Mazda 323 based?

Bad engineered I'd say.

Although the FOMOCO models had a better looking tailgate, as it is slightly curved, at least compared with the Colombian spec 323 I knew.

Yes...under it all sits a Mazda 323, which btw are a good 80's, no frills economy car.

Thanks, I always suspected but wasn't certain. 323s were baller, this not as much.

Oops, it should have read BADGE engineered.

Were these photos taken in Duluth?

I had a '88 Mazda 323 many years, no wonder this was looking very familiar. :)

It rusted away and had to be scrapped. :(

Otherwise quite reliable small family car for short distances.

Anything above 100 miles wasn't fun but good mpg, ~33 on average town&road including winter,with 1600cc engine and 5-speed gearbox.

Not a fast far but adequate for a daily driver mostly used for commuting.

These things used to be everywhere. I've only seen one buzzing around the past 2 or so years. Pretty interesting rebadge of the 323, not as bizzare as the Sao Penza though.
