Easy to transport, too. (Please send help)

A light turboed awd?
Thats pretty cool

Soooo JDM...
I want one !!!!
Very cool. Might be good for autocrossing, although I think that there's a rule on the ratio of height to width, same one that keeps the base Fiesta out.
That's a "buy it now and figure out if you want it later" kind of price.

That's what I'm afraid of. It is also much closer to me than I thought it was.
I'd love that car except I'm too pragmatic to drive a RHD car. I'm willing to do a lot of 'excuses' for doing a lot of automotive silliness, but not driving on the wrong side of the car.
It's not a big deal unless your life revolves around drive-throughs, especially in a small car. I've driven my RHD Mini across the country (well, a good proportion of it) and it's simply not a factor.
I'm really glad I don't have any cash right now, or I'd be dragging a trailer up to Wisconsin this week! An Alto Works has been on my bucket list for a long time and now that we've reached the 25 year mark for the better ones, I've been watching the JDM auction houses and dreaming about when I have some extra money.
Went to the All British Car Day here in Austin last weekend and in the parking lot, there were two Suzuki Cappuccinos.
My son and I were checking them out.

Apparently you've never, ever played any of the Gran Turismo games?

Cappuccinos are fun. I've had the chance to drive one and they're just full of character.
In reply to Duke :
Are those the ones with Dirty Harry in them??
Pulled the engine 3 months ago and now it's for sale because the project is stalled?
That's... um. Either that is VWVortex "the ashtray's full, the gas tank's empty... eh, better part it out" level of automotive ADD, or maybe I just sort of expect any project to marinate for two or three years before I get around to it.
With the disclaimer that it's completely beyond my mechanical abilities, I can't help but think how awesome that would be with a Busa swap.
In reply to Knurled. :
I did a bunch of looking into this car. Apparently, it was running and for sale @$6700 less than a year ago. Not sure if there was another owner between that seller and this one, or not .
Your are going to need a Japanese shop manual, translated to Engrish. A friend in Japan that works in the automotive scene. A lot of lessons in Japanese. These are all very easy to obtain.
it's posted in Madison Wisconsin with an Illinois plate and a map location of oak lawn il?
SOOOO Glad I don't drive stick ...
In reply to Brian :
Pfft Stick is easy to learn.
I just want to officially say that each and every one of you has let me down.
I hate you all...
In reply to Cooter :
You seriously expect us to try to talk you out of something like this?! Ask your wife/girlfriend/mom if you want that, we're going to talk you into it and three parts cars to go with it.
I didn't ask anyone to talk me out of it, but I really thought someone here would have jumped on this grenade so I wouldn't have to.
If you could see my stable of vehicles and what I wear, you would realize I never ask anyone what I should like or get.
If it was any closer I'd be game. As it stands I'm trying talk the wife into a romantic hotel stay in St Louis for our anniversary this weekend. I thought I was good till I mentioned the 9hr drive.
In reply to Cooter :
Ohh, that makes more sense. If I wasn't already at 5 sketchy cars with 2 more in the works, well, I would've more seriously considered it. ;-)
If someone were to but this and have second thoughts around spring time I could rehome it. I mean its not like it will take up much room.
I'm at my quota for buying and selling cars this year.
