A time called the early 90s, when Honda still had the ability to make minor miscalculations. You see, back before Honda and rival Toyota were the supreme overlords of automobile sales, they still made the occasional misstep. While this wasn’t a common occurrence, it certainly happened more than once, and was more often than not a result of JDM vehicles not being cushy enough for American tastes. One such misstep is known as the Acura Vigor.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ask your average American what they think of Isuzus, and more often than not you will get a noncommittal “meh.” Pressed, your average Joe will recall some controversy surrounding a certain sport utility and a failed rollover test. Yes, in later, post-Trooper years, Isuzu of America was shamed to the point of making unmemorable badge-engineered GM products for profits. When the tired shell of the once popular automaker finally called it quits in the US of A, there was no remorse, nor was there fanfare. The tired branch of the company simply left the party through the bathroom window rather than return to the punchbowl and the likes of Honda and Toyota.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Before Subaru introduced the B9 Tribeca, with its 7-passenger capacity and “flying vagina” style grille, the idea of a Subaru SUV was akin to that of a coal-powered hovercraft. That’s why, in 1994, Subaru conceived the idea of the all-wheel-drive Outback wagon to compete with the increasingly popular 4x4s of the day. The idea was an enormous success, leading to a huge boost in Subaru popularity and production of similar all-wheel-drive station wagons by competing brands.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Consider the Volkswagen Cabriolet. Based on the proven platform that was used by the Golf, Jetta and Rabbit, the Cabbie can be likened to a four-seater Miata. Though it lacks the Mazda’s raw, racecar-like driving feel, its ability to carry more than one friend more than makes up for it. Combine that with the excellent gas mileage, sporty (but not GTI level) suspension, and surprising practicality that comes with owning one, and you end up with a cult classic, which these vehicles are slowly but steadily becoming.]]></description>
