The Daihatsu Copen '02 is great.

That's all I have to say.

Also I love the turbo whistle from this car... 😁

[Driff]

Even in the peak N100 class, this is still slower than the Peugeot RCZ around the track. I wished it was at least as fast, but this is still a pretty cute car.
Here's to hoping the Storia X4 comes to the game.

Hope more Kei Cars come to GT Sport like the Suzuki Cappuccino and Autozam (Mazda) KZ-1.

I built a Copen to a "race" spec - 146hp/760kg Racing Hard, with stock gear ratio except a 0.707 5th ( an actual aftermarket gear )

The car drives like hell and handles very well. And 8:00.6 on the Nordschleife is a number I can be proud of in a Copen.

I wanna see the '98 Daihatsu Move or the Mira TR-XX in GT Sport.

This car you really need a manual transmission for, peak power comes early, and late upshifting (as you get with automatic) makes it slower!

[Filipe]

All there is left to add are the Suzuki Cappuccino and the Autozam AZ-1 to do the big battle of the sport style Kei Cars

Not tried it, but I’m not really a fan of the design. Love the Honda Beat though. Great content 👍

I saw a fairly rusted out Triumph Spitfire in a parking lot here where I live in Tampa, Florida. The fabric of the convertible top was gone and the framing was rusted to the point you couldn't put it down anymore. Even though it was a rusted out shitbucket, I knew exactly what it was. Mainly cause of Gran Turismo, but some because of it's "exotic" British classic nature.

Although I wouldn't own one personally, I like it. Even though "it's an expensive shoe."

I've got the same skin on my 911 RSR! Team Falken Daytona 2015...

HSG what you think of the retro styled nissan figaro
PS. tomorrow forza will update the game and add a forgotten group c racer ASTON MARTIN AMR1/4

[RadioDemon]

I love these car reviews i learn alot, i bought all 3 new K cars right after the update just because i like to have all cars that are avivable and cause they were so cheap i had enough left for the new F1 car

[matthewmcintosh]

Do you review these cars stock or at full tuning potential?

[shadowchrome_]

Hiya small thing but in japan kei cars like the copen have special yellow plates instead of white

[grahamlowe]

rubbish and the 1m daihatsu is ridiculous.

[Sneaux]

I remember your trumpet noise video hahaha.
