Buick-Opel 1976-1979

The Kadett C reached the United States as the Buick–Opel. This was an Isuzu Gemini; an updated version of this car was marketed in the USA as the Isuzu I-Mark in the early 1980s.

The North American market version was originally sold as the "Opel by Isuzu" and then the Buick Opel, but for the 1981 model year it metamorphosed into the "Isuzu I-Mark". The diesel engine was available in the I-mark, but the standard engine was a 78 hp (58 kW) (SAE net) version of the 1.8 litre G181Z engine. The diesel gradually lost sales after USA's love affair with the diesel car came to an end in the early eighties, and eventually it was only available in a single coupé version.
