What Do You Want To Know About the Honda S660?
What Do You Want To Know About the Honda S660?-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:53

Konnichiwa, ! I picked this guy up earlier today and will be living with it for a few days. At last, you’ll get a Jalopnik Review of Honda’s new micro-sports car. As this is a car Japan selfishly keeps to itself and does not export (officially), tell me what you want to know more about it.

This isn’t my first experience with the S660. I had a short drive in one back in 2015 after it was first launched. After seeing the concept car at that year’s Tokyo Auto Salon I knew I had to try one out. But I’m willing to take one for the team and try the S660 again to let you know more about it. You’re welcome, Americans.

The car Honda Japan have very kindly lent me is the top spec Alpha trim painted in a lovely Premium Beach Blue Pearl color. It’s only available as a soft-top targa body style. It’s a six-speed manual.

You also get the choice of a CVT, but why would you?

The S660 is powered by a humble 660cc three-cylinder turbo unit. Power is rated at a thundering 64 horsepower and torque is an earth-shaking 77 lb-ft. It’s all part of the Kei-car regulations this car falls under, hence the yellow number plates.

Prices start from ¥1,980,000, or about $17,780. So, what would you like to know more about Honda’s pint-sized sports car and what should I include in the review?

At $950, Would You Go All-In On This 1984 Plymouth Colt GTS Turbo Project?
One of the calling cards of today’s Plymouth Colt is its “Twin Stick” overdrive gear change, which gives the car eight speeds going forward and two in reverse. Let’s see if this project car has anything else to offer. Just as Goldilocks discovered when appropriating Papa Bear’s lifestyle and...

At $18,500, Would You Lean Toward Buying This 2022 Ford Mustang?
Today’s Mustang is being sold by a towing yard, which means it’s probably a lien sale. Let’s see if this clean title convertible is priced to put a new buyer on the hook. The general consensus on last Friday’s was that it would be the perfect car for someone...

Which One Of You Suckers Is Going To Pay Over $32,000 For A 25-Year-Old Toyota 4Runner
The (and Tacoma) have a death grip on used values. It’s been this way for years. Go ahead, go try and buy any TRD trim that’s a couple of years old; it’ll cost you as much as a new one — not that you could buy a new one...

At $8,600, Would You Go Topless In This 1994 Cadillac Eldorado?
The seller of today’s Caddy claims they should be selling it at auction but says who’s got time for that? Let’s see if we have the time for this custom convertible at its non-auction price. Many of you agreed that the $950 asked for yesterday’s was “chump change.” Even...

At $5,900, Is This 1984 Nissan 720 4X4 A Solid Deal?
According to its seller, today’s Nissan 4X4 shows “pride of ownership.” Let’s see if it would take swallowing one’s pride to pay its asking price. Opinions were split on how well the design of yesterday’s has held up over the years. Some of you commented that the design still...

Let’s cut right to the chase: buying a is not a good idea unless you have deep enough pockets for the upkeep. For those not in the know, they’re sirens. They draw you in with their premium Italian image and sweet songs of and then go in for the...
