    After six years with my Verona, I am buying a new car, and it is time for a Verona recap. I liked the car when I bought it and still do. The styling has held up, for me at least, better than its other 2004 competitors. After 62,000 miles, the engine remains silky smooth on acceleration and high speed. Cornering is great for this non-racer, and the leather remains flawless. Fuel ... Read More

    Can you quote any studies or organizations that validate crash testing with the results of real-life accidents? "CRASH TEST RESULTS ARE GOOD PREDICTORS OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OCCUPANTS OF VEHICLES IN ON-THE-ROAD CRASHES" Yes: http://www.iihs.org/news_releases/2004/pr020504.htm Placing a 5’ 8” dummy (IIHS) up near the dash is asking for an “injury.” We all know how the IIHS is subject to “special interests.” So how much further back should a person sit ...

    the verona will have more HP next year. Facts: (yea, I know this pertains to SUVs but try to follow what I am saying here and don't dismiss this as a "verona" forum w/o at least trying to learn a pattern). XL7: First HP ratings on new model.....170. Upgraded to 183, then 185. Engine size stayed the same. Grand Vitara: First engine rating 155, then upgraded to 165 next model year. ... Read More

  • economy and power

    Written by: marvinlee on Jan 27, 2004 11:25:16 AM

    I agree that the Verona offers a poor combination of power and economy. This is an area that Suzuki and GMDAT should resolve in future model years. Does anyone have an idea why economy is not better? The engine has roller tipped rocker arms which usually decrease friction. The streamlining seems quite normal, judged by appearances. The vehicle weight is a bit heavy, but I think not enough to cause the ... Read More

  • Verona power.

    Written by: marvinlee on Jan 18, 2004 9:14:31 PM

    The discussions on power fascinate me. In 1960 I drove my 1959 Nash Metropolitan from Washington State to Chicago. It had all of 52 horsepower. Never had a problem keeping up with traffic. Not much passing though, there were not that many cars on the roads. Time passed and in 1973 I took my 1972 AMC Gremlin to Germany where I used it the next 4 years. The Gremlin was a ... Read More

    Written by: tekrek on Jan 12, 2004 6:49:49 PM

    Guilty as charged! I must confess I bought a 2004 Suzuki Verona knowing full well it had 155 horsepower. Yep, that’s right, knowing fully it had just 155 ponies under the hood. How, you must ask does a person make such a decision? Well, it was easy. When your local Honda dealer offers to sell you a stripped 4 cylinder 5 speed Accord LX at $1000.00 under MSRP of $20500.00 and ... Read More

  • Verona....12V Electrical outlets

    Written by: rasup on Jan 7, 2004 7:03:43 AM

    Some time back I had posted the question on the effect of using devices like a heater or polisher to the 12 V outlet. Also is there any burden of attaching a remote starter on the battery or alternator of Verona?. 500 miles plus on a Verona and going Great!! No cold drafts, cold starts or quirks now. Veronaowner..I apologize for my comment that was meant for Boughtaverona.. How are you ... Read More

    Hey Guys. I just got a deal for a 2004 Suzuki Verona EX Titanium for $3000.00 of list in an end of the year deal. Check with your local dealers for similar savings. This was advertised price reduction. The time is right for Suzuki to break some sales records.

    Sadly, I didn't have a test drive today when I took the XL7 for service. I got too caught up talking to one of the upper sales guys. He said he knew nothing of the upcoming Reno, I had to fill him in. He did tell me that Suzuki did stop the Vitara V6 production this month as it will be discontinued for 05. In the third and fourth quarter of ... Read More

    Written by: chrisducati on Oct 13, 2003 4:47:18 AM

    Each person to his own opinion. I like the looks of both cars. It is the detail items that make the difference for me. There are things about the Sonata I would change too. I dislike the chrome around the rear plate opening ( the Verona has it too.) and the grill work under the front bumper with the fog lights. I like the textures in the Verona interior better than ...

    look better than anything coming from Japan(DUH-because IT'S KOREAN-BUILT-THAT'S WHY-RIGHT GUYS?) of late. My love is for Kia/Hyundai's but I'll be watching these GMDaewoo A&T cars sold here as Suzuki's pretty closely for reliability and performance issues with new American buyers. Remember, Chevy sells a GMDA&T car, too, the Aveo. Oh, what fun it is to watch, huh?
