The Festa Jaune from Tamiya's Mini Yonku (Mini 4WD) series.


Made in Japan

From Wikipedia:
"The Mini 4WD originated in Japan in 1982, when toy manufacturer Tamiya introduced Mini 4WD race cars. A Mini 4WD race car is a 1:32 scale kit featuring four-wheel drive powered by an electric motor using a pair of AA batteries. A single electric motor turns both axles. These kits snap and screw together without the need for glue.

A standard Mini 4WD vehicle is a made of plastic using a body-on-frame design. The chassis contains the primary components including the AA batteries, motor, gearing, propeller shaft, drive axles, and wheels. The body is purely decorative although some newer designs incorporate ducting to cool the motor. The body and chassis are made from hard plastics like ABS. Side rollers along the front, center, or rear of the vehicle are used to guide the vehicle around a U-shaped track."
