Dore

Pronounced (DURA), is a convertible version of the Le-Seyde. It was also a limited production model, produced in July 1991.[1][2]

The Dore was based on a Ford Mustang.[3] It also used the Mustang's 302 in3 (4.9 l) V8 Engine.

New Le-Seyde

The New Le-Seyde was introduced in late 2000; it is identical to the original Le-Seyde, with only a few minor cosmetic changes, but this model was based on the Nissan Silvia S15.[1]

Its engine was also from the Nissan Silvia S15, the SR20DE.
