Evidence of these other cars[edit]

The last section mentions some really cool sounding cars. Does anyone have any Pictures or names because I'd lovew to see them.(86.31.182.119 (talk) 19:52, 5 August 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Yes - some resembling the Vanden Plas are the Copel Bonito, Copel Ministar, Lotas Princess and Mook the Tokyo Princess (!). For pictures of these, and the Autech cars and the Verita, try http://www.xs4all.nl/~mjs/March.html . I think Nissan are still making the Verita in Taiwan - I really ought to get round to doing a page about it!

Others - apart from the ones mentioned in the article, there's something of a trend for old styling in Japan. Some are modifications of existing models which just look old:

Daihatsu Opti Classic
Daihatsu Atrai Classic
Mitsubishi Minica Town Bee
Mitsubishi Minica Toppo Town Bee
Mitsubishi Bravo Route 66
Autech (Nissan) March Bolero
Subaru Vivio Bistro
Subaru Sambar Classic and Dias Classic
Subaru Pleo Nesta
Suzuki Alto C and C2
Suzuki Cervo C

and most of Mitsuoka's range!

Others (usually separate models) look like something particular:

Daihatsu Mira Gino
Toyota Classic
Toyota Origin
Mooku Reve - a Honda Acty modified to look like a Citroen H Van
DAMD Ancel Lapin - a kit to make the Suzuki Alto Lapin look like a Renault 4.

Some pictures are on Wikipedia (eg the Daihatsu Opti Classic), and most of the rest can be found by looking at Japanese car export websites with a bit of persistence. Try http://www.carsensor.net/catalog to start with (don't let the Russian put you off!). AJHW (talk) 16:35, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. On another note I've only seen viewts with auto boxes. were manual offered? (86.31.188.36 (talk) 23:12, 7 August 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Sorry this has been so long. This is what comes of going on holiday - by the time I got back your reply wasn't on my watchlist any more! Anyway -

The car-sensor page about the Viewt says there was a manual from 1995 in the first version, and from March 2008 in the second version. I think automatics are quite popular in Japan - and possibly people who want Viewt-type styling want an auto too! AJHW (talk) 13:25, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
