In the 1970s perception of Japanese cars in America was that they were only a challenge to Detroit in the subcompact market. But cars like this and the Honda Accord were early indicators that Japan intended to take on American brands in all market segments. Curbsideclassic.com described this car as dull but reliable, noting, "amidst a sea of self-destructing Vegas and Volares, that did have its charms."
I doubt this car was originally sold with the Japanese-style way-up-front side-view mirrors; the owner probably added them.
