The longer the video the better! So detailed - Hope to see more like this :)

[@jjchan6]

Holy that thing is amazing, I've never seen one before and I love all the small things about it. congrats to the new owner!

[@banpeinet]

I have been waiting a long time for this to be featured on the channel! what a beautiful and stunning car! congratulations to the buyer/owner!

[@raceme8295]

The original listing for this car had the engine as a Nissan Z10 Cube Alpha CGA3 1348cc engine. And not an hk11 CG13 march engine. Also.... yes the stock engine is 76hp. (101hp in the cube)That is with hillariously restrictive intake and exhaust manifolds.If this is a cg13 it will be well over 110hp and 100ftlbs If its the cga3 1.4 engine..... it will be in the region of 130hp. 120ftlbs

[@joshlockie9285]

Ant Aiken that was my guess

[@Camhin1]

I hope this car gets you guys a bunch of views and subscribers because you guys deserve it.

[@Madvillayo]

lol you right, i just discovered this channel & its dope as fuck

[@rogeriostudart7723]

Dude, Japanese really know how to customize a car 👏

[@COBHC8890]

That is the coolest thing ive seen in awhile!!!!!!!! Deff....kinda....want a Figaro??!! lol

[@abrahambennett4656]

you probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream all of the new movies on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my girlfriend for the last days :)

[@dakariodin188]

@Abraham Bennett definitely, been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)

[@CarnavaldeOruro]

Great purchase, thanks for the videos, great job guys!

[@30minforasn]

Why would people dislike this video? Such a beautiful work or art.

[@cheesmastr5303]

Or people who don't like the car?

[@falconeye577]

LIE This car was only made one year, 1991 but they are very cool

[@TeternalGIone]

Very cool pretty little thing and not even complaining that its not full electric but the steering wheel is on the wrong side :P

[@the.driverseat]

never imagined the figaro looking this fresh

[@adolfharambesstrongbleacha4475]

your neighbours are ass wipes if they phone the police for you creating such a beautiful soothing sound of a engine

[@iphone202020220]

My cars are all boosted so my neighbors hate me.

[@R33Racer]

horny pedo It's sad, Japanese people can be difficult to deal with at times. Also some are pretty racist, they don't like western people living there, especially if they speak their native language in the open. Perhaps Derek is a target for a neighbor who has no tolorance for western people or could just be fussy. Speaking as a guy who is a friend with someone that lives there.

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

Have you always been an idiot or is this a recent development? Just so you know, grouping all people's... well anything becuse of your limited experiences is the very definition of racism you ugly American...

[@R33Racer]

Superb Media Content Creator If you're referring to me, I'm not American. As said I'm speaking from someone I know that lives there and has told me the cultural conflict he's experienced. Plus I'm talking about a small (but significant) minority. So instead of assuming my native country, about you live there any then tell me I'm wrong?

[@adolfharambesstrongbleacha4475]

R33Racer hey if u don't mind me asking where r u from

[@jamespigeon1399]

I’m actually using a Nissan figaro as a project car right now ( he was right about the tires)

[@richardschmidt6921]

Excellent work in the quality of your content as well hope you get sponsoring you have earned it !

[@TubbyBrainbow]

I saw this car on the auction watch couple weeks ago nice to see you bought it

[@hegeliandetective1034]

In U.S.A. Nebraska state, we can have noises from 7am to 10pm, all day, rumbling exhaust, motorcycles, straight pipes, you name it.

[@doriftokingu170]

gt3 rs themed figaro

[@PentaYOOO]

This is an awesome car. I love the seat inserts. The color and pattern is just super cool

[@abbysapples1225]

Never seen this car in my life. The looks remind me of a model from the late 1960s.

What an amazing looking car!

[@jln1039]

I saw this on the interweebss!!! so it was you guys who got it :D

[@WestSide1207]

Wow, stunning. Very well bought. This has got to be the coolest car ever featured on PCA, congrats to the lucky buyer of this awesome ride!

