  • So me and Beng went on a day out with the Honda S660. Super fun, super impractical, super awesome. You buy this car, you're within the top ranks of car enthusiasts. The likes who buys Lotus Elise, the likes who buy Toyota Seras, the likes who kept a Karmann Ghia, the likes who kept a Porsche 356.

      I like the idea of the Car but I think it could use a 100 HP engine (maybe 4 cylinder with a high rev limit) to make it more interesting.
      The car is very flick-able, but it is lacking storage space.

    Way way back in the 60s, there are small Italian cars like this. It's officially a roadster since it has 2 seats, and most often used in leisurely drives (or picking up a girlfriend.). It's nice that it's becoming a thing again and that Japan is doing it.
    Most probably kei car racing will be the next thing to happen.

    Interesting to compare the S660 with the 1991 Honda Beat, which was conceptually very similar. The engine accessibility in the S660 is a huge improvement (you had to unbolt a cover under the parcel shelf to get to the engine in the Beat), but I think if anything the luggage space and general practicality was better in the Beat - not itself a particularly practical car either. (Although I did use one as daily transport for more than 10 years - so it IS possible.) Good fun.
