 1ST OR 2ND AND YOU GET THE BACK TIRES TO CHIRP. GIVE IT THE GAS AND IT WILL DO A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN CHIRP!

REMEMBER WHEN YOU BID, YOU ARE CONTRACTING TO BUY THIS CAR. NO MONEY? NO BIDDING!  THERE IS NO WARRANTY WITH THIS SALE. CAR IS SOLD AS IS FOB LONGVIEW, TX. ALL STATEMENTS MADE ARE TRUE AND CORRECT ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION AVAILABLE AT TIME OF BIDDING.

THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN REGISTERED SINCE 2000 WHEN WE PURCHASED IT EARLIER THIS YEAR. WE TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO OUR TRUSTY MECHANIC WHO GAVE IT THE THOROUGH INSPECTION AND IN DEPTH PREPARATION FOR BEING DRIVEN (INVOICES TOTALED $2,100.00 FOR THIS VISIT). PULLED THE BRAND NEW WHEELS AND TIRES TO CHECK SUSPENSION AND BEARINGS. ALL FLUIDS CHANGED AND SAFETY CONCERNS WERE ADDRESSED. THIS PRECAUTION WAS TAKEN WITH NOTHING FOUND OTHER THAN A ROUGH IDLE (OLD GASOLINE) AND SOME SERIOUS HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING. THE MECHANIC FOUND THERE WERE LIGHT BULBS NEEDING REPLACED, TURN SIGNAL SWITCH, FREON WAS LOW IN A/C, ETC. AS WE LIFTED THE CAR IT WAS OBVIOUS THIS WAS NOT A LOW BUDGET RIDE. THE SUBFRAME CONNECTORS, THE EIBACH SPRINGS, THE BRAND NEW CROSS DRILLED ROTORS AND COBRA R WHEELS AND TIRES WERE JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. WE PULLED THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK OFF TO CHECK THE FUEL FILTERS AND FACTORY PUMP. THE GASKETS WERE NEEDING REPLACEMENT SO WE REBUILT THE TANK AND PUT ON A BRAND NEW COBRA FUEL PUMP. 

THE BEAST THEN CAME ALIVE! THE FLOWMASTERS MADE SOUNDS THROUGH THE BBK HEADERS THAT ARE MUSIC TO A MOTORHEAD. IT WAS HARD TO BELIEVE THIS 5.0 WAS STOCK INTERNALS BECAUSE WHEN WE GOT IT DOWN AND DROVE IT FOR THE FIRST REAL TEST DRIVE WE FOUND IT PULLS LIKE A TRACTOR AND CANNOT GET TRACTION IN 1ST OR 2ND IF YOU ARE MASHING ON IT. GOOD THING THE BRAKES ARE UPGRADED.THIS THING STOPS ON A DIME WITH GREAT PEDAL FEEL AND SOME SERIOUS BRAKING POWER... WHOA BABY!

THE GEAR RATIOS ARE STOCK (IT LOAFS AT 22OO RPM AT 70MPH IN 5TH GEAR OVERDRIVE). IT GETS WELL OVER 20 MPG ON THE HIGHWAY. SOME SAY THESE CARS CAN GET 25 MPG BUT I HAVEN'T CONFIRMED THAT NUMBER. THIS CAR IS WAYYYY TOO FINE FOR MY SON TO JUST BANG AROUND IN THE PARKING LOTS AT COLLEGE (SORRY ABOUT THAT SON!) SO WE ARE PUTTING IT UP FOR SALE. THE RETAIL VALUE OF THIS CAR WITH 41K MILES ACCORDING TO ONLINE ESTIMATES IS $15-17K. THE AMAZING THING IS THIS WILL MAKE ALL THE OTHER 1994-1995 COBRA'S LOOK WEAK BECAUSE OF THE ULTRA FINE PAINT JOB AND THE TASTEFUL MODIFICATIONS. 

YOU CANNOT GET QUALITY LIKE THIS FOR LESS! THIS IS THE CAR YOU'VE BEEN WAITING ON... SPRING IS HERE AND IT'S TIME TO SLIP OFF THE 7 LAYER CUSTOM CAR COVER (INCLUDED WITH THE SALE) CRANK UP THE 5.0 COBRA MOTOR, PUSH THE DOWN BUTTON FOR THE WINDOWS AND LISTEN TO THE 5.0 MAKE MUSIC WHILE YOU ROW THE GEARS. IF THAT GETS BORING YOU CAN PUSH THE POWER WINDOWS UP AND FEEL THE ICE COLD AIR CONDITIONING AND LISTEN TO THE 600W SUBS GO BOOM BOOM BOOM. THIS CAR ATTRACTS MORE ATTENTION THAN CURRENT SHELBY GT500'S BECAUSE IT IS RARE, FINE AND... WELL IT'S JUST GOT THE STANCE AND SOUND THAT ONLY COMES FROM THE LEGENDARY 5.0 COBRA MOTOR. 

