I've never seen it! That's pretty cool. Too bad geo was a fake brand and suzuki doesn't make the swift in the us anymore,

I've never seen it. And I'm going to paste stuff here, because the eBay link is going to die eventually...

A rare and interesting item, this is a brochure for the 1991 Geo, the Mose Fuel Efficient-Line of Vehicles in America. Inside this brochure one will find pictures and information on the Geo Metro XFi, Geo Storm, Geo Tracker, and Geo Prizm and their specifiations and features, and their fuel efficiency.

Don't forget, the Geo lineup wasn't only rebadged Suzukis. The brand was a grab bag of vehicles from a bunch of manufacturers: the Prizm was a rebadged Toyota Corolla and the Storm was a rebadged Izusu.

I know that, but I wanted to highlight the fact that geo's dissolution my have contributed to the death of sales of cars like the swift (which are still popular in japan even if they're a little on the big side).

It seems that every one of the GOOD cars that came, saw, and died here are all the rage in Japan. LET'S ALL TAKE A TRIP TO JAPAN!!!
