I think generally such model lasts only one or two cycles and the company discontinues its production. I've always thought the name is weird too. Then it occurred to me. When Toyota said "Tank", perhaps they meant fish tank. That shape does make me think of a fish tank.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting car though, the only FWD ever produced and powered by an Isuzu engine. Made possible by the vast resources of General Motors.

IIRC the price was about $120K for the 1.6L turbo unit. Gotten a lift from someone then, very powerful but the cabin insulation seems not so good. @Toeknee_33 there were 2 different engines, sourced from 2 different company. The 1.6L was from Isuzu while the 1.8L unit was from Kia (after Kia bought over the right to produce Elan under its brand). Talking about that, it also have many names...

Atrecord Supersonic August 4, 2021 Share August 4, 2021 9 hours ago, Carbon82 said: Subaru Justy Wow... Didn't know Justy become like this. I drove a Justy in 1999, for a few months. It was a company car, and the first auto car i drove. It also had a CVT, which I think was still uncommon at that time. The acceleration was slow, but smooth, very unlike other auto cars at that time: other auto cars that my colleague drove, when changing gears upon acceleration, will feel the 'jerk' - if got a glass of water in the dashboard, confirmed will spill. CVT: slow and steady, won't spill one... 🤣 That was also when i learnt i knew nothing about tyres... The company car was driven till the metal at the side of the tyres, already all became visible... I didn't know what it meant, and continued driving... and promptly experience a burst on CTE one Sat night... lucky wasn't going fast on left lane, and managed to stop safely... 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
