You’re not going to get a car with a bespoke chassis for $12-13k...

I own one (mine is also that light blue, which is no longer being offered) and I can attest that it is A LOT of fun. Sometimes I wish it had a little more passing power, but for the narrow roads of Japan and the low speed limits, those times are few and far between. It’s a shame that this is a Japan-only car.
