Was running a little later than usual, but that didn’t stop me from taking a few pictures of this Sera.

There’s one up here that shows up at Cars & Coffee from time to time.

For those unaware, those are the factory doors.

Good for them getting in on the ground floor before Mighty Car Mods bumps the value of these.

Why can’t we have fun looking boring cars anymore? Closest we’ve had lately is the Cube.

The want is strong, despite the drivetrain.

Is it wrong I'd want to drive around like that just so everyone knows?

Woah, that’s a seriously good way to start a morning. Sometimes a car is so cool you have to stop even if you’ll be late. I stopped in the middle of a doordash delivery to check out an illegal Nissan Skyline GTR R34 even though the app sent me a sternly worded form letter afterwards. It was worth it.

The Sera is such a little oddball. It really pulls off that gold color well. I’m kind of surprised that it doesn’t seem that much smaller than the Dart next to it.

There’s something to be said for a completely normal car with one outrageous  design element.

Nearly bought one twenty years ago. Haven't seen one in a long time because rust.

I’d take a Sera over a GTR any day. It’s so quirky and mechanicals don’t seem too hard to obtain. I actually got to drive one when I was in HS. So cool for a pretty mundane car.

My Dad was a designer for FoMoCo and they had one as an evaluation vehicle. Back in those days, he would just toss me the keys to most everything he brought home .

Best cars he brought home were: Peugeot 405 Ti16, Sierra 3 door (not the Cossie), Escort RS Cossie, FC RX7 convertible, Mercury Capri (the ugly Aussie built one) painted in a prototype yellow, Porsche 911 Carrera 4, Toyota Celica GT4, JDM Mazda 929.    

I couldn’t drive the Carrera 4 he brought home by myself but we did go for a few rips on the expressway together.

That treat came to a screeching halt when some exec’s kid crashed something.

We have quite a lot of weird JDM cars in Finland but I have never seen a Sera here. I guess it’s the lack power (no 2JZ) or cuteness (it’s not a F igaro) to attract importers. Those headlight would likely be very troublesome to convert to be road legal here.
