Japanese "Engrish" perhaps?

"Barchetta" literally means "little boat"  and is the term used to describe an open two seater (in US terminology a "roadster") with all enveloping body, ie not with separate mudguards.  It is inappropriate for a closed coupé like this one.  It looks as if this is actually a "barchetta" or "roadster" with a detachable hard top fitted turning it into a "coupé ".
