Mitsubishi Minica TOPPO, 1990. A high-roof MPV version of the 6th generation Monica that took advantage of rules allowing Kei cars to be up to 2 metres tall.

Tiny white: 1969 Mitsubishi Minica

This 1969 Mitsubishi Minica Super Deluxe, is a rare piece in the vintage car landscape. This specific model stands out for retaining the original features that made it famous, such as the suicide doors, the original interior in excellent condition, and the 360cc two-stroke engine, reflecting the type of compact vehicles that were popular in Japan during that period. Designed to maximize interior…

Toyota Ravio 4

9/10, love that he has so much room in the back for all of his hoarder shit. He pays someone to sign off on his inspections and routinely forgets about oil changes. Those tires are bald af, and you know those headlights are yellowed as fuck, though. Legend considers it a death trap.

Nissan Sunny

Are you KIDDING ME???? I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS A THING. 2/10 because that's not going to give the princess/incarnation of Hylia enough bullet proof glass. You know Sky would want to put a turbo in that thing.

Mitsubishi Minica Danganon ZZ

1/10 for color, but no Dragmire is fitting any of their anything in this tiny little motherfucker. RIP those shocks.

GAZ Volga

7/10 because I REALLY like the styling on this one, and it looks like something one could ride around in creepily at night stalking people. But Volga would unfortunately trash this thing in less than four months. Our only benefit is that there's probably no airbags in a thing like this, because fuck Volga.

Daihatsu Mirahim

2/10, this thing is HYSTERICAL, but Ghira would (a) not be caught dead in something so clown car-esque, and (2) wouldn't be able to drive it in his 9" platform heels, either.

Pontiac Tetrans Am

4000/10, this thing is OBNOXIOUS and LOUD and it LOOKS SICK and Tetra would rock the FUCK out of this thing and Lullaby will murder her if she ever finds out that her younger sister is joyriding in this badass coupe. A young Stormy desperately wanted one of these in her 20's.

Mercury Marin

11/10. This looks like the kind of car a well-meaning dad might buy secondhand for his daughter's first vehicle, especially when said daughter is in a band, and now I'm tearing up thinking about them.

Ford Saria Sapphire RS Cosworth

8/10. Yeah, this looks like a therapist's car. I imagine Saria would want to drive something newer and ostensibly more reliable, but the compactness of the car is fitting.

Pontiac Fiero Deity

15/10, points for being a rear mid-engine and even more points for making me laugh about the whole catching-fire thing. From Wikipedia, "Safety issues escalated rapidly by the summer of 1987, when the fire count for 1984 models reached a rate of 20 fires per month. Fieros were catching fire at the rate of one for every 508 cars sold, surpassing all other mass-market automobile cars." Yeah, something that runs so hot it self-destructs? That's VERY Deity.

Mazda Midnata

0/10, listen, my husband used to have one of these bitches and it was the WORST. TOURING CAR. It was SO FUCKING UNCOMFORTABLE. We could NEVER fit any of our shit in the trunk. Midna would not only not fit in this thing with her headdress and being 9' tall and whatnot, but I don't picture her being a light packer for a long weekend, either.

MITSUBISHI MINICA 1970

[seat-safety-switch]

As I am frequently reminded, my body requires just as much maintenance as a car. Despite its amazing ability to repair minor skin and chassis damage, the human body will eventually break down from poor nutrition, age, and leaning over the engine bay of a Mitsubishi Debonair for hours on end. So when I heard on the only still-functional radio in my fleet that the local gym was looking for new members, I figured it was fate.

When I turned up, I noticed that it was difficult to park close to the place. For some reason, the other denizens of the gym didn’t want to walk very far before getting their daily fill of physical exercise. I guess I can understand trying to get maximum value out of your membership. I was still sad to park next to a new Acura SUV and watch its paint immediately wrinkle and flake away in the mere presence of my ‘72 Minica, which was once described in high-velocity Spanish by a bodyshop technician as being “the Earthly incarnation of Sa’alt The Rust God.”

Once I got in, I wasn’t terribly impressed. Lifting heavy objects in awkward positions? That’s your average tire change on the six-wheeled offroad-mutant Saab 900 I’ve been working on in my spare time. Long endurance runs? You gotta get home somehow after your car tries to grow an extra cylinder hole. Nutrition? The vending machine dispensed chunks of protein which looked roughly equivalent to what I could scrape off the bottom of my vegetable-crisper drawer. I decided to get my money back, and also use my pocket angle-grinder to remove a particularly healthy looking part of the locker room metal for my time.

Out in the parking lot, the Minica had healed at least the floorpan, and the Acura was now a lone piece of unibody, rust swarming over its panels as the metal boiled inside. I guess a little visit to the gym really does work out.

Mitsubishi Minica Dangan ZZ, 1989. The high performance version of the 6th generation of Mitsubishi's kei car was powered by the world's first mass-produced 5-valve-per-cylinder engine. The 657cc 3G83T turbo in-line 3 cylinder produced 64hp, the maximum allowed under kei-car rules

Mitsubishi Minica Toppo. You may not like it, but this is what ideal compact car design looks like. Also, bonus retro styled Town Bee and step through variants.

コレも2014の三菱自工本社ショールームに展示されていた、ミニカスキッパーです。 「ミニGTO」と呼ぶにふさわしいスタイル、カラーですね。軽のファストバックは、コレとフロンテクーペ、セルボ（クーペ）くらいしか思いつきません… #MITSUBISHI #三菱 #Minica #ミニカ #MinicaSkipper #ミニカスキッパー #旧車 #JDM https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ZjAYKnAFl/?igshid=6qdrmv0ipt06
