1991 Suzuki Swift GT 2dr Hatchback
Ahh, my old '91 Swift GT.
Easily the most fun car I have ever owned.
It was more of a 4-wheel toy than a car.
It was quick off of the line, looked great and had awesome mileage for its time.
I had the wheels upgraded to 15" alloys with 4 Hercules G3000V P195/50VR-15's.
It stuck like peanut butter to the roof of your mouth.
I also loved the fact that after 1989, automatic was not … available for this car because auto would have ruined the experience.
It was like driving a rally car on the highway because it reacted so quick to control input (probably because it had manual steering).
The 4-wheel disc brakes made it stop on a dime.
My only complaint was that it didn't have A/C standard.
A big small car!

A very good vehicle. Pas de problemes
depuis l'achat. No troubles since
buying (one year) even with 160 000
miles on the counter. 204 000
kilomètres au compteur. Noise from the
alternator belt-bruit provenant de la
courroie d'alternateur.
Surprisingly My Best Car

1990 Suzuki Swift GS 4dr Sedan
It already had over 150,000 miles on it when we got it. We ended up driving it up to about 240,000 miles before we let it go. The first owner said it was still the first tranny, and when we let it go it was still its first tranny. This car has a very reliable engine. I was surprised that I did not spend much on this car. It got very good gas mileage. With its manual tranny it got an … average of about 40 mpg). Plus it has lots of space for someone who is 6'4". I wish they brought it back because I am not enjoying the newer Suzukis. I think they stopped selling it here in '94. They still sell it elsewhere even today.

The Humble suzuki swift is a great
little runabout. Its Very economical to
run. Its also quite fun to drive. It
Handles extreemly well compared to
other Hatches. Some don't like the
cheapish interior but i give it a 9 out
of 10 overall as a great 1st car for
the young buyer.
