No, but if if he did I'd never leave his garage.

Scott - Not sure if you were being serious or not, but we've been considering something along these lines. I could probably find tons of them a lot closer to home, but if we could help each other out, you never know....

Shoot me over an email if you were serious...

My wife drives a 94 Mazda MX-6. She wants something newer and bigger with four doors though.

I'm looking to add a cheap truck or other vehicle for weekend hauling and camping.

Besides my SVX we have a '97 Outback station wagon.
We also have a Radio Flyer wagon, a Huffy tricycle, and an M-drive starship.

Paddles - Do you know if the Isuzu Piazza etc. is the Isuzu Impulse in the USA? I always liked the car's design, & with the Lotus suspension & turbo , it was on my short list of play toys, before & found true Niverna, of course.

Isuzu Experience

Bought a Lotus suspension Impulse in 1986. It's brake rotors warped and the electric window lift broke. Hmmm...maybe we have some consistent designer miscalculations here.

Other rides:

'94 L
'00 Toyota Tacoma TRD - Supercharged - of course!
'00 Kaw KLR650 - falls over on me at stop signs.
'00 Panda 50 - for that mini-trail lover in all of us!

Yes, they are one and the same. Mine is an Irmscher version which was a JDM model only. Irmscher is a German Tuning company linked with GM and Isuzu had them 'tune' their JDM models to increase sales (before the link up with Lotus), so my car has standard Recaro seats, aero parts and 'German Tuned' suspension, etc.

For those who don't know what an Isuzu 117 Coupe looks like, here is a link:

http://homepage1.nifty.com/marumasa/car/top.htm

Interestingly, because of the complex body design, panels on the early models from 1968 to 1971 were handmade and each car was hand assembled (kind of like the SVX!) at the rate of only 50 per month.

Did I mention that we also have the Brooklyn version of the Pizza.
The engine in this version is highly spiced up, but the handling is rather cheesey.
