I can't get more screen shots due to the fact I don't own the movie (I can re-rent it if I need too though), But you can see some scenes from the movie(including ones with this car) at about the 8:00 mark of this youtube video:

Excellent youtube link. From the photo above I thought it looked a bit like a Triumph Herald - right sort of size. Youtube footage suggests same sort if size as a Herald, but..... (1) very high bonnet (2) film is Japanese, so a domestic model would seem most likely. Car crashes and rolls in film to show underneath, but this looks like footage of a toy. Overall it looks as if they deliberately removed every clue, and possibly put in some false elements - perhaps the split screen or the rear fins.

Id also love to see it solved I wish I could figure out what it is possibly a Ford Anglia or a Trabint or a customized Datsun 310 Bluebird?

The last two definetely not, as this movie is from 1962.

I don't see Ford Anglia 105E - the rear window wouldn't fit the outline.

Maby some US car.

Definetely not. It's too small for that.

About as generic looking as it gets.
About the only thing distinctive is the rear fenders.

Eeeh, don't be too sure about that. Fintails are a popular extra to camouflage a prototype ;) Even nowadays - for example at the Mercedes Benz-prototypes, you can spot sometimes on the Autobahn nearby my home ;)
Really distinctive are the frontscreen, the wheelbase and the shape of the wheel arches.

Car is called (make) Tiger (model) Pioneer Sports and should have 5 stars - whole movie is about this car.

Could be disguised other car from the movie, Toyopet Crown (wheels, fender, shape of the rear lights): /vehicle_302623-Toyopet-Crown-RS20-1960.html

I think it is a Toyota Crown indeed. However, a different version (Deluxe), by the different side trim.

But where is differential? The rear axle looks rigid with any drive train element. FWD? :O :think:

It does appear to be a Crown
