@Fastestlaps could you update the data please. I used to own one of these 1990 Suzuki Swift GTi hatchbacks, in 1995 I traded it in for the Neon ACR Coupe. The Swift was light, and quick for the time period, but rather fragile. I don't think it would have been very safe in a crash.

Manufacturer curb weight is 1768 pounds. Weight as tested by Car and Driver with air conditioning was 1852 pounds. I used to own the Car and Driver test, Road and Track test, and Motortrend test issues. I lost the magazines when I moved from Washington D.C. to California. I purchased a black Suzuki Swift GTi in the spring of 1990 and traded it in on a 1995 red Neon ACR in the spring of 1995. I modified my Swift GTi with header, exhaust, rear sway bar, strut tower braces, Open element air filter, MSD ignition, Urethane bushings and H rated 185/60 R14 tires. It was quicker and faster than stock. I took it to top speed many times. The car was rather fragile, and I am glad that I never got into an accident with it. The Neon ACR was much bigger heavier, more durable, and safer.

Bs I did 125 mp and still want to go on m62! My was a F-reg

This car was introduced to the U.S. market for the 1989 model year. It was tested by several magazines, but I don't have the issues. MotorWeek also tested it with 0-60 mph in 9.0 seconds and 1/4 mile in 16.7 seconds at 83 mph. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8weT2Y5jjuU

How much do you think the shipping charge would be to send to Charleston SC in USA?

What side is the steering wheel on since I live in USA?

Go on YouTube and watch videos of the modified versions of this car beat Lamborghinis and Ferraris in races.

True...and I'd have the jaguar, a little bit more appeal there. And by a little I mean a lot...

Yes, but its reign would be short lived. For you see, the Jaguar XK 120 came out in 1948...

lol

Hey in 1947 this would be king of the road in speed, really fast!

I think we have very different definitions of the word "fast."

For example: I don't think a car that is slower to 60 and slower in the 1/4 mile than a Camry is fast.

beacause i have one, and its a really fast car, and it deserves more respect

Why on earth do you care?
It's a little rattle trap from the 90's with less power than a Prius.
Just my opinion of course.

there are a lots of specs wrong in this page. the engine produces 117ps at 7500rpm, it weights 800kgs empty, and 830kgs with all the fluids, it does 0-100 kph in 7.2-7.5 secs, and 15.8s the 1/4 mille

I almost hate to admit it, but I bought one of these early in 1990. It was quick, but had too much wheel spin off the line or coming out of slow corners. Also the first gear was too short and second gear too long for decent acceleration, the revs dropped too much on the shift into second gear. The power band was very narrow, 5000 rpm to redline at 6800 rpm. On occasion I needed to rev the engine to the 7500 rpm rev limiter in first gear in order to avoid falling out of the power band when shifting into second. The engine tolerated the overrev, but the transmission needed a rebuild at 100k miles. I traded this car for a Neon ACR, which was infinitely better in all ways.

this car is one of the fastest cars, it's made with a lot of bike technology....revs like a beast...

The car appears slower on paper due to a second gear change at 61mph. 0-60 8.7
The 0-100 on this is too quick though, no way it does it in 27.0

hey guyz..iz der any1 who cn help me,i hav a swift G13B gti engine dats being o`hauling by me..planned 2 install a turbo n i was wndring wat type ov turbo shud i use n parts dat ned 2 b upgrade 2 d engine..so,help me out guyz..btw m from brunei n my email hemp_nation@hotmail.com...pls gve me ur cmment..email me o add me..thankzz

Hey what if he actually is a KinderGartner?

caltrum do you realize that such comments run down the list on the main page pretty fast and are lost?
We have 1910 car datasheets do you belive we look twice a day through all 1910 car pages to see the latest comments? In the Forum is a pool for wrong data sheets ... there it would take only one daily view to see were something is wrong but no every poster makes comments at the car page and five minutes later it is of the list of the latest comments..this way we miss many usefull extra information..

and stop your Kindergarten level or I bann you

What's wrong with you? You were no way near as mad yesterday.

**** you too

i realize that already exists a page with this car, swift gti 90'ties and that is wrong to have 2 cars equal, so i say to someone delete or remove this car page, please. thanks.
