Hey guys, since we already have a lot of threads concerning different kind of cars, I thought one for Kei Cars would fit pretty good here. :)

For anyone who doesn't know what a Kei Car is:
[WIKIPEDIA]Kei cars, K-cars, or keijidōsha (軽自動車?, lit. "light automobile") (pronounced [keːdʑidoːɕa]), are a Japanese category of small vehicles, including passenger cars, vans, and pickup trucks. They are designed to exploit local tax and insurance regulations, and in most rural areas are exempted from the requirement to certify that adequate parking is available for the vehicle. These standards originated in the times following the end of the Second World War, when most Japanese could not afford a full-sized car yet had enough to buy a motorcycle. To promote the growth of the car industry, as well as to offer an alternative delivery method to small business and shop owners, kei car standards were created.[/WIKIPEDIA]


Anyway, I will start with my blue monster:
 
I've a few:

The first shot is great! 👍
 
Cool! I love Kei's. I'll post some pictures of my Daihatsu Move later.
 
A Kei Car pic thread wouldn't be complete without me posting the original AZ1 drift beast :p

Fantastic! Glad to see some appreciation for the small fry :)

One of the prettier classic Kei cars is this, something I banged on about in other threads; Japan's riposte to the Hillman Imp:

Only Kei Car I've thrown some money at so far, sounds great with a full racing exhaust but it's bark is definitely worse than it's bite hehe.
