      The new one having a 1.4L pumping almost 140hp does look pretty interesting, especially since that version runs at only about 970kg AND comes with a 6-speed manual option. Not many hot hatches still sell manual anymore, particularly outside of EU markets where it's still adequately popular :/
      Sat in a 2008 one before and it was already quite a hot hatch despite the low power, not a Suzuki fan myself but secretly desiring one of these tiny things.

But I do completely agree with you on having cars from outside USA! 😃 There is a general rule in USA that if the car is 25 years or older it doesn't have to meet the same safety or fuel economy standards, so it can get imported.

      Ive stalked cars across States.. just to get a picture. Ive done that numerous times with countless vehicles. Id go back through numerous States if there was something I regularly see and I wanted a shot of. Ive even made the gamble... on NUMEROUS cars, stuff that was an 1-2hrs away. Just to get a pic.
      LOL,
      Some stuff... to THIS DAY... I wanted to steal a 450 SLC hardtop. It was 15yrs ago and it was sitting there in an abandoned lot in decent condition. I took shots of every car there. Easily 30 M-B cars in poor junk condition. Never took the top, cause I couldnt get the damn thing home. I look back now.. at the location, everything there is lone gone (cars, top, property).
      There is nothing crazy sbout crossing country lines to take a shot or do a review!
      Ive stalked cars for MONTHS... just to get a picture. Thats happened too often than I can count. In every situation... its some abandoned looking car. Tucked back somewhere. Where the property and the vehicle can see the road. Due to the fragility of the car, ya have to wait a good few months (past winter) to see what a plan for the car would be by its current owners. By month 5-6.. and tracking it everyday, hasnt moved, hasnt done anything, that is when I make a move. I just find a way to get into position at the least possible / suspicious time of the day / month / week / yr. I get the shot and I take off.
      THE NEXT DAY.... its gone. Doesnt matter what condition, what type of vehicle, age, mileage, complete... its gone.
      I am VERY proud to have gotten the shot.
      Across a Country, Id do it. As long as its something decent and Ive watched it for a while.
      Most times...
      Its about being patient. Today I caught a shot of something I really wanted... and I was in the right spot at the right time. I got the pic.
      I dont break laws...
      I dont get out of my vehicle....
      I stay off owner property.
      Ive brought a Telephoto Lens.. to get a shot.
      But I always get the shot.

    Fun fact: 10:05 - those halogen template black boxes are a fun thing. The reasoning for them being there is that they serve as a light beam adjustment whenever your going to a country with left-hand side traffic so you won't blind drivers there. What you have to do is:
    1. Cut out those boxes from the manual
    2. Stick them to the headlight as described in the manual (you hae to put them in specific places)
    3. Voila - now your headlights won't blind anyone in left hand side traffic
    I have the 2018 Swift with halogens and that I assure you, that's what the manual in Poland says
    EDIT: A&B is a set for right headlight and C&D is for the left one.

    • @alexeveryman5080

    Moved from the US to Germany me and my girlfriend just picked up a 2016 Suzuki Swift for 9k EU used. I love this car, it's got the driving feel of a Honda Civic with a much more luxurious feel. The car is really sporty with a chain drive 4 cylinder engine. It's a little on the light side when it comes to power but the car is so light overall that it's a joy to drive. I take it on the autobahn going over 100mph pretty regularly. Even at those speeds it drives smooth but the high roof does create a lot of wind noise. Anything under 80mph is very quiet and you can reach up to 145mph safely although gripping the steering wheel slightly. I love this car, if it's in Mexico I might be interested in taking it to the US. There really isn't anything in the US that offers the same value and fun.

    • @siddharth.gautam
      @siddharth.gautam 5 лет назад +3

      @Vipul Choudhary But that'll not be just 'a Swift'.
      Companies don't expect to sell them in mass. Like VW alloted only 99 units of GTI to India, similarly Octavia RS was also sold in limited numbers.
      Though, GTI was a tough sell for VW owing to its exorbitant price (launched at 33L Ex, reduced to 23L and the last units were sold for 19.99L Ex), but still all were sold. Because there are enthusiasts out there.
      However, Swift Sport could perform better because it is not as high end as GTI and there's a decent number of enthusiasts who could shell out 15L for a little, fast and cheap to maintain hatchback. Also, notwithstanding the current slowdown in automobile industry, Maruti Suzuki has nothing to lose even if the Swift Sport fails in India. They must give it a try. Even modest success will encourage other makers to come out with similar offerings.

    I leased a 2008 Suzuki SX4 JLX AWD for 4 years. It was a great little car. No reliability issues. The steering wheel and instrumentation were very similar to this Swift. My only complaints were that it sat too low for the snowy dirt roads I frequently took it on and the rear seats didn't fold level with the cargo floor. I was going to buy out the lease but when Suzuki announced they were pulling out of Canada, prices dropped like a stone. The residual on the lease was way over market. I just gave it back to Suzuki Canada and let them eat the depreciation. I replaced it with a lightly-used 2007 Subaru Forester, which addressed the ground clearance issues and offered fold-flat rear seats.
