Trivia
- In the Japanese version of Crash Team Racing, she has brown eyes to avoid confusion, as she bears a resemblance to Tawna. However, she still has blue eyes on her Japanese artwork.
- In the original Crash Team Racing she has the same body structure as Tawna.
- In the Japanese version of Crash Bash, Isabella is referenced in both Crash and Coco's endings. In Coco's ending, Coco makes a hologram of herself as an adult so she can debut as an internet idol. This hologram is almost identical to Isabella in appearance. In Crash's ending, he mistakes said hologram for Tawna and happily leaps out to her. This is a possible reference to Tawna and Isabella closely resembling each other.
- In Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, she speaks with an Italian accent, likely as a reference to the origin of her name.
