Heh.
LOL That's the difference between you & my friend. He accidentally honk the horn few time, but he didn't care, he kept squeezing into the car. It sure was nice entertainment

Just cause you're hinting that it's a Datsun (or Nissan relative) I'm going to throw out that it's an early Silvia. (I really have no freakin' idea...)

Close... but not quite. 710 is still a family of Stanza (like 510). They're counted as compact car.

Looks like no one is getting it, so I'll give out the answer.

It's a '73 Datsun B210/Sunny.

It wasn't famous car, cuz 710 came out same year, so a lot of ppl was fan of 510 than B210. I'm fan of both car, they both have great potentials.

Hmmm... I guess I could have counted down to it. Aside from the colour and the bumpers it's not a bad looking little car.

How about this, should be easy...

In my opinion the single most bad-ass domestic car of the 80s.
