Junkyard Find: 1991 Geo Storm GSi

The Storm, a rebadged second-gen Isuzu Impulse sold by GM’s short-lived Geo division, was with us for just the 1990 through 1993 model years and didn’t leave much of an impression. I see the occasional Storm in wrecking yards these days, but it takes a factory-hot-rod GSi version to get me to reach for my camera. We saw this ’90 Storm GSi in a Colorado yard a couple years back, and now I’ve found another in Northern California.

  • Redapple2 CX5. Rented one 2 yr ago. ~2000miles. Issues. 1 Thumbwheel controller not good. 2. Sweeping curve on the interstate passing a car, the automatic braking picked up a car in the lane over. Beeps and slight braking. Not drop anchor mode, but still head scratching. But it looks so dam good. Wonderful still after many years. CX5 all the way!!!

  • Gray My driver is a Brilliant Blue '93 Ranger Sport with the obnoxious green and purple decals still intact. I like the color, but those decals are silly. Everyone at work under 35 begs me to not remove them. Out of the 40-ish cars I've had, I think I've had only 3 non-color cars. A white El Camino, A black 300ZX, and a Black '73 Dodge truck.I love all the color names car companies had in the early '70's.
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X Mazda CX-5 all the way.
  • FreedMike CX-5 for the win, even in base version. 1) Far better looking. 2) Mazda dealers will actually give you a decent deal on the CX-5; Toyota dealers still think it's 2021 and are trying to get over sticker.
