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.

2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Motorcycle trends come and go like fashion, and the latest two-wheeled style du jour is the adventure bike. Chunky and rugged, these (sometimes) dirt-ready rides often take cues from the massive, Armageddon-ready rigs you'd find on the Dakar Rally. In their most neutered form, they can start as street bikes and adapt for adventure duty by adding taller suspension setups, removable saddlebags, bigger fuel tanks, and better wind protection.
Lying smack in the middle of that dirt/road matrix (and leaning toward the tarmac side) is the 2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS. A venerable fixture in the adventure scene, it developed a primarily urban following after the model bowed in 2004, though it's also proved itself worthy of tackling trails and light offroad scenarios. For automotive folks not steeped in the vagaries of the motorcycle world, the V-Strom is the two-wheeled equivalent of the late, great Mitsubishi Montero: capable, no-nonsense, and a bit of an unsung hero in the face of more glamorous offroaders like the Land Rover LR4 and the Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen.
Suzuki has to take out $45M loan just to shutter US dealers
Thu, 08 Nov 2012Bloomberg reports American Suzuki is set to borrow up to $45 million to to close its automotive dealerships and freshen up its it motorcycle and marine business. Suzuki Motor Corporation will loan American Suzuki the funds at three percent below the London Interbank offered rate in order to offer dealer owners a cash payment in exchange for voluntarily abandoning franchise agreements. The company's 216 dealers have 10 days to make a decision on the matter. Under the plan, Suzuki would give dealer owners half of what they're owed in one lump sum, and the dealers would then be able to pursue the remaining debt through the company's bankruptcy procedure.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Scott C. Clarkson granted American Suzuki interim authority to borrow the funds, but Bloomberg reports the company will likely return to court in a few weeks to seek up to $100 million. According to Richard Pachulski, a lawyer for Suzuki America, the automaker may owe its dealers somewhere around $50 million.
Junkyard Gem: 2005 Suzuki Aerio SX Suzuki Works Techno
Sun, Apr 19 2020Americans started buying new Suzuki cars with the debut of the 1985 Chevrolet Sprint and continued doing so through the era of the Geo/Chevrolet Metro and Tracker. Sales of the Samurai mini-SUV took off during the late 1980s, and the Swift sibling to the Metro became available here starting in 1989. The Suzuki American dream— at least the part involving four-wheeled, highway-legal vehicles— came crashing down in 2012, but the 2000s gave American Suzuki fans some interesting-yet-affordable machinery. We got the Kizashi (the side marker lights of which make great jack-O-lantern eyes) and the Suzuki Works Techno package for the Reno and the Aerio in 2005. I found a Reno SWT in California a few months back and figured that would be the first and last Suzuki Works Techno car I ever saw, but then this Aerio appeared in a Colorado car graveyard not long after that. The first two Fast & Furious movies proved to be a tremendous cultural influence on youthful car buyers, and Suzuki created the SWT package to cash in on the hunger for "carbon fiber" and "horsepower" in an affordable package. You didn't get anything that made the car go faster when you checked the SWT box, but you did get alloy wheels and "carbon fiber-styled" stuff all over the place, including the license-plate frame. The SX was the top-of-the-line Aerio in 2005, selling for (well, asking for) $15,449 with front-wheel-drive. That's about $20,900 in 2020 dollars. The hatchback version had some minivan/CUV-ness to its shape. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. In most of the world outside of Japan and North America, this car had Liana badging. Perhaps the most famous Aerio/Liana of all time was the original Reasonably Priced Car on Top Gear UK, a 2002 Liana saloon. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Nobohiro "Monster" Tajima drove a modified-beyond-recognition Aerio hatchback up Pikes Peak in 2001, but it got knocked out by mechanical woes. We can't say what knocked out this Aerio, but it wouldn't have been the interior scent— not with three "Relax" Car-Freshner Little Trees on the job. Sadly, the Relax scent is no longer available. Whatever happened, it involved the car breaking down on a Colorado highway and getting the dreaded "red tag" from the CSP. I see quite a few of these tags on junkyard inmates.
