I like it! You live out of the states i'm guessing, because those side mirrors are the euro kind.

I don't think those were designed for Europe. I think they are for the market in Japan. Japan required folding mirrors, side markers, wider fenders, as well as taillamps with a specific arrangement BY LAW. That car has all of those.

Maybe they use them in Europe as well... Interesting.
