Exterior
The exterior paint of this Suzuki Jimny Sierra is in great condition, the dark blue paint manages to reflect light from its body from all directions. As we looked farther around its body, we did not notice any obvious rusts, scratches or dings – and areas of concern such as its side mirrors, door handles and rear lights are tightly secured to its body and are not loose. All body panels lines up straight and perfect. The aftermarket wheels are overall in great condition, pairing with set of fairly new BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires with decent amount of tread left. The surrounding wheel arch trims are in great condition showing no signs of cracking. The headlights, OEM yellow fog lights, side indicators and rear lights remain crystal clear and all illuminate as they should. The roof rack is also in great condition without sign of any paint or rust issue.

They are very firm and supportive. The door cards have been redone and covered with cross aluminium chequered plates.

Engine and Running Gear
This Suzuki Jimny Sierra is very basic, utilitarian at the same time very fun to drive. The 1.3-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine fired up with no hesitation. As the engine was warming up, we did not notice any excessive smoke or strange smells coming from the exhaust and engine respectively. During our test drive, it is in true JDM sub-compact SUV, body-on-frame driving dynamics. Although it is relatively tall and narrow, we were very confident around the tight corners thanks to its smooth and responsive power steering. The 5-speed manual gearbox is very precise to use with each gear change directly with all its gears without any problems. Air conditioning blows cold, and brakes offer good amount of stopping power to bring the car to a halt. It is slow but not underpowered, easily picks up speed on highway. This Jimny is a cool and retro looking SUV. If you are dreaming for a passionate JDM daily drivable mini-SUV, this 1994 Suzuki Jimny Sierra is now exclusive available at the Car Farm.
