the interior looks the same as the opirus. the body looks a LOT better, imo, but still lacks in originality.

The Setena is the Mazda 929 in Japan.




In the USA it was sold from 1992 to 1995 in that form. Rear wheel drive with a 3.0 liter V6 making 193 hp. It also had 4-wheel steering.

Kind of popular in the 'hood because it looks expensive but can be bought used for pretty cheap.

so then, what is the opirus and what isn't the opirus? i'm a little confused what you're trying to say. it really doesn't seem like the car in the opirus pictures is a mazda 929 (setena).
