Suzuki Cuppucino [Wanted]

Hi all,
Its just a general question. Wondering if anyone knows how much these things go for.
General specs=
Engine
Weight
Power
Handling
Potiential
Anyway i saw one on an old trading post for 6k half prepped for a race/uphill race. White.
Well on the initial d extra stage game they had a 10k redline? Is that true?
How hard are these things to fix/find parts.
Anyone know where/how much i can pick these things from?
Any info would be greatly appreciated. This might be my future daily driver unless i'm going for a 92 corolla in factory condition. So guys! help me out!

and if you are over 170cm, will be a bit of a squeeze inside...
It's prolly smaller than a lot of club racers.
From what I heard, not to torqy either..

I wonder if a rotary would fit into that engine bay? Are they rear wheel drive??? I'm thinking that could be a fun project but would be hard/impossable to get rego'ed

47 kw??? is that the power output?
Hmmz. The one i was looking at is gone. Dammit. Its a steal for 6k. A little bit deterring the actual price is 16k plus.
if a 660cc motor can fit in it. I rekon u could fit a rotor in it. Hehe. it maybe pitiful 660cc. but there is liberal space under the bonnet.

The one i saw was at Auto fair. Sometime during June/July.

I rekon they're a cute car. Just like a mini mx5

Hey I just saw your post well my good mate has a suzuki cappucino. he doesn't really like it to tell you the truth. It is quiet underpowered from what I felt and not much room and pretty impractical. The car looks great and has a kind of novelty factor towards it. Depends what car you are after and what you will be using it for. By the way it isn't rwd it is fwd. In the aftermarket parts area it should be easy to gain extra kilowatts due to the turbocharger just a though right? Also in Sydney NSW they sell around 15 to 22 depending from a private sale or dealership.
Good luck with it all
Eddy

If he doesn't like it. Tell me a price  .
I aint abandoning toyota. But i need something a little more cruisey and flashy. I aint after the power. I like the newness and ease of driving a newer car. That way i can get alot more done to my car coz i have something else to drive.
I heard cuppucinos have pretty decent handling and can be boosted to around 90kw @ wheels very easily. For 600 kg thats much liberal power. Besides i don't drag very often. And it would be great when the new rc season starts and i can actually do laps in the suzuki. Lolz

there are a few in adelaide, and ko-ko they are most definitely rwd, and they also have lsd as an option.
"not very torquey".....
no fucken shit, a short stroke engine with a motor bike redline, with only 3 bangers and 660cc hang on, it is a motorbike engine lol!!!  ,
u could do what bullet did to the mx5, with the 325kw lexus v8 in it , me thinks handling would be a LITTLE fucked, not to mention engine bay a little small, but if u kept the standard wheels, u could drive around with nonstop wheel spin!!
