EPIC FAIL

Variety is the spice of life. If every carmaker sang from the same song sheet, the world would be a duller place.

Therefore we should salute those who choose to zig where others zag. Those who swim against the current, who colour outside the lines. Companies like Mitsuoka, the small volume Japanese manufacturer that, for the past three decades, has been taking sensible JDM offerings and rebodying them to resemble old timey cars in a proudly off-kilter way.
