I was searching for a Cappuccino for sale (hey, a guy can dream, right?) and this picture popped up. Is this a concept car or what?
Anyone recognize this Suzuki?
The picture link is broken.
I'm guessing here, but could you be possibly talking about this car?
If so, that's the Autozam AZ-1. It's actually a Suzuki-engineered vehicle and was also called the Suzuki Cara.

I got too curious, used my Mod powers to edit your comment, and checked the broken pic link. It was not for an actual image file so I saved it and uploaded it.
Now we can all see it... and I was also wrong about it being an Autozam.
My guess is that it's just a totally unofficial fictional computer graphic rendering. It's even stamped "Digimod Championship 2009 Round 2" which seems to suggest it was a computer graphic arts competition submission.
In essence, this Audi R8 Spyder-like Suzuki is very likely a totally fictional creation of one graphic artist.
The closest thing I've ever seen as an actual Suzuki concept car to this rendering is the Suzuki GSX-R/4.

Yeah, the design would be for a mid-engine, rear wheel drive like the MR-S.
Interestingly, the Autozam was also a mid-engine RWD, but was a gull-wing kei-car.
It basically had an exotic-car design with the MR gull-wing layout but had a 660cc engine like a JDM kei-car.
Looks like Suzuki was at it in the 80's too with their Suzuki RS/1.

looks like an RS4 with a Swift Sport front end...
I recently saw an ad for an Autozam for sale here in the States! I'd love one, but alas, I gots a lack of fundage...

That would be one rad roadster if Suzuki produced it. Too bad there isn't a market for these cars anymore since all the manufacturers stopped production of them.
