Mr.Markos 15-06-2007 19:26

isuzu? :D

PerL 15-06-2007 19:52

It is (or was?) a Chevrolet Cavalier 2-door Coupe, early 90s vintage. The curved bottom of the rear side window line gives it away.



Tjaap 15-06-2007 19:56

the chevy world car? as in Ascona... good call Per

maniacmark 15-06-2007 21:22

Yes, also the doorhandles en locks are identical

berendd 16-06-2007 09:17

is says isuzu on the back, but since isuzu is GM too it sure is the isuzu clone of the ascona/cavalier and some Holden..

Tjaap 16-06-2007 09:31

Yeah, it's the same chassis, the GM J-car. It included the Opel Ascona, Chervolet Cavalier, Cadillac Cimarron, Isuzu Aska and quite a few more versions as well, such as Buick, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Holden, Vauxhall and probably a couple of others I cant think of.

Marco 17-06-2007 23:03

My first thought was a Honda accord, but after some research that wasn't it, also no Nissan.

Searched for the Isuzu aska on Google, but didn't find any model that looks a little like this

That is because the Isuzu Aska wasnt made in the Coupe bodystyle. As far as I can remember, only a few of the US models were made in this body style, the Chevy and maybe the Olds and Pontiac. This American Coupe bodystyle was introduced after the Ascona was taken out of production.

This Isuzu is the same car, but it was only made as a 4-door. You can see that the design of the doors is identical to an Ascona C.




It's funny that you mention the Honda Accord though, as the last version of the Isuzu Aska was a rebadged version of the Honda Accord. There was also a Subaru Legacy rebadged as an Isuzu Aska, and this was the Aska generation between the GM J-car and the Accord version.

That's a whole lot of uninteresting information you're giving there :thumbup:

PerL 18-06-2007 19:23

Lol :D

Tjaap 18-06-2007 19:44

is it me, or is that Isuzu quite a good looking car?

Tjaap 18-06-2007 20:38




i have another one, it probably says so on the showboard in th back.. but i can't read it?

Viperwin 18-06-2007 21:48




I think it is a very, very good interpretation of BMW's E92, the new 3-series Coupé:



Rear window, door handles, mirrors, front wheel position, "BMW known for" carbon roof, the side (smoothed out) body line, the A-pillar/bonnet connection, hidden Z3 headlights...

The pillar is on the other side of the velvet ropes, but I see some kidneys and I would not be surprised if it was a BMW line-up... This Honda is getting kinda close though...

Me too. Not hard to find out where you have your wisdom from. :tongue: I did not realise the 3-series Coupé and 6-series were so much proportioned alike! Your call to pull back the curtain. :cool:

Viperwin 18-06-2007 22:17

Another car on the same base, by the way:



Tjaap 18-06-2007 22:21

the coupe of that is my favourite custom of all times... oh btw. mine's a Fisker, designed by an Aston designer

Well... Better than an Ascona, that's for sure! :tongue:
