Suzuki X-90 Reviews from North America

It didn't come with A/C, and I had the dealer put it on. It blew shortly after purchase. They had charged it to an incorrect level and put the wrong belt on, they later told me.

I consistently got over 30 mpg on this car. It is one of those, love it or hate it. My husband HATED it. The seats are not really made for "big" people (read old and fat like us).

I used it as my daily commuter, living in the country on acreage and driving to the city, the 4 wd often came in handy. Being only 1 1/2 hours from the Pacific ocean, it was great to take the t-tops off and head to the beach where you can drive on the sand and have some fun.

Plenty of room for overnight/weekend luggage for two. My dogs loved the t-tops.

My husband is balding so he would have his t-top on to protect his head from sun-burning, I would have mine off. He would have the A/C on for his asthma. The 6 CD dish changer under the passenger seat was a bit inconvenient, but appreciated on a long trip.

Not something you want to drive across the country in for sure. But what else out there gets great mileage, never lets you down reliability wise... that you can EASILY park in the city.

Nothing I've had since compares (my husband was happy to see it go). We just agree to disagree on this one car!

Nothing has gone wrong.

OK, call me crazy and laugh at me, but this is the best car EVER. (Well, maybe just for me). It admittedly isn't a race car, but that's its only shortcoming. It's perfectly comfortable doing 75-85 on the freeway, and if you get the manual transmission, you can get the hang of speed shifting it, so it keeps up with most cars from a stoplight. (Don't get an automatic). I'm convinced that this little SUV came out a decade before its time. With Smart cars, Mini Coopers and other small cars gaining popularity these days, this little car makes sense -- and at a fraction of the cost of a new car.

Here's what I like so much about it:

Uses regular gas.

Gets between 30-35 mpg.

Easy to drive, very comfortable, lots of headroom.

I even like the funky "retro-80s" interior.

Great heater and A/C.

Everyone thinks it's a new model of car.

The T-tops are awesome! It's a convertible SUV.

Extremely dependable.

Easily serviced.

Parts are cheeeeep and easy to get.

Easy to squeeze into tight parking places.

It's so danged cute.

People love it and ask me about it all the time.

Leaves a small "carbon footprint".

Easy to trick out if you want to do that.

Totally affordable fun.

Plenty of room in the trunk and behind the seat.

Rides high and has big windows all around, so the visibility is great.

Great Alpine stereo.

Practical for a single person or a couple with no kids.
