2. Mazda AZ-1

The Mazda AZ-1 is a kei-class marvel that proves big thrills can come in small packages.
With its striking gullwing doors and mid-engine layout, this sports car was built between 1992 and 1994.
The AZ-1’s 657cc engine may be modest, but its featherweight construction ensures engaging, nimble handling.
Often eclipsed by the likes of the Autozam AZ-1 and Suzuki Cappuccino, the Mazda AZ-1 has earned a cult following for its unmistakable, quirky character.
