Japan + Retro + 6 = Fugly



Looks like a PT Cruiser and a Weisman Roadster mated in a muclear reactor. Or some kinda freaky space age neoclassic, where the 2 fake wheels mounted on the front fender become real wheels that turn with the steering. Another one from the 2005 Tokyo Auto Show.

For those wondering, this is the Weisman Roadster (which I somehow find kinda attractive):

I DO like your analogies, Bean!!!
This DOES look like half-melted-microwave-love-child,
between-PTCruiser, W-Roadster, AND VW New Beetle!

The Roadsters ARE quite nicely done!
I agree 100%!!!
