The subject has been mentioned before.

A few vehicles in Japan that we can't have in America

Reminds me of my previous TT, even the wheels are good copy. You wonder if they ever miniaturized an IMPALA Lifeboy?

The car I was hoping Suzuki/GM would bring to the US was the Suzuki Cappucino. Would have been a perfect replacement for the Geo Storm

i have seen the odd cappuccino running about in australia, they used to be tiny untill i got my smart, still driving the smart you look down at them lol

the cappuccino had a write up in a local performance mag they upgraded the computer turbo injectors and intercooler all basic mods and it ran 13's on the 1/4 not bad!

we also had the copen untill daihatsu pulled out of the local market, much less room inside than the smart much much less!!!! roof down, and there is no space at all for anything other than a pair of clean socks, it was a nice lil sporty car if you can call it that although it is fwd where as the cappuccino is rwd, and the copen onlu had like 45kw and is miles slower than the smart, but probably easier to modify to go fast, but then there still the fwd thing, i dont like performance fwd cars (i've had my fair share of them)

I like a couple of the Suzuki concept cars. I like the Concept S.

The Splash looks closest to the Smart Fortwo.

Is the X Head a micro pickup?

We get the first 3 in the UK.
Pictures of the cappucino really don't get across how small it is.
The final Suzuki Splash looked nothing like that unfortunately, turned out really boring and normal.

LOVE the "splash's" EYES!

yeah, just Googled the Splash. Looks like what the US calls the Aveo or the rest of the world calls a Daewoo Kalos
