We recently featured a rare Isuzu I-Mark hatchback, complete with turbocharged four cylinder engine and Lotus-tuned suspension. If you liked the idea, but wanted four doors, today’s feature is all you.
This car gives you i-Mark RS Turbo performance in a small sedan package. Versus the hatchback, that’s less practical for lovers of cargo space, but better for folks with child seats. The rear seats even fold down, which is pretty cool for an 80s car.
The BIN price seems modest enough at $3,500 for low miles, great condition and seemingly few needs. If the reserve is lower, someone might even get more of a steal! Pending in-person inspection, we’re extremely bullish and recommend a strong buy on this one. If only we had more space at Oddimotive HQ…

This styling has held up well – it’s a good thing Isuzu asked for Italian design help back in the day.
Turbo decal on glass is a perfect touch for this 80s beast. Body kit is fairly subtle and the alloys look nice in this application.
Front end is mildly aggressive, but could pass for a sleeper in today’s market.
How about some badges? Four, yes, four badges adorn the rear of this car. From left to right: 1.5T, i-Mark, Handling by Lotus and LS.
Here’s a closeup of that beloved Lotus badge.
Interior is pretty sporty for a car with humble roots. Note the seat cloth pattern, classic accordion shifter boot and even the graphic equalizer! The steering wheel looks pretty good for thumb hanging, as well.
The headliner may need a bit of attention, and it looks like this is a pop-up-only sunroof. That’s good for your head room – we’re not sure about Max Headroom.
This trunk should hold your cooler full of Boone’s Farm and even features fold-down seats to allow rear-seat passengers to access alcohol on the move!
Engine is there – not too clean and not too dirty.
We couldn’t not include this image. Don’t you really want to buy this now, hoping for an encounter with a chick wearing camo, baby blue and a trucker hat?
