Had never heard of this car before, but now I want one.

I quite like them! They are JDM kei cars. The Alto Lapin comes in a variety of versions, but they are mostly all the more boring Automatic variants. As far as I know, the SS was the only manual version, but came in FWD and AWD flavors....not sure if the AWD models had manual transmissions, but if so, that would be pretty awesome! :)
I just love the way they are small and unassuming, yet have an amusingly silly ‘macho-ness’ to them! :P

The SS badge reminds me of the ones used on fifth-generation Chevy Camaros.

Very similar! The Alto Lapin SS started production in 2003, so they beat Chevy to it! :P

It’s like a kei version of a G-Wagen, mixed with some Nissan Cube.
