Isuzu Scirocco

[haygood at myway.com (Brian Haygood)]

I helped a friend pick out an impulse in the late late '80's.  They drive pretty well, but not nearly as well as a 16v or anything.  Seemed a lot heavier.  That said, its a nice looking car - prolly nicer looking than the Scirocco, but that's not all the Scirocco has to offer.  Also, Scirocco drivers don't have such crappy attitudes!
