    Your face after that first pull in the Vivio.
    Those cars are great, a decent import was way out of my price range or I’d have been all over a Vivio. You should almost do it up in the Rally Kenya colours - love that Subaru

    I would take the Vivio Rx-R over any of the A,B,C cars. Drop tops are nice but, a roomy interior and trunk space sells it for me. The convertibles, though very cool, just aren't practical. Of all the KEI cars you've tested so far, I think the Vivio performed the best and got the most reaction out of you. It would be an awesome every day driver.

    I love this thing. Drives like my mira almost. Seems to Rev a tad lower then mine at 100kph. Maby cut its the 4 cylinder. Great video

    looks a lot like a baby WRX - I say (if you get it and wrap it) go for World Rally Blue (close to it). Blue is probably my least favorite color but you'd almost have to go that route.

    8:27 judging by the RPM’s left on the tachometer it could see 160 KPH with ease. Maybe 175 even. I don’t know though. I am new to KEI cars/trucks. Didn’t even know this car existed 30 minutes ago. And up till 2 weeks ago I didn’t realize how many different types there are. I have a 91 Honda CRX w a ‘99 civic motor n tranny in it. Doing a 3” lift, external rollcage, and all terrain tires. Setting it up as Baja/trail rig/ mad max/ SHTF type vehicle.

      I believe all kei cars are governed to 85mph so idk if I could go over 140kph unless you get a chipped ecu. Very popular with Honda beats and Suzuki Cappuccinos

    Yes, the engine and suspensions were clearly built at a higher cost than modern Kei cars.
    And it allegedly violated horsepower regulations. lol