[@thebigj8691]

I know importing from Japan has a wide variety of cars, this Figaro would be one of the slickest old school JDM daily drivers in my book. Great grab for your customer!!!!! Plus the car audio is top notch. Those amps and processors are worth like 1K in the states.

[@andrewdevall4438]

derek, considering the geeky car things you like, i think you would enjoy reading up on headlight retrofitting. more specifically performance mods, tuning etc. not so much the super ricey flashy colors and stuff

[@mr.y.mysterious.video1]

A few years back an uncle saw someone driving a figwort, he followed them home and persuaded them to sell it to him. His daughter drove it off on the day of her marriage

[@CarPhonix]

That's what I'm talking about!! Nice equipment in that car!

[@curtisburnham8099]

car is absolutely beautiful

[@BlueCivicHybrid]

I need this car in my life now!!

[@mattknight6691]

That may be cutest car I've ever seen.

[@justmechanicthings]

Oh Derek! With all your free revving of your cars the neighbours must think you have ties with the Bosozoku

[@gadgetguy99]

I heard 1300cc and thought hayabusa swap

[@pensive69]

yeah maybe the neighbors would really complain about THAT....

[@Zenitvk]

Astonishing one. Happy you to meet such a car. )

[@BuiltForSpeed]

Beautiful car and beautiful color

[@jeffbarton3353]

love it. Its ironic that a japanese built show car has the best car audio available at the time--old school American made. Those were the days

[@user-nm9vs1zc3y]

4:46 that door closing sound is nice

[@nismokali]

I've never heard of this car. So cool looking!!

[@MrTruth111]

74 neighbours didnt like this:) awesome car!!

[@nedflanders3418]

I feel like it would make a really interesting drag car

[@gregoryballestero4369]

No way autocross that lil bitch

[@ramivalencia]

I wish they made them in left hand drive config and were sold here in the states. I would consider buying one at or below $10K.

[@Rc-Mad-Ness]

the amp is a really high end and cost $1500 And the PG behind the seat are hard to find and are also high end $1000 and can go for more ...a lot of money has been but into that car .....not my style but still sick ..id lov the stereo amp set up a lone.....

[@eliteshooter8711]

Who came from Samcrac

[@LuisRamirez-ln3cj]

You're the only sheep around here. Most of us saw this video years ago.

[@eliteshooter8711]

Luis Ramirez Not the only one whenever there are 39 likes bud

[@nitro2ken]

@@eliteshooter8711 Guilty!

[@RichardSalmore]

@samcrac Huge potential for your baby blue wife-mobile😇

[@Desperado23]

this car is Dope AF

[@Blaqs1]

Super nice, great buy for the buyer!

[@jrpipe2845]

Excelente! No tenia conocimiento que existía este modelo

[@SevenDeMagnus]

Nicely designed. Needs more LCD panels on the dashboard.

[@ThierryTheuns]

I like how you pronounced Mooneyes. Especially because the logo is a pair of eyes.

[@DoRC]

If that engine was built and tuned properly with a nice high compression I have to imagine it's putting out more than 100 hp.

[@geogmz8277]

I don't see me driving it but the car is gorgeous.

[@PacificCoastAuto]

More people need to be like you instead of hating on cars. Thanks Mr. Geo Gmz

[@HashCracker]

I find this car so satisfying! I like the feeling of having never seen that make + model before now, and yet its in a state of extensive modification that made me perceive it as more modern, honestly I thought it was some little "foreign" car from around 2007 at first lol. I like the audio setup especially the equalizer and also the crossovers mounted on the doors. That stuff doesnt help with the power issue of course, obviously it needs more and as such the first thing id do is swap something small and mighty in there and say fuck it, maybe a big turbo with a honda stuck to it HELL YA BROTHER they look like a fun build

[@charged]

Interesting car. It seems odd to me that they painted the headlight rings, but left the tail/turn signal light rings in the rear chromed.

[@CrazedSymptoms]

That’s the coolest figaro ever

[@antwonkyle292]

This is it chief!

[@justmechanicthings]

Fantastic little car, as if the car was lacking in character to begin with! bonkers little thing!

