    Axiom...

    I'm a fan of the Axiom almost as much as I am of the VX.... but this got my attention years ago and I jus remembered it... I present to you....
    THE AXIOM XSR

    does anyone know anything about this..... convertable? location, price, condition? iwould love to see (or get ahold of) this beauty...

    and then there is the less attractive (but more practicle) Axiom XSF


    any info on either of these would be awesome!!

    hm ive never seen the XSR before.. looks like they actually made one though from a few photos that turned up in a google search.. id imagine its in LA with the VX prototypes too

    i like it cause its different.. but reminds me of a powerwheel..

    not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing lol

    The XSR and XSF both showed up at the Atlanta Auto Show a few years ago as prototypes. What doesn't show up in those photos is the exceptional paint job on them both. Seems Isuzu used an new paint that actually had crushed glass in it - they had a unique sparkle, similar to metal flake but super reflective. I always thought that the yellow would be a fitting replacement to my Proton Yellow when it was time for new clothing...

    Axiom

    I quit sure that if isuzu hit the street with something like this people who look at isuzu from far away would come closer
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Hope I win the lotto before Barrett Jackson next year. With Isuzu leaving U.S., wonder if all these isuzu one off's won't be on the action block.
    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    Isuzu has had quite a number of practicle and good looking auto's that I know of and I'm sure they woulda been huge had they released them. Of course we have these 2.. The VX4, VX-02 and the 4200R come to mind... He Axiom pickup...
    I don't see why many proto's never make it passed that stage...
    That goes for all companies...
    I always wanted a 2001 RamCharger... I think three off them made it out of the factory(I've seen 2 and loved them immediately...
    And why do all the good cars only exist overseas? I want an 05 civic type r or a skyline r34 gt-r.
    Wow ... Sry... That turned into a rant... RANT OVER haha

    Yes i agree with you,but if isuzu did had few of those prototipes into production,based on their current situation, that'll deffinetly helped them to remain in the US market longer time IMO
