This is my 2007 Suzuki Reno. It has a bright-red exterior that glows pretty vibrantly on sunny days. Even at night, using my headlights might not be necessary. Hue. Anyways, it's a great car, really. It's great to drive, pretty peppy for it's stock performance specs (127hp/131lb/ft), and above all, the lines on it are sporty and sleek, and it gets more looks than I thought it would.
We bought the car new in 2007 right off the dealership lot. Since then it's had three "owners." First, my brother, who's the one who actually bought the car. Second, my sister, and then the third is me. I still share the car with my sister while she looks for something else to purchase, and pays this car off simultaneously.
The car, though, has multiple cosmetic issues, as well as a few mechanical ones. They're nothing major, mind you, but they're definitely something that should be repaired, which I intend to do as soon as I can.
So now that you know the basics, let's move to the visuals.
----------------------
As you can see by the image(s), the paint is very vibrant, as I mentioned earlier.
Here's where the cosmetic flaws come into view. Notice the bumper has two gaps in it from where my brother attempted to install fog lights on the car. Didn't work out too well, so now my car has diastema. Also the grille was painted black a few years ago, and I repainted it black to hide all of the paint chips that started appearing. I plan on buying a replacement OEM grille for it soon.
Oxidization has started to appear on the headlight housings.
This gives you a good idea of what the grille is like, and all of those paint chips on the hood.
Fading wheel covers that will one day be replaced with a nice set of rims I found.
A better look at the poor bumper.
The monstrous powerhouse of the Reno. A 127hp 2.0 I4.
A poorly-taken shot of the interior.
A little better.
