The Appeal
The Suzuki Cappuccino is one of the most characterful kei cars ever produced, a tiny, turbocharged, rear-wheel-drive roadster with a clever three-piece removable roof that allows for coupé, targa, and full convertible configurations. Produced in limited numbers between 1991 and 1997, these diminutive sports cars have developed a devoted following, and good examples are increasingly sought after.
This 1994 example has benefited from remarkably careful stewardship. Its previous owner, a mechanic by trade, kept the car for over 20 years and always stored it indoors. The current owner has continued this regime, garage-storing the Cappuccino for the past three to four years.
