In Russia, Tetris plays you. Brings new meaning to Car Tetris.

It was the 80s. It was all about squiggles and triangles and patterns and colorful lines for some utterly incomprehensible reason.

Back when you could make a cheap little shitbox, advertise it as a cheap little shitbox, and sell it as a cheap little shitbox to people who knew they were buying a cheap little shitbox for cheap little shitbox money.

That was the point of the brand, they were all captive imports sold under an American name.

Weird, I don’t know how I missed you at the dealership, I just got back from that same year. This was my girlfriend’s Geo Storm that she actually did purchase in Towson in 1990. It wasn’t a fast car, but it was great-looking and a lot of fun. I miss it.

All of the Geos were something else. Tracker -> Suzuki Samurai. Prism -> Toyota Corolla. Storm -> Isusu Impulse. Metro ->Suzuki Swift

The Prizm was a captive Toyota Corolla AE-90 and in GSi trim it had a red top 4A-GE. I owned a English Corolla hatchback in the caribbeans (Toyota Sprinter Cielo) and it was a hilariously good time with 5 speed and rear diff.

Now it’s a Huracan’t.

Back when Mitsubishi was the good guy...

Better times indeed.

We don’t hate Mitsubishi. We just choose to remember the better times.

I appreciate your unbridled enthusiasm as much as anyone here. Unlike the nations those vehicles will be used in we have very fast moving freeways and a lot more open pavement besides. Maybe that car would make sense for some underpopulated sea side town with 20 mph speed limits.

Yesssss. Moar tailfins

As a Honda Fit owner, NAH.

If I could buy that Daihatsu sedan in the US, I’d trade my Fit in on it TODAY.
