You meant the Hama Coniglio? Do they have built a new car?

However it's not the name I have for this car.

Yes - I meant the Hama Coniglio.
Just thought it might have been rebuilt with a new body - obviously wrong!
Is this car based on a Honda?

As far as I understand it's based on a different car, quite common!

This is a Kei-Class racer and this particular car won its class at the 2009 K4-GP at Fuji Speedway.
As to what it's called, however, that seems to be very hard to find out!
Is it called the Mental Ginza SS?
It might be based on a Suzuki..?

Actually I've found it not so hard to find out how it's called...  As you are pretty close I lock it for you for 24h.

So it must be called the Sarah II Prototype then?
Actually I wrote that first in my post but then changed it because I couldn't believe they would call a car that!
Maybe 'Sarah' is a translation of 'Sawa' by my computer?

You've found it! Well done! :applause:
Now you only need to give me the name of the company which made the Sarah II. It's more obvious than you might believe...Still locked for you!

Properly searched you might profit in an unexpected way!  ;)

BTW: "Sarah II" is the real name of this car and not a translation error.

There are plenty of pictures of the car (see below!) but little actual information, which seems to be the usual Japanese style.
Maybe the team that enters the car is called Mental Ginza, because that keeps cropping up.  Otherwise I can find nothing except perhaps T.M. Works; is that the maker?

No, that's not the name I have. I give you one more chance to come in with the correct name.
After that I have to open it for all again.  :-\

There are quite a lot infos available of this car, including all kinds of specifications you need to know, but maybe you have to use a certain tool. (quite common if you search outside your own borders  ;) )
