Mitsuoko’s wacky little Galue Limousine S50 is definitely – different.
The Tokyo Motor Show, the 41st installment of which is taking place later this month, is home to all kinds of automotive Oriental oddities, and thank god for it. Mitsuoka motors for instance can always be counted on for an interesting homage – witness the ballsy Rolls-Royce ripoff Galue Limousine S50, based on the Infiniti M35, which they debuted at previous proceedings, as well as the 180 kg Mitsuoka Micro-Car, a sort of pared-down pastiche of 1930s racers. This year they plan to present the Viewt, which no matter how you describe it is a Nissan Micra masquerading as a classic Jaguar Mk II. – From James List