THE NEGATIVES: ALL OF THESE ARE MINOR ISSUES - 1. THE THROW OUT BEARING MAKES A NOISE THROUGH THE CLUTCH PEDAL. ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC THIS IS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE FORD FACTORY NON-ADJUSTABLE CLUTCH CABLE SYSTEM ON THE 1995/5.0 ENGINE. HE SAID HE HAS TRIED REPLACING CLUTCH, PRESSURE PLATE AND THROWOUT BEARING ON THESE MODELS AND THE NOISE WOULD STILL BE THERE! THE CLUTCH IS FINE BUT THE MINOR NOISE IS SOMETHING I WOULD WANT TO FIX WITH AN AFTERMARKET ADJUSTABLE CABLE KIT OR MAYBE EVEN A WHOLE NEW CLUTCH WITH ADJUSTER.  2. THERE ARE TWO DOOR DINGS FROM PARKING LOTS. JUST TWO! BUT THE PAINT IS SO FINE THESE REALLY SHOW UP WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING. ONE IS 3/4 INCH AT THE CHARACTER LINE ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR JUST BEHIND THE MIRROR. THE OTHER IS 1/4 INCH ON THE PASSENGER DOOR A LITTLE FURTHER BACK. 3. IT NEEDS A NEW RUBBER GASKET ON THE RIGHT FRONT TURN SIGNAL. 4. THE DRIVER'S POWER SEAT HAS A BROKEN PIECE IN THE SEAT TRACK. I AM ORDERING A REPLACEMENT NOW AND IT SHOULD FIXED BY 04/20/14 UNLESS IT SELLS BEFORE THEN. 5. THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK LATCH HAS THE PLASTIC BUTTON MISSING. 6. THE STEERING WHEEL IS 1 OR 2 NOTCHES OFF CENTER. THE FRONT END MEASUREMENTS ARE ALL PERFECT AND IT DRIVES STRAIGHT AND TRUE WITH NO VIBRATIONS. 7. IT'S A LITTLE BIT TOO LOUD FOR ME. I LIKE TO HEAR THE HEADERS THROUGH A MODEST MUFFLER. THE FLOWMASTERS DRONE A LITTLE AT CRUISING SPEED BUT NOT ANNOYINGLY SO. BUT IT SURE DOES MAKE AN AWESOME SOUND AT START UP AND TIPPING IN THE THROTTLE. YOU CAN EASE AROUND FAIRLY QUIETLY BUT YOU CANNOT GO UNNOTICED WHEN YOU MASH ON IT. IT'S L-O-U-D!

THE EXTERIOR OF THIS CAR IS ALMOST A 10 OUT OF 10. THE INTERIOR IS A 9 OUT OF 10. THE DRIVETRAIN IS A 9 OUT OF 10. IT'S NOT PERFECT BUT IT IS BY FAR THE BEST 1995 COBRA I HAVE EVER SEEN OR DRIVEN. THIS CAR IS ADVERTISED ELSEWHERE AND FOR SALE LOCALLY, HOWEVER, YOU CAN END THE SALE IMMEDIATELY WITH THE BUY IT NOW PRICE.

THANKS FOR READING AND GOOD LUCK ON BIDDING. CONTACT ME THROUGH EBAY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ARRANGE SHIPPING. I HAVE SOME IDEAS AND ADVICE THAT WILL SAVE YOU MONEY AND TIME WHEN CHOOSING A SHIPPER.

