what car?

I forgat to add that tuning is cheap and verry effective, sice your power to weight ratio goes crazy as soon as you put a slightly bigger engine in it.
The 1350cm3 engine of a Hayabusa is pretty popular for stuff like that, add a turbo and you can hunt pretty much anything.
Also cornering is insane and any speed feels fast.
2009 Peugeot 107 (also sold as Toyota Aygo)

Girl?

No, I am male.

da ist der aygo noch ein ganzes stück hübscher, meine fresse ist dieser 107 deformiert. dann doch lieber 206rc

Aussehen ist Geschmackssache.
Ein Suzuki cappuchino wäre ideal gewesen, gibt es hier aber quasi nicht.

hab' schon ein paar hier in wien gesehen. daihatsu trevis/copen ebenfalls, aber du hast recht. wenn es sie gibt, dann mit extremer ricer tax

Mit dem 107 zahle ich wenigsten kaum Steuern, Versicherung, Verschleiß und der Verbrauch ist mit 3,9LBenzin/100km angegeben.(bei mir eher 4-5L da ich meist etwa 150km/h fahre)

In certain places, you can't buy a car over a certain set of dimensions and engine power UNLESS you prove you have off-street parking to keep it in.
If you cannot, then you can only own a keicar.

That is the only reason they exist.

United States - 90 people per square mile
Japan - 874 people per square mile

An S-Cargo is not a kei car.

sperg alert kek

I'm not gonna calm down, you bitch ass nigger, stop spreading false info here, cock faggot.

you have to own a parking space before you can own a car.

japan has the world's best mass transit systems. so you rarely need to drive.

>IT AIN'T CALLED THE BILL OF NEEDS

you sound underage.

You can keep cursing but it doesnt make you look cool/edgy

...

>best cars in the planet
>choose to be a busriding neet faggot

fucking hell, no wonder japan is so cucked

>everyone in japan lives in tokyo.

its like saying everyone who lives in America is in NYC

god youre stupid

I want one of those comfy kei vans.

Might import one of those little fuckers since I live in DC.

Except he is not wrong, thats still much cheaper than regular car tax.

>larger-displacement engines get taxed harder

Wasn't this the reason why Mazda focused so much on rotary engines?

you mean they cant have big vehicles

but rotaries are gasoline sinks

>163cm

>Male

LOL keep telling yourself that.

it isn't just displacement that determines which plate your car is.

all the RX-7s I saw in Japan were 300 plates. small engines that are not Kei, are 500. 300 is for larger passenger cars which are not trucks.

even the honda civic hybrid was a 300 plate.

Tiny parking space

Insanely expensive gasoline due to both transportation cost and high gasoline tax

This.

Just because you have a penis doesn't mean you're male.

They can, it's just stupidly expensive and impractical to do so

Some rich westaboos drive American land barges and shit there

>This guy is only 5 foot 3 or so

Damn there are girls taller than that

And there are girls taller than 6'2", what's your point?
I swear height fags are mentally 10

a yearly tax on cars?

Do we pay that here in North America too? For the record I get my dad to change my oil, certify, or whatever because i am spoiled (and my car is in his name so it doesn't fuck with student loans).

I'm Japanese and this is the answer.

>embracing economies of scale
you mean """safety""" standards
t. american't

...

It may sound strange for Americans, but in some places even 'compact' cars are huge. You all laugh when I say I find difficult to find parking for my Ford Focus Sedan here in Madrid because here in our cramped ass streets is almost a land barge.

...

I wonder if gayropean car manufacturers dropped on their knees and begged Nippons to not come to their market with their kei cars.

AWD?

Can't you see rear solid axle?

...

Yes, Japan raised Kei car tax but!
Theyre not removing the tax difference entirely. (or have not yet) its still cheaper to own and insure a kei car.

Yes they want to increase the cost of kei cars but its not going to be immediate and not instant either, when a hatchback costs the same as a kei car, it will die naturally.

> Focus saloon
Yeah, that's your fault for buying the inferior non-hatchback version.

The arbitrary displacement limit of the Kei car (660cc) also allowed the Japanese government to isolate a large segment of the domestic market from the auto industry of developed foreign nations.

makes them look taller

Well, I do have a penis...

What else defines my sex?

boipucci

I´m not gay.

>Do we pay that here in North America too?
yeah, its called registration and smog fees.

>this little thing has AWD
>it will most likely be sold where I live
