In the late 80's, I saw an imported car which had windows that came half way down the doors. The rest of the car was a normal small coupe. I've never seen one again, and didn't see the make, but it looked Japanese.
The nearest style would be a Mazda 323 or Nissan 100 NX, and was probably a far eastern version. It wasn't a Toyota Sera, as that has a glass roof, rather than the lower doors but obviously from that era and style. Any ideas?
