It's a Samurai with a Jeep hood.
I'd wheel the piss out of that thing.

The Rocsta looks like it has YJ flares and side steps (teh spot for a side market light, but no light???) and the Retona looks like it has a Liberty nose and hood. Note that this was 1996.
So on that Liberty nose, who copied who?
Weird.

I like how jeep was trying to sue hummer because they thought that hummer was trying to copy them with the slotted grill but what about this company?

If you thought that one was good, have you seen a SsangYong Korando Dong A? Yes, that's right a real Dong! Seems like the Koreans have had a long-time love affair with the US Army Jeeps since the Korean War fifty some years ago. The Ssang Yong Dong a is a Jeep wanabee with an Isuzu diesel engine. It looks like a real Jeep YJ except the windshield is too tall. Ssang Yong has a working relationship with Mercedes Benz and they have some really high quality vehicles like the new Korando with a 2.9L 5 cylinder turbo diesel made by Mercedes Benz.

The body looks like a crappy old YJ or CJ, while the grill looks like something that would be on the next gen Wrangler or a concept...

The front turn signals look like they came off the top of a bus.
It's better than a tracker.

I would love to have some little mercedes diesel powerd soft top........ they are pretty ugly though.... a large part of the design may actually be jeep or suzuki.... I know that jeep hongkong, korea or something like that... seen an xj with a new front( kind of looks like a escelade), but old (pre 96) rear. companys will buy old designs and probably tooling... usually overseas

might be ugly but who cares, there won't be one straight piece of sheetmetal on it after a few years of wheelin'
let me get this straight, KIA of all manufacturers has a straight axle leaf spring setup front and rear on a small two door suv platform and they dont sell it in america, that makes americans pretty :rainbow:

Under the 6 slot grille is a two slot horizontal grille, like a toyota landcruiser!
And, boggers backwards work well in rocks!
