Haha I get it. My brother is annoying about it, but my friends leave me alone, mostly. At least I picked a vehicle praised for it's auto. Now, trying to explain an auto 240z to the car community in the future, that might be tricky. I'll probably have to go into hiding.

Lost traction coming out of a turn in the drizzle today. Compared to the other two times I've lost traction while driving - in my old civic - She was really composed. Although i was still surprised.

What do you guys think of the Honda S660 Concept?






I don't mind it. I'm more curious as to what it will really look like and how it will perform if it makes it to production.

Is this gonna be one of the Kei car in JDM only? It looks pretty small and light. Almost like a MR2 to me.

EDIT: after some googling, if this car is in FR form, this car would be the spiritual successor of the Cappuccino in the 90's.

This is what I found so far on the car.

The Honda S660 Concept hints at the new face of Honda as the automaker rolls out its lineup for the 2013 Tokyo Auto Show.

The S660 Concept, a minicar with a 0.66-liter engine, is designed with the Japan market in mind.

It features the so-called "Solid Wing Face," where the headlights merge with the grille.

Honda calls the concept "an open-top sports-type mini vehicle." The S660 Concept bears a striking resemblance to the Honda EV-STER Concept that debuted at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Show. However, the latest concept features a traditional steering wheel, while the EV-STER sported twin joysticks.

The new Honda concept has been likened to the Honda Beat minicar as well, which featured a two-seat setup and side vents.

The upcoming Tokyo auto show will also be the setting for the world debut of the Honda N-WGN, the fourth model in the N Series of mini vehicles. The N Series is sold in Japan.

Honda also will display a version of the NSX sports car concept. U.S. consumers will probably do a double-take when they see the photos of the NSX, since it is wearing a Honda — not an Acura — badge. It is badged as a Honda in Japan because the Acura brand is not sold there.

Edmunds says: There is some media speculation that Honda may bring a version of the S660 Concept to the U.S., but with a bigger engine.

... Yes, this could be the new beat with the MR layout. I remember @ saw one in Vancouver some time ago and was quite interested on that car.

Just a refresher about what Honda Beat was: [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Beat"]Honda Beat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]
