I could have sworn it was an old Toyota or maybe Datsun, but I'm not pulling anything up with that. The rims are almost giving it away but it's been a long long time since I've seen it real life. I don't think it's a VW and I'm not really leaning toward European, but maybe the rims are just throwing me off. That's the only shot I have, it came off the television, if it helps, the body is kind of like a fiero mixed with an old prelude, very low profile.

Yes.  That looks like a early Fiat X/19.  I can make out the pop-up headlights.  And it looks like a targa top.  Just my guess!

Yep, that's it. Wow, I totally thought it was Japanese, maybe I thought so in the past too.

Thank you, prelude. I really was just curious, maybe I had a project brewing in my head but not so sure now.

With the wheels that it has, it looks more like a Mazda 626. I could be wrong, though. It could even be a Toyota Corona. I can't tell. I wish there was a shot of the front of it.

Looking at it again... it reminds me of a Mazda Cosmo. Again, I could be wrong.
