Dear mates, here we bring to you new car, road car, car history unicorn – all Japan supercars taht was forgotten in the sands of time – Jiotto Caspita!

It was 1988 when ideas of two gentlemen have reached the same point – to develop and build a supercar in Japan. The first one was Mr Yoshikata Tsukamoto – president of Wacoal Corp. – manufacturer of women apparel. The second one – Mr Minoru Hayashi – president of Dome Co. Ltd – a successful Japanese racing car developer and manufacturer.

A scratch-built model began its way in July, 1988 when Jiotto Inc. was established by Wacoal Corp. The research and manufacturing work was then trusted for Dome while the styling and design was taken by a new company – Jiotto Design – the only independent Japanese design studio at that time. Based in Kyoto, this division of the Jiotto brand was co-founded by Wacoal (60%) and Dome (40%). Its president was Mr Hayashi while Vice-President and Chief Designer was Mr Kunihisa Ito. At that time Jiotto Design was the only independent Japanese design studio.

Mr Ito was a leading force in the design development …… a Group C race car for public roads. Sleek, aerodynamic lines are well stressed in the first sketches of the proposed car. …..
