according to my research...its not possible to buy a car uglier than one of those

[xkon]

it was back before they renamed the sunbird, i thought asuna was a GM brand as well, and I recall Isuzu teaming up with GM or being a brand of GM, eg the Hombre S-10?

you have obvoiusly never seen a studabaker lark

Isuzu made the impulse for a number of years. Peppy little cars... handling by Lotus... The Asuna Sunfire is just a rebadged Impulse. GM did that when Isuzu was getting out of the car business. Isuzu only makes trucks now.

The AWD turbo versions are rare.

The Geo Storm is the same car with a different body.

Oh man, you're lucky I ended up buying a DA9 instead of a turbo Impulse, because I would've flamed you bad for that comment

the asuna sunfire, and the pontiac sunfire have NOTHING in common at all (other than the name)

im pretty sure GM had some influence in the building of those cars (impulse, storm, *asuna sunfire) but the pontiac sunfire and pontiac sunbird were build on completely different platforms

Indeed, only about 600-700 made for 2 years.

Apparently no one has seen the crazy racing stylez of the Geo Metro GTi .... Convertable LMAO!!!!


or stock ... BLING BLING


These bad boys can run up to as much as $2,000!!!
"Metros carried a 1.0-liter, 3-cylinder engine that developed a modest 55 horsepower."

It's so wierd this thread came up because I'm looking for an impulse or asuna to replace my current vehicle.

Finding an impulse RS would be nice they aren't as rare on the east coast as in winnipeg.

But I'd be happy with a regular impulse or asuna sunfire. It's wierd I've started looking for one like beginning of this week and then this thread came up.

Basicly the Geo Storm is the replacement for the impulse/sunfire but the fornt end on the impulse/sunfire is soooo much nicer. Plus the impulse sunfire came in a "wagon back" and thats what I'm looking for but they are pretty hard to find. I have a bunch of links if you want them but you could also just do a search
