Never before have I heard of the Charade. Come to think of it, I don’t really remember the last time I saw a Daihatsu on the roads.. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and you might actually win a car show for a rare import...

At the quick lube I worked at out of high school we’d often wonder what a Daihatsu Charade and Rocky (among all the other odd foreign cars listed) were that were in our oil filter books.

“Two words”

“First word”

“One syllable”

“sounds like” (makes hitting motion with fist)

Probably the worst named care ever. Maybe “Vapid Poseur” would be worse.

1 liter, 3 cylinder, turbo. 800 kg (empty), >100 hp. I want one too.

I did drive a 4 cylinder 1.3L Charade of that generation once. That too was more fun to drive than I had expected.

My dad, who used to live in the US Virgin Islands said that the Rocky was actually kinda cool and popular. I’ve never heard of it until last night.

That actually looks rather interesting. Boxy hatch. I dig it.
