We bought a tiny little kei car – a Suzuki Cappuccino – earlier this year with one goal in mind; making it quicker than the current go-to entry-level sportscar, the Mazda MX-5. Has Mike accomplished his goal? With the help of Abbie Eaton, let’s find out!

4:00 dębica kinda legendary polish tire company now budget part of goodyear. back in my childhood we had only Dębica or Kormoran on our fiat 125p
where is jeremy
You are very boring buddy put some energy I love old top gear also the grant tour but you are not entertaining
LS swap
That smug face on the green Miata when he calls it "Goliath" ..
Rotary swap
Heck yes Abbie
Crush the car
Abbie! Yay! 🎉
Give the 1.8 better suspension
How much time is lost/gained by the hard top adding stiffness to the chassis between the two miatas?
Cappuccinos are death traps lol
Hayabusa swap her.
tyres would really just make the car perfect
Take it round the nurburgring
The red Miata is sitting low on its tires- that’s not a stock suspension.
I'm so scared to watch this 🥶
09:55 could this be related to the mounted hardtop? I always felt like mine felt stiffer with the hardtop on and had less body roll.
now put a bike engine in it
Any other Americans notice the Yankees cap?
Make a replica of the Suzuki Cappuccino RM from Gran Turismo 5 and 6.
I think you absolutely should keep Yuki on, give them more tweaks and upgrades here and there (including better tires) and see just how far you can go with them!
The answer has to be a bike engine conversion
The slow window roll-up was a little bit hilarious
Make it faster than a GT3 RS
I’d say you can go on a road trip with Yuki, like the boys do with the cars
Slap a Hyabusa in the beasty
The 90hp 1.6L mx-5 engine is the wrong engine. They should test with the older 115hp engine.
Bit more power, new tyres, take it club racing 🙂
Race a Eunos import mx5, import to import and see how it goes?
Scrap the MX-5 and put the V10 in the Cappuccino.
I'm not convinced that 1.6 is standard LOL. Pretty sure the exhaust is aftermarket (I suspect MX5 Parts or Cobalt) and it looked too flat through the corners to be on stock suspension. It also has a headlight vent, which is another nod to suggest it's not standard ;).
Edit: Also, look at the ride height on the 1.6 compared to the 1.8. I know Mike said towards the end the suspension was new and suggested it was OE but I'm not so sure….LOL
Awesome video, though.
put tyres on, fix ride height, and go for the fastest time!
Sell it for now. You've done enough. It's lovely
Dębica Frigo i się śmigo
It's wads more interesting than a 4 door 90s rover. At least it's quasi cool
This goes to show if anything, how important it is to replace suspension on older cars even if they’re not ‘broken’ or leaking. AND how you don’t necessarily need to uprate it; just keep it new and fresh
congrats on barely beating a stock car with 10k in mods and repairs 😂
Give her some better tires and tweak the suspension and see how much better you can do.
Put a bigger engine in it
That was cool! How about an original BMW Z3 with the 4-cylinder and manual combination? 😅
Here in Japan, we cringe every time you call it "Yuki" (although concidentally, Yuki means "go")
A Mazda Miata with a Audi 5 cylinder would be cool. It would be like a mini Dodge Viper with the sound from that 5cylinder.
Are you alright bud?
Kuddos to Abbie
V10 time attack Yuki! (Gran Turismo Cappuccino Gr.4 bodykit recreation?)