[@dsworks9760]

awesome vid as always.. keep up the good job

[@MikroZoo]

it'd be awesome if the old owner kept in contact with the new owner

[@KarinoChan182]

I think I can recall seeing this at a Japanese Auction Site Facebook page Awesome car though

[@NextDoorGuy]

For the wheels deal, I'd put some hayashi racing CR 14's on there. Damn that would look god.

[@racheldawn2259]

what a beautiful car

[@nathanlong8295]

I would've loved to have this car.

[@chefgiovanni]

WE were waiting for a start up.

[@markletts2000]

Someone put some love into that,.nice style🇬🇧🙂

[@T0PzKiNG]

so beautiful and classic

[@Daniel28021991]

Looks very cool

[@pedromolina9558]

I love this car

[@LectronCircuits]

Wheels are definitely too big. Otherwise, very cute car. Cheers!

[@johnwayne2103]

Cute car. I like it!

[@hernandezjesse2673]

Original or all tricked out? The Figaro is a beautiful compact car.🚗 I can imagine my self in one. Driving along the PCH on a summer day. Here in California a true head turner. Wish I had one.

[@BoltRM]

Cool but I much prefer the original styling which looks so great.

[@sonofevil77]

Good God that's beautiful!

[@Patchuchan]

I wonder how difficult it would be to change the final drive ratio in the transaxel in one of those so you can keep the larger tires?

[@diarmuidmarsden7752]

Kinda makes me want to mod a figaro...

[@jdmr1c3ing]

Diarmuid Marsden please no

[@nathanlong8295]

Diarmuid Marsden it's quite rare are you sure?

[@crisrose9707]

thats such a neat car.

[@cyclonicleo]

Not my cup of tea (I prefer performance with stealth) but this is going to give the new owner a lot of fun!

[@Baerchenization]

Your car knowledge let you down there... it is a classic roof construction called Landaulet. ;)

[@PacificCoastAuto]

Whoa... Landu-what?

[@Baerchenization]

A close relative of the Cabru-what soft tops ;)

[@ldmcnutt]

Cool little car. But I had to laugh on so many levels: 1) that someone would swap a 76 hp turbo engine to a 76 hp n/a engine. 2) That someone would put so much time and effort into a 77 hp car. 3) that someone would put so many high dollar items like ITB's and air suspension on on a $15,000 car. 4) That someone would put so many high dollar items into it, but then not regear it to make it usable. 5) That your neighbors would call the police on a car who's loudest engine character is the ticking of fuel injectors. 6) How far we have come since 1991. Compare this to the new fiesta RS, making 245 hp with 16. liters.

[@sippinlosses]

I've been wanting to head to VA lately for a rhd figaro

[@ZaZiVagyoK]

Awesome little car. :)

[@melchizedeckbalthazar323]

thumps app fir the car wish to get one like this

[@gregoryballestero4369]

Under 100hp! looks like it would be a blast to drive with say 150-180 hp Edit:this thing needs like a 14" rim with slightly oversized tires fitted

[@Squidhead]

First time seeing a modded Figaro and I can see why some people would be turned off by it, but I think it all looks really freaking cool.

[@kaitlynmalone423]

I found this for sale in Jacksonville Florida

[@shattered831]

19th, oh wait it doesn't matter. Cars badass tho!

[@XxStreetShredderxX]

Awesome car!

[@chucklberry]

I think I prefer the wheels that were on it before.

[@BeastPieDie]

Thats one cool car.

[@christopherhylton8569]

Nice car i love it. Figaroooo

[@coreyblake2110]

Dam this thing is a beast, I just uploaded my video of something a little more original. Awesome car though

[@rmp5s]

Oh my God, this thing is SO COOL!!! What'd it end up selling for!?

[@ThePorkTree]

i THINK its moon eyes, rather than mooneys. I could be mistaken, though!

[@benas2816]

This car is awesome, wonder how much did it cost for the new owner

[@TheGoldcolor]

very nice car

[@A861967]
