You don't want to associate that with Isuzu's not so great venture into the cute-ute segment.

I'm sorry, but keep the Scion name off that thing. That is one ugly car, no matter how they dress it up. It doesn't look bold like an xB, and a modded xA just... would own it in terms of everything. And the tC's? All the tC's would just blow their engines and commit seppuku if they shared a badge with that thing.

If people like it, great, to each his own, but I really don't see that thing lasting in America. Mandy, the soccer mom, with the cell phone, driving Britney style with the baby in her lap... she'll kill you.

At least if someone ever ____ed you off and were driving one of those, you could keep your car safe and just chase it on foot for a few blocks, kicking it, until it gained enough speed for them to drive away.

Sorry guys, I forgot all about Isuzu. They're still in business?

I don't think I've even seen one of those on the road around here. Where would you put your gun rack?

Car's are sold as whole packages. This car offers VW Bug performance and stellar gas mileage. I'd buy one, for less then 4 grand, otherwise... I spend 2 hours a day in my car on a long commute and if I can't have fun I won't drive it regardless of MPG.

In Rome, the xA would be a midsize, and the tC would just be big. I saw a car there that was so small (How small was it?) It was so small, there was a dalmation sitting shotgun, with his/her head on the dash(licking the glass) and tail pressed against the rear glass. I saw another parked in a line of Vespa-type scooters, it stuck out about a foot from the front of the bikes...it was backed in.

And Holy Carp,,,I can't believe Crimson02 found an Amigo that looks that good.....In case you don't remember or blocked them from memory, most of the Amigo's were like a baby food or baby poop color. even the blue made you want to puke.

I got a pic of the one in the row of scooters. I'll to look for it, then figure out a way to post it w/o my computer. I've had to borrow and will borrow other ppl's comps for a while.
