Description
Yes, this is an actual Daihatsu Mira L200 Avanzato TR-XX Turbo hyper kei-car, a very rare car in the USA. The Mira Avanzato was one of the best appointed kei cars sold on the Japanese market in the early 90s.
The car is powered by a 660cc, 12 valve 3 cylinder, and had a published power rating of 64ps, in a car weighing only 670KG / 1470 pounds. Power is put to the front wheels thru a short shifting 5 speed gearbox.
This is an imported vehicle and does not have a conforming 17 digit VIN to eBay's system. The chassis number L200S-601051 - Image of the vin plate is included in the images. Clear Wisconsin title.The interior is in beautiful condition, with all original upholstery and carpet, checkerboard floormats. No rips or tears anywhere. The headliner is in great shape, and is molded into place, with a shimmering wave effect sculpted into it, much like they did in the Nissan Cube. For such a small car, the seats are supportive and comfortable. I'm 6'2, and have no problem finding a good driving position.
Options include
- AC
- Power steering
- Power windows
- Power door locks
- Pioneer Carrozzeria / CD system including subwoofer in trunk,
- Factory installed clock which keeps perfect time.

- Aftermarket wheels
- Add-on turbo boost gauge
- Turbo-timer

- Cone breather
- Atmospheric turbo blowoff valve
- Club Factory aftermarket steering wheel
- HID headlights.
- I do not have any of the original items that were modified. This is how I bought the car, which was brought to the US by a JDM importer located in Janesville WI.
The Mira is an absolute riot to drive. I've had it over 130 KPH (80mph) and it will hold it's own at highway speeds. The 105kmh Japanese speed alarm was disabled, so you can drive it flat out without the speed minder driving you nuts. Clutch is short and responsive and the 5M trans has quick short throws. Power brakes are front disc, rear drum, stops quickly in straight line.
Body is nice and straight. Doors seal nicely, no dents or scratched. The major flaw is the the paint on the driver's side fender top has faded (see pic) and would need to be repainted to make perfect, but rest of the body is excellent.
