- ❝Bold looks. Dashing curves. Insane power coupled with insane acceleration bundled with insane technology served with an insane price. Of course, that's what we've all come to expect from the Japanese making another supercar. There is no such thing as limitation, nor there is such thing as boundaries for mad men like the folks at Annis. Case in point: if the reviewers even say it's too hot to handle, you know you've done something right.❞
- — Legendary Motorsport description.
The Annis Kamikaze is a high-performance, concept prototype car in HD Universe.
Design[]
The Kamikaze bears a sleek and aggressive appearance with its design heavily inspired by the Mazda Furai concept car. Its grille bears a resemblance to the Mazda Taiki but with a softer, tamer look, while the headlights are similar to those from the Mazda Ryuga.
The Kamikaze has a noticeably smooth yet aggressive look, borrowing designs from Mazda's Nagare concepts of the time. The side vents feature gentle yet sharp lines and curves which resemble those of the Aspark Owl's front vents. The wing and lower part of the rear are also borrowed from the Aspark.
The Kamikaze also features a lot of round but sharp creases, most evident near the rear of the car, which could be likely based on the Lamborghini Egoista.
Moving to the rear, the Kamikaze also features a similar arrangement to the Furai, including the middle part, which is influenced by the Pagani Huayra BC but with exhausts moved down. The diffuser blades and upper part of the diffuser come from the Ferrari FXX K Evo.
One of the few standouts of the Kamikaze are its front and rear lights, just like the Furai. The front's are LED daytime running lights which connect below the grille in one continuous curve. They are always on whether day or night, and they emit a bluish-green glow. The rear's lights are similar too, only they don't have a main assembly, instead they are multiple lights seemingly connected to each other, and these emit a red-orange glow.
On the inside, the Furai uses the Scramjet interior, but with the steering wheel and dials taken from the Locust.

Performance[]
The Kamikaze has tremendous acceleration and top speed, which is in fact due to its rotary engine and light weight. Handling is less responsive than on cars such as the Splinter, but oversteer/understeer is less of a problem for the Kamikaze. The spoiler and active aero also helps it with downforce.
Noticeably, around the corners is where the Kamikaze slightly loses its edge, as traction and grip however are low compared to other supercars. The Kamikaze's cornering is a bit soft even for the class, which could be a deal-breaker for those looking for a true race car. Where the Kamikaze excels is in sheer straight line speed, but around hairpins, even with the aforementioned downsides, are not too bad. Some types of corners even work well with how the Kamikaze's cornering works.
The Kamikaze also utilizes AWD, which helps the car maintain its control in corners, rainy weather and other situations. Similar to the Splinter, braking is also very good for the class and might just be one of the best. Crash deformation is above average, as the car is built on a reliable former-race-car chassis, however the purely carbon fiber bodywork is vulnerable to damage in some cases.
Locations[]
- Can be purchased from Legendary Motorsport for $2,455,000.
Trivia[]
- If the "Reliving the Renaissance" livery is equipped, there will be Japanese writing on the hood that literally translates as "kamikaze". There will also be number 66 decals on the hood and side of the car, the same number as the RE-7B.
- This, in fact, is a reference to the Furai having number 55 decals on its hood and side, as an homage to the 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning 787B racecar. This makes sense since both the Furai and 787B both have lore interpretations.
- The default radio station for the Kamikaze is Space 103.2.
