NMNA... but I like these for some reason. And the current owner did alot of the maint work that would be needed to make it a daily.

Is this a Festiva with different badging?

Rock Auto shows the shocks for the 1.3 are available. I would be surprised (shocked?!) if they didn't fit the 1.0 model. Anything is possible though.

No, I think the Festiva was built in partnership with Mazda.

OK then....

Is this a Mazda 121 with different badging? Front and overall silhouette looks incredible close.

This was built in partnership w/ toyota, I think. Something about 40+mpg in a car that looks decent enough to be seen in speaks to me. And its light and cheap.

Swank, it has nothing to do with Mazda.

Daihatsu=Toyota, though I don't know how far down the line the partnership extended or how far back.

A coworker at a local water park years ago took me for a hell ride in his '89 Charade 3dr in the gravel back lots. These things have momentum rallyx car written all over them.
