1991 Isuzu Impulse RS Turbo 2dr Coupe AWD
Great power, handling. Fuel economy a
little lower than expected for a
compact car, but still decent.
Excellent snow navigation. Replacement
parts are a little pricey and hard to
find, but available.
Unreal!

1991 Isuzu Impulse RS Turbo 2dr Coupe AWD
This car is amazing. A total
rocketship! I can outrun a Z06 Vette
and a 5.0L Mustang, Qtr mile &
slalom. It has a much bigger turbo
and a front-mount intercooler, mild
porting and a 30angle vavle job, with
1.8L cams and solid lifters, so it's
not stock. Handles like it's on rails
and it's one of 800 sold in the USA,
so it's a collectors item of sorts.
Truly the … ultimate sleeper car of the
earlky nineties...