Suzuki back in MotoGP for 2015

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

It had been planned for 2014 but it's going to be 2015 instead - that's when Suzuki returns to the manufacturer ranks of MotoGP after quitting the series at the end of 2011 because of The Great Recession. When Suzuki stopped after 37 continuous years of racing, it said it intended to return three years later and it has been in talks with MotoGP's rights holder, Dorna Sports, since last year. No doubt, though, that fan anticipation of the team's return outdoes any dismay at the delay. It will join Yamaha, Honda and Ducati in the premiere league.
Its bike has already been testing in Japan and was with the official MotoGP tribe in Barcelona, Spain on Monday when Suzuki announced its return. It's said the development bike is called the XRH-1, being ridden by official tester Randy de Puniet (who currently races in MotoGP on an Aprilia-based bike with TeamAspar). and after a day of testing de Puniet got the new Suzuki to within seven-tenths of a second of the top time posted by other MotoGP teams. Davide Brivio, who once ran the Fiat-Yamaha team and has been close with Valentino Rossi, will be the team manager.
Speaking of Rossi, The Doctor is back with Fiat-Yamaha after a bad run with Ducati but is only contracted to the end of 2014. Brivio is the man who got Rossi to join Fiat-Yamaha, then got him to Ducati. Until he took the head of Suzuki's works effort, Brivio was working with Rossi's VR46 management company, heading areas like merchandising. The rumormill has already begun its work, with folks wondering if Rossi will head to Suzuki in 2015 if his second stint at Yamaha doesn't prove fruitful before then. Scroll down below for the official press release from Suzuki.

Chip shortage will hit Nissan, Suzuki and Mitsubishi in June

Sat, May 22 2021

TOKYO — A global chip shortage is forcing Nissan and Suzuki to temporarily halt production at some plants in June, sources with direct knowledge of the plans told Reuters on Friday. Nissan will idle its factory in Kyushu, southern Japan, for three days on June 24, 25 and 28, while making production adjustments during the month at its Tochigi and Oppama plants in Japan, three sources said. Nissan will also temporarily halt production of some of its models at its Mexico plant, they said, declining to be identified because the plan is not public. "A global shortage of semiconductors has affected parts procurement in the auto sector. Due to the shortage, Nissan is adjusting production and taking necessary actions to ensure recovery," a Nissan spokeswoman said. Suzuki will idle its three plants in Shizuoka prefecture from three to nine days, two sources said, also declining to be identified because the plan is not public. The plan "has not been confirmed," a Suzuki spokesman said, explaining that while the carmaker gave its provisional production plan to auto part makers, it is still making adjustments to minimize the impact of the chip shortage. Elsewhere, Mitsubishi will reduce production by 30,000 vehicles in total in June at five plants in Japan, Thailand and Indonesia, a spokeswoman said, adding that the impact has already been factored into its earnings outlook for the current fiscal year.

Suzuki Jimny LCV is a bare-bones two-seater

Fri, Jul 9 2021

The Suzuki Jimny is a truly versatile vehicle, and we don't just mean in its prodigious off-road capabilities. Turns out, the compact 4x4 can be configured in a variety of ways to skirt the road tax rules and enthusiast demands of various markets, making it an even more desirable proposition for a budget four-wheeler. The latest variant arrives in the form of the Jimny LCV for the U.K. market. That stands for Light Commercial Vehicle, and as such it's not subject to the same strict emissions rules as passenger cars. It also means that it doesn't come with any rear seats, expanding the cargo area to just a hair over 30 cubic feet. In fact, the U.K.'s emissions laws were so strict, Suzuki was forced to take the Jimny off the market in early 2020. After a year's hiatus, this workaround was the only way to bring the popular SUV back to old Blighty. There's only one trim level to the Jimny LCV. It comes with solid colors, but you can order metallic or two-tone paint for an extra charge, its only option. As with most LCVs, there's a safety partition separating the cargo from the front seats. Compared to the passenger version with all seats folded flat, there's an extra 1.2 cubic feet of hauling space. The Jimny LCV might just be the latest version, but it's not the only one. There's already a narrow-body and small displacement version to qualify it as a kei car in its native Japan. Also, there's the recently announced Jimny Lite to serve as a blank canvas for enthusiasts who want to build their own rig. Like the Jimny Lite, the Jimny LCV comes with analog climate controls as opposed to digital, a traditional stereo in place of a touchscreen, halogen headlights instead of LED, 15-inch steel wheels instead of aluminum and a five-speed manual as the only transmission option. It differs from the cost-saving Lite, however, in that the LCV retains its fog lamps. Of course, it the LCV still retains the things that make it a great off-roader, including the ladder-frame construction, solid front and rear axles, and low-range gearing. In essence, it's a wink to true enthusiasts who missed their chance to get a Jimny prior to 2020. Suzuki U.K. says that it will be "available in very limited numbers" for 2021. So, if you live there and want a new Jimny, the four-wheeling gods have given you a rare second chance. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
