    yes, very quick cars they are, allot smaller than the punto aswell, as with all jap engines easily tuneable and can be very fast.

    Yep them little things can be tuned very easily to, oh and they are a 1.3. Theres a couple round my way a Glanza EP91 and an (EP82 which is like a cruise missile 200+bhp according to the owner, it blows flames, pops an bangs an all sorts!)

    i've always wanted one of them!

    If its any consolation, I heard they're worse than the GT for handling?

    They're surprisingly fast, very light and a 'modern' (compared to the GT) 16v engine. Easily tunable to 200bhp, I remember talking to a lad running around 200/200 at USC one year and he was getting early-mid 13's.

    I would have a glanza as a run about if I needed one.

    He must have studied harder than you.... chose a superior car in every aspect, and then handed you your ass

    Not really, the handling is just as bad if not worse than a GT's. Driven 3 whilst looking at them about a year ago or so. Didn't get one because I need to fit two grown blokes in the back a couple of times a week and the interior is absolutey GASH. Punto's aren't great but I nearly clawed my own eyes out after sitting in a Glanza for more than five minutes.

    Getting really common round here too.

    I do like them though.
