In order to widen the appeal of the Imp a Coupe version of the Imp was created in 1967. Imp California, The coupe bodyshell is similar to the standard body but features a more shallow-raked windscreen and rear window which, unlike that on the standard bodied cars, can not be opened. The attempt at a more sporty design did not translate into better acceleration or top speed figures and the aerodynamics of the standard saloon are actually slightly better. The new body style made its first appearance at the Paris Motor Show in October 1967, in the form of the Sunbeam Stiletto and Singer Chamois Coupe,
powered by a more powerful 51 bhp., twin-carburettor engine, from the Singer Chamois and Sunbeam Sport variants of the Imp, The coupe body had also appeared, with less powerful engines, in the Hillman Imp Californian announced in January 1967.

The Sunbeam featured servo brakes, late type suspension and quad head lamps, padded facia, leather steering wheel rim. black vinyl roof and radial ply tyres.

Launched as a Sunbeam in 1967 therefore many of the early reliability issues have been ironed out. Produced at Linwood, Scotland with the engine cast in Scotland, built up at Ryton, Coventry and returned to Scotland for fitment, increased cost which hurt its competitiveness against the Mini
