Buying A Kei Car

[bugmenot]

Hi guys,

I just want to ask if kei cars (not those "multi-cab" ones) are available here in the philippines. i've seen some of them in the metropolis.

I want to have one of those because,

1. It is very economical (660cc and 22km/l)
2. It is small and compact (3.4m x 1.48m x 2m)
3. JDM Yo!

But i've some questions that's been bothering me about buying one of these on second-hand shops. i know there are no "brand new" keicars here.

What are the pros/cons of having a keicar here in the philippines?
What do i need to know about buying second hand kei cars?
Conversion?
Spare Parts?
Common Brand?
Where to Buy?
Any more info.

Thanks in advance.

Officially, maximum displacement for kei cars is 660cc so the Alto, at 800cc, is not one.
