I like the look of the 4, 5, and 6 best though.
I don't like the body kit, and it's a little rough, but the price isn't bad.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Yeah.... Almost too much to invest into a recreational vehicle. Not sure why this number has become the new standard.

They all have their unique flare but the 9 puts it all together best for me.

Re: Cappuccino - Not only a beverage, but an interesting Japanese Kei Car
I got a kick out of this guy at lunch the other day.





And these only the pics I took of him in time. The guy got a good 360 and then some. Lol.

How much are you guys asking for the tiny car outside? Anything wrong with it? Is there a warranty? How about financing?
Sir....this is a Wendy's.

Went to a car show this week. I think the Cappo gets more attention than my 67 Charger. 
Anyways it was fun seeing all these older guys huddle around my car. I approached them later and they were really cool and open to what the Cappuccino is. I probably stood there for about an hour fielding questions and helping each of them in and out of my car. LOL!

So what's the deal with the license plate anyway? It looks ancient.

It's Nevada :d ontknow:
Re: Cappuccino - Not only a beverage, but an interesting Japanese Kei Car
Its not, but its also the wild west out here. Reno is known for its big car community, so you see a fair share of odd, cars, plates, etc. Cops seem to be more interested in meth heads than plates.
I have my temporary sticker up in the window while I wait on my real plates. The good news is I can run the sticker for up to 2 years before I have to take it down. You know what that means? Yea, I'm running my crap plates until it expires.

Re: Cappuccino - Not only a beverage, but an interesting Japanese Kei Car
Yea, not too worried about it.
Also Reno is pretty transient, so we see a lot of different plates driving through all the time.

Re: Cappuccino - Not only a beverage, but an interesting Japanese Kei Car
That sounds like how we get away with not running front plates on most of our cars. MO requires it, but KS doesn't. So you usually only get popped for it when they're already writing you up for some other reason, like a parking violation.

They didn't use to do temps as they always had the plates on hand at the DMV. Now they have to wait for Boise to create them and ship. That is currently about a 3 month lead time.
However as a curtesy they will allow motorists to use that temp tag for the duration of the initial registration (2 years in my case).
