As I look out my window she still sets there waiting for a drive. She is 28 years old and has nearly 250,000 miles --- hardly broken in good. She has been all over the US, Canada, and parts of Mexico. Best car I ever owned. --- Edward Shore I bought my “Suzi” in 1981 brand new.

I love visiting this site and checking out the different vintage Japanese cars. I've always been interested in the Isuzu Diesel cars and light trucks (P-up). I've never understood why they didn't sell very well. I've seen a few early 80s examples of I-marks and P-ups, but unfortunately nothing later than 1985. Why could that be? Anyway, I prefer the styling of the I-mark sedan than that of the fastback like what's in the picture. Awesome website! I love visiting this site and checking out the different vintage Japanese cars.

My first car was an I-Mark I got in 94 in Tucson. Looks a lot like my old car but I think my sister gave that car to charity still ran great and got about 35-40 mpgs awesome car.

It saw a lot of miles between Alabama and Ohio at least three times a year; on one trip my mother got 51 mpg! And automakers today are bragging about mileage over 30 mpg! I'd buy one of these right now if I could find one. My parents purchased one of these at a dealer auction in 1985.
