It´s a Golf `Strawberry Bucket´ Convertible, why else would it have a differently colored roof?


Because it's custom-painted. :p

Back to the identification - I am aware that some parts resemble a Peugeot 106, but overall it much better matches a Golf/Rabbit. And we have to keep in mind, that this game takes place in the USA. I'm voting Golf/Rabbit.

Most tiny hatchbacks' bodies look almost alike. I prefer to think its Peugeot 106 upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Peugeot_106_rear_20070609.jpg

One thing I can say it that its definitely not a Fiat Panda, the Fiat is to boxy, the windows are different, the wheel wells are to square, and the rear end is shaped different...Also definitely not a Peugeot 205, the windows are different, and the Peugeot is to modern in style...I also don't see much Renault Le-car either, the wheels are really the only thing that matches a Renault Le-car, the Renault Le-car's rear end is also much to slanted. Now, the main reason why I think its a Subaru Rex and not a Volkswagen Golf MK1, is because the Volkswagen Golf has a less slanted rear end, and a longer front overhang. While the door, shape of the front end, and shape of the rear end look quite close to a Rex i.drom.ru/~autovl/catalog_photos/subaru/rex/subaru_rex_2570.jpg I do understand that the taillights look different from a Rex, but I think there just aftermarket.

Newport not so much, body shape doesn't match.


yep, the roofline doesn't match the newport but its got the overall chrysler corp early '70s fuselage styling. I can go with demon/duster although it looks like a full-size and not a compact, which the dart/demon/duster was, but then again that doesn't matter too much with unlicensed cars hehe.

I'd suggest leaving this as "Unknown" until a front view of the car can be provided. Given the fact that every other stock car featured so far is based on an american vehicle, I highly doubt that this is a Fiat Panda. I've seen some dev interviews and it's probably worth pointing out that the demo derby cars aren't licensed, so this could very well be a Golf with altered styling.

By the way, how on earth are people thinking it's similar to a Panda anyway? Even if you took all the plastic trim and bumpers etc off the real thing, the only thing that these two vehicles would have in common is that they're both hatchbacks. The Panda is much boxier.

Exactly! It's much more boxier, and it has square fenders, and the windows on the Golf/Rabbit are just like the ones on this car, and it also has circular fenders......so who's the idiot now, Jam?

Definitely not a camaro, those wouldn't stand a chance in a demo derby
heres a better pic:


Roof line seems reminiscent of a '71-74 plymouth duster, but overall seems to be based on some kind of full size chrysler such as a '72 Chrysler Newport
