American Suzuki Files Bankruptcy

In a long predicted move, American Suzuki filed chapter 11 bankruptcy today in California. Suzuki announced via press release that they intend to stop selling automobiles in the the US.

Suzuki will continue to sell motorcycles and ATVs in the US.

 

WTF. I have a pristine Suzuki Swift ready to put collector plates on. What will I do now?

 

Chevrolet Volt.

 

Oh, dude, thats just plain mean. :wedgie: ound:

 

I was not aware they still sold cars.

 

I cared up untill I was that it was just their cars.

 

Look at this way if Suzuki shuts down the auto division, the company will be able to focus on motorcycles for US market.

 

No one took them seriously as their cars were just rebaged cheaper versions of existing cars.

 

Hope you're right but I'm worried the idiots who buried the car division will end up doing the same to Motorcycle division....

 

That's too bad, I kinda like this one,

From what I've read Suzuki will focus on motorcycles & atv's for the US market. In most cases companies that produce cars & bikes are in a sense separate companies. Same goes for having operations in different countries. if one fails it won't drag the whole company down. US News & World Report article "American Suzuki Files for Bankruptcy"

 

All Suzuki cars come standard with rear defrost so your hands don't get cold when you are pushing that piece of $hit.

Hey Rollin. Don't hold back. It is not healthy. Tell us what you really think of these cars! LMFAO.

If I was drinking beer when I read this, I am sure it would have shot all over the screen through my nose.

 

Do you believe that their motorcycle division is doing that well as it is? My local Honda dealer also is a Suzuki dealer and he says that they're not doing well.

 

Remember American Suzuki is just the importer of Suzuki's in the USA; so this just means they'll stop importing Suzuki cars, not that they will stop being made.

It also means, that they will continue to import some motorcycles and ATV's (they have never brought all their models here anyway).

American Suzuki has nothing to do either way with the design/construction of their cars or motorcycles.
