Purchased in September from a private seller. Has about 138k miles on the odometer. Everything works electrically and mechanically. Needs a little TLC on the front seats, but other than that, in pretty good mechanical shape. New tires, new shocks, new AC, new radiator, and engine runs smooth. Installed new Cat Converter (Cali certified).

Modifications
Drivetrain
There's the stock 2.5L V6; no mods whatsoever. Transmission is the OEM 3sp auto trans with the pushbutton OverDrive feature. Standarda Suzuki 4WD system; 2H, 4H Hi and 4H Low.
Interior
Nothing done to the interior. Seats are leather all around, rear seats in great shape, but driver seat and front passenger have seams that have unstitched, so that needs to be address. Nothing more to do!
Exterior
Original color was Black with Black body trim all around. I changed its look by removing the body plastic all around and painting the whole vehicle with a product called Raptor, a urethane bed liner for truck beds. No worries about scratched paint for me! Painted the body plastic with same material, except in a color called Safety Orange. Replaced the power mirrors and the headlights (cracked housings and badly scratched lenses). Bought the items from 1AAuto.com; nice quality and decent prices!. Came out very decent! see the photos
Audio
Stock unit with stock speakers. Has the 6-ch CD changer that came with the Limited trim level. It all works too. No plans for upgrade here. Just don't see the point of spending $$$ on a stereo I can barely hear above the road noise!
Suspension
New shocks all around!
Wheel and Tire
Stock gold-colored wheels that came with the GV; tires are OEM size, 235/60x16, brand new Michelin Defenders
