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...
Ahead of its time!

1992 Isuzu Impulse RS Turbo 2dr Coupe AWD
The Isuzu Impulse RS TURBO is a great car.
It's a shame that this car was only made in
1991 and 1992, as only 700-800 were
produced for North America.
This is an underrated car that is actually
quite reliable. Its solid construction
encourages driving that will put you at
speeds that FAR exceed any speed limit.
The suspension is as soft as any Acura
Integra's, or … Infiniti G20, and the styling of
the car is unique. In other words, it isn't a
bland car (other than the aforementioned
interior). This car is well ahead of its time,
and the fact that you won't see one at every
stoplight should be a crowd pleaser.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 1992 Isuzu Impulse, so we've included reviews for other years of the Impulse since its last redesign.
