Daihatsu P-5 from the late 1960-s.

Looks too P5-ish to be P1 or P2 and I've never heard of either P4 or P6. Still, it doesn't mean they did not exist, so is it also from P-series?

A great puzzle, though - really puzzling...

I was going to opt for a P-4 as well Faksta, but I wasn't aware if such a model existed! ???

Not one of the above mentioned... This thing is smaller than it appears...

Smaller than a P5? It had a 1.3L engine.

Based on a Daihatsu Kei car model I assume (e.g. Fellow Max)?

It's getting really close. One part of the name is reveiled. The race is on!

It certainly looks to me like a scaled-down Daihatsu in the series that the Porshce appeared in.
I'm not really 'au fait' with these cars but I am interested to more learn about them.

I guess the puzzle car raced much earlier than the Porshce which I believe is a rather recent project.

Close but no cigar... 'Daihatsu' and 'Fellow' are correct, but there's something missing.
