I gave the title all 3 names since mazda in their infinite wisdom called it different names everywhere which made it murder to order parts back in the day. Its just the type of car that was popular with younger drivers in the 90s. I've done this one as outwardly shiny but the insides a bit worn as thats just what we did then. I tinted the lights green followed by tamiya smoke to tone the green down. I'm sure another coat would have blended them in better but they never did match. again since its a youths 90s build the wheels are from another car, in this case a vw beetle, and are too big for the car. The seats are printed and are the closest i had to cheap bucket seats and i tried to make them look worn down. also i deliberately used non matching browns for the interior trim I started this a 10.30am on friday and it was finished by 11pm. the paint is humbrol green acrylic with tamiya pearl clear and duplicolour clear and i would have been finished faster if i didn't polish it. You may wonder why i did such a fast build but its a tamiya kit with few parts and i needed to say i at least finished something this year, lol. i did actually spray the rubber trim for a change, i usually just use a brush and wing it
