Eh! Don't go for those Japanese knockoffs! get the real deal, at least a used one. It's way easier to find parts for too. Relatively easy to repair, too.
(For those not in the know, the Geo, and eventually Chevy, Tracker was a Chevy rebadge of the Suzuki Vitara, which were originally called the Sidekick stateside. Before that, it was the Samurai. They are no longer in production in this configuration.)
In the end, the Jeep is the one and only original. Find a cheap, dirty one without any real damage, get a repair manual, and spend a day cleaning it up. The modified equipment in your drawing leads me to believe you have strong enough, eve if basic, automotive and/or mechanical knowledge to do these things. Many wranglers can be found under $4k, going as little as $2k.
As for the drawing:
I like to draw cars myself, actually. I've found it difficult to make a convincing depiction of any of the open-top mini-utes.
Tips for cars in general:
1.Keep all denominations of pocket change on hand to trace as circles for wheels.
2. Look for a photo of it from the side, and try to seperate it in sections (cabin from body, wheel arches, doors, etc.) on tracing paper. You'll eventually get more or less proper proportions figured out by then, and then its just practice practice practice. My old art teacher always said, "Learning to Draw is learning to See." So really think about the shapes that make up a particular car and then think about their relative sizes to each other. For more detail, get an instructional book on drawing cars.
Finally, get a Deviant Art account for this sort of thing. Also, not to be rude, but there is a reason that the word "fur" is in this site's name.

1.) i would love to buy a real jeep but i have only worked one summer because of school and i spent most of my money fixing up my 1991 chevy caprice 9C1 so don't have 2K right now.
2.) i like the geo's because they are different
3.)this pic is from when i first started drawing at the beginning of this year
4.) i do have a deviant art account under the same username
5.) i but these up because a friend asked for them and people seemed to like the other pics like this i but up
overall thanks for the advice and i don't mean any thing a wrote above in a rude way and i do draw fur its just that i have been really busy and haven't had a chance to draw much
Thanks
