    Default Japanese Kei cars

    The US NHSTA 25 year rule keeps moving, and now it is reaching the point where you can get some of the good Japanese kei cars. I wouldn't mind getting a Suzuki Cappucino, and one person here in Atlanta already has a Honda Beat. Another popular one is the Mazda Autozam AZ-1. Anyone else like these?

    While not a kei car, the Nissan Figaro can now be imported as well.

    This Honda Beat was at C&O this past weekend. There was a Nissan Figaro there also, but I didn't get a shot of it.

    Nope, it's half the size, with a really small motor, and lots of performance.

    Lol. My point was I see design queues that remind me of the Del Sol, s2000, Civic, nsx

    It's a 1991 car, what do you expect? Honda used their designs across multiple cars.
