it's suppose to be around or less than 2000lbs. safety equipment isn't as strict in jdm cars i heard, vs ones sold in the us since overall speed is much slower in japan.

but yah, if that came to the US with a 1L turbo at 2500lbs and some taffyapple sat in it with a gross weight of ~3000lbs, then yah, the car will just snap in half...

yah, i personally dont care for those golfcarts either.

i like my cars that fit me like a glove so that it's like a part of my body.
honda was known for making cars like that until about the mid-2000's... and when S2000's were gone, not too many cars like that at all.

I'm probably the craziest when it comes to small cars. 6'4" and my largest interior is the Z
