Hey Paul,
How come you are back in Japan? Thought you were back in Middle Earth for good. Were Isuzu thinking of checkers or chess when they named your car "Isuzu Piazza Nero"? Joe

The original Piazza logo was 4 stylised black and white squares. Piazza is Italian for square and Nero is Italian for black. Isuzu were keeping to the Italian theme for the Piazza, which was one of Giugiaro's favourite designs.
