Do you think that you could find out if this car still exists? If it does, could you do a review of it?

Ah, it’s a Daihatsu Charade, and yes, it is still being made:

No idea if it still rallies though.

The Detomaso Daihatsu Charade 926R, it is a turbocharged 3 cylinder, mid-engine, hatchback designed for Group B that never got to race or production as Group B got shut down. So basically it’s as Orlove said a tiny ball of cooked cocaine.

Pretty certain it doesn’t exist anymore... The only place in the world where it could be would be at the Daihatsu Humobility World museum... And it’s not there. Also, have you ever seen it run? I’m not even sure that the Tokyo Auto Show car was a running one in the first place...

It seems to have an engine... But no idea where the car might be. My guess is that it was simply destroyed when abandonned...

In Toyota Yaris badging, it certainly does still rally.

This one had japanese drivers, so it’s most likely abandonned here :)

And I’m not sure where it raced... lots of local racers used the NSX here so...

Yeah I guessed that. They weren’t always though, Daihatsu used to make their own Charade.
