Yes, It is an Imai. I think it is out of production, though. If you are looking for something like that, why don't you get the Tamiya Golf 1? It has a very similar body.

Isnt the Revell "Hot Tuner" Golf a MkI ? And it comes with body kits.and an engine. maybe this could be used with another kit as well though i find Revells scale to be smaller than import models.

Also, AMT produced a "Cafe Racer" (fancy term for SCCA club racer) kit of the Volkswagen Rabbit, which was the MkI Golf in the states.

It's a pretty good kit with full detail. Certainly one to locate.
