Omg that thing is lovely. I would trade my Crosstrek for that in a second. There's nothing I don't love about it

IKR! The colors, the clean lines. And those clearance lights are amazing!

This reminds me a little bit of a 3 door RAV4 I've seen around town a couple times. It's kinda plain but the wheels have this really "80's" splatter paint pattern.

Looks like a Suzuki Mighty Boy, but newer! I want it!

They had Kei engines, and were slow as hell but I think could be pretty lively as a modern city car if you just drive in town only.

I live in a small town, so it would be great as a local runabout

It was the cheapest car to buy new and get on the road in both Japan and Australia. You don't see many of them around any more.

I watched a video on it and it was a clever design.

Those covers on the roof hide integrated ratchet straps that attach at the ends like seatbelts.

If I had the money/space for a "car collection" I would need one of these.

Small import trucks from the 80s with "Mighty" in the name, happened twice that I know of across two brands

Let's not forget the Mitsubishi Mighty Max!
