Genki lists is as a 1994 for KB1 and a 1997 for KB2&3. Since the styling didn't change between September 1994 and April 1997, I'm just going to leave it as the developers listed it. Also note that in the rest of the world a new car introduced in September 1994 would be a 1995 model rather than 1994. The Japanese go by month and year rather than model year.

I think only in the United States (or perhaps North America) do they use the model year system. Here in Europe, whether a car is introduced in January 2016 or in December 2016, it will be called a 2016 car.

Seems fair, if the game states the car is a 1997 model, that is definite. You should probably also change the year to 1997 for the other games in the series.

This is the listing in the official Genki strategy guide for those who couldn't get the link to work

I did, thank you very much. Goo Net Exchange often puts the wrong year on cars, and your first link doesn't work.
www.carsensor.net/catalog/daihatsu/mira/F002/

This generation of the Mira was produced from 1994 until 1997. In 1995 the Mira Moderno was introduced, which was facelifted in 1996, and produced until 1998.
The Mira TR-XX was originally based on the Mira, but was facelifted in 1996 and until 1998 based on Mira Moderno.

I suggest that you, as an admin, ask why someone comes up with a certain identification instead of immediately accusing them of not doing any research.


Japanese manufacturers don't follow strict Western model years. If you check the link you posted more carefully, you'll see that the facelift didn't occur until May 1997. Any 1997 Mira built before that would have the old styling, such as the one in the goo.net link, which is from January 1997.

Please do your research before randomly changing things.
