    A very small, very light Japanese RWD sedan.

    and an idea of what it might look like in some kind of race trim:

    and a neat two-tone paintjob:

    Like I said earlier, it looks awesome! Should be great to throw around the windy roads in BeamNG :D

    Maybe you could take some ideas from Mk1 and mk2 Cortinas, especially the trackday cars? The trackday cars people make out of those always seem to have small wheels, that kind of stuff.

    Gabe, why is the race "trim" always removing the bumpers? I mean, what is it supposed to do?

    Are you able to remove the entire bodyshell from the car so all you have left is a chassis, a few seats, wheels and a steering wheel left in BeamNG when it comes out?

    Perhaps... it depends on how integral the bodyshell ends up being to its function. Most cars need at least the firewall and floorpan to exist for the steering wheel and seats to be attached.

    Needs bolt on fenders and a massive front diffuser to be a legit 60's Jap race spec ;)
    Headlights are a bit odd but still a good looking car, can't wait to 'sack' it, put some fat deep dish mesh rims and drive it around :D

    Amazing!

    I do have a question though (and this might be stupid): on some of the the non-american cars in the game, will they be left hand drive or right hand drive? I mean, Gavril is obviously American, so they're on the left-hand side. But Ibishu, it seems, is Japanese, so will they have a right-hand drive wheel? Also, will KM/H/MP/H be based on player language/location or the place the car in question was made?

    Just curious!

    This may be the only car that I'll actualy care about if I go around a corner faster than I should and slam it into a wall. I'm not so sure about those headlights, but all the old Japanese cars are pretty strange so it fits in well.

    I like it, the front end is very unique. I want to smash it up against a wall with the D15.

    This would probably be a US-market version, so most likely left hand drive (though it wouldn't be difficult to convert it to RHD or make both versions)

    I mean to have both versions available at once, rather than just one or the other.

    For some reason, it looks more like a Russian car to me than a Japanese car.
