Neither would I!

I can see myself buying one of these one day as a disposable track toy when they start going under 10k used, since it would be like a hardtop NA Miata. With the light weight and cheap engine, you could afford to blow things up left and right and it would barely cost any money. However, I would only do that if there is literally nothing else out there, because I would throw up a little every time I saw the "mouth".

I had a luke warm Peugeot 206. Its claimed power was 130 hp. It weighed something like 1060 kgs with me in the car. On twisty roads I thought it was a riot to drive.

At first read I thought what a ridiculous statement. Then I looked at the pics and realised yeah, there is a happy and sad/angry look to the renditions.

That would sell so well in Japan. Someone needs to put the kawaii eyelashes on it.

I occasionally see a modern Mini with eyelashes. It makes me cringe, I want to curl up in a ball and tell the voices in my head to go away. Omg, my stomach is churning just thinking about it.
