1989 Isuzu I-Mark RS review from North America
"Very high performance, low profile"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been flawless since I bought it, with only basic maintenance (oil changes, lube's, new tires) it has never had a single problem!
The left indicator relay also isn't working very well, but again that is a minor problem.
I do have to say that the plastic covers on the seat belt clips aren't very good, they break all the time. I just got some from an Acura and put them on the belt, and it looks great.
General comments?
This car has a Lotus suspension & drivetrain. It takes corners better than any car I have ever driven. It has excellent take off and more than enough power. I love the shifting in it too, it reminds me of a Honda when I shift, that clean easy shift feeling.
