The project leader prodigy of the S660, Ryo Mukumoto was 22 years old when he pitched the idea of returning the kei sportscar, in Honda's internal competition of sales pitches for future products. He became the youngest in Honda's history of lead engineers and Honda allocated him with other young members of the company to make his ideas come into reality. He owned an S2000 and like the Chief Engineer of the Toyota 86/GR Supra Tetsuya Tada, he realised that young people in Japan weren't interested in sportscars, so he wanted to reignite interest to those, by producing an affordable yet fun-to-drive sportscar. Type 'Honda S660 Ryo Mukumoto' to find out more about how this S660 came into fruition.

Mr. Murakami is a high school graduate. He did not go to college. But, he studied by himself in the company and also using his private time. When he won the competition, he was only 21 years old, then became the project leader to build brand new sports car, S660. We can say it this maybe another side of Japanese dream.

It's a damn shame Honda hasn't put these up for sale in the UK. The same reasons they are sold in Japan would also apply here as well. They work brilliantly on our country roads, they're efficient, small, great fun to drive and most importantly - affordable (if it were actually sold here that is). Maybe the suspension could use a re-work as we don't keep our roads as good as the Japanese do, lol.

Great video as always. I've loved these cars since I saw an article on them when they were first released in Japan. I guess nearest thing here is the Daihatsu Copen but that was discontinued many years ago in the UK and doesn't have the looks of this anyway. Hats off to the UK owners of the S660, I can't imagine it is an easy process of importing a car and getting it on the road here. Hats off to James for continuing to feature such a variety of cars on the channel, brand new Audi to Rover 75 to Honda S660... fantastic.

@NeonBlunders 4 года назад

It's really unfortunate that the UK market doesn't desire small sports cars like these, they're super fun and in my opinion suit the roads really well. Scott and I both had ours personally imported using a company called TorqueGT, who will import any you wish from Japan, as well as convert and register it for the roads which has made it rather easier for us!

@smilepermile888 4 года назад

@@NeonBlunders Thanks for providing your car to make this possible and I agree, many young enthusiasts tend to go for more practical turbocharged AWD hatchbacks that do 0-60 in under 5 seconds, over these pure two seater RWD sportscars. The good thing about the 2015+ ND generation Mazda MX-5s are that they tend to be pretty good for insurance compared to those hatchbacks because you see more elderly people or women driving them, hence the fewer crash rates. I would love to compare the ND MX-5 to a s660 someday!

@NeonBlunders 4 года назад

Oh totally! There's so much fun to be had with these, just like an MX5. If the practicality doesn't bother you they compare very closely I'm sure!

@user-ff2fi5kb2t 9 месяцев назад

S660 is my car. This car is very narrow and the engine is in the back so it's very hot. It also has low power, making it a pain to drive on the highway. However, it is faster than any other car on downhill slopes with a series of sharp curves, and can maneuver into narrow back alleys. It's a lot of trouble, but I plan to keep driving this car forever. Thank you for the great explanation!

@douglas_drew 4 года назад

My first VW was a 1959 36hp Beetle, the car that taught me to "row!" that shifter, me living in hill country. My first Honda was a 1973 Civic Sedan, the car that had me rowing with a Smile! I settled on Subaru 4wd/AWD since 1982 as the best overall for Northeast States' roads and winters, but I would absolutely love either one of these little blasters for quick grocery runs if they were available in LHD in America.

I'm sure this gives similar thrills and more. Had 130 on the digital dash on occasion, probably more like 120 really. If I won the lottery I'd track one down and restore it.

@jamisback1 2 года назад

The fact that Honda can still make a fun, high revving roadster back home gives me hope that a new S2000 has the potential to be pretty decent and close to the original's ethos. Not sure how that bodes for meeting emission standards here, but if they can make a 4 cyl turbo rev to 8k, that would be a dream.

^^ Exactly right. Seems silly most SUVs are being used to transport kids to school or do some shopping. Japan obviously has the Kei car system which brings about these cars. - Scott and I manage 45+mpg in these and they are effortless to drive. I do wish the UK had an equivalent system,

@dylanh1978 4 года назад

@@NeonBlunders Yeh, smaller cars are way more exciting to drive aswell, and because they are relatively cheap up to most SUV and saloons, you can go anywhere in them and give them a battering.

Japan is a similar size to uk and Tokyo has many parallels with the road size and right hand drive. Japanese cars designed for real driving and small tight roads work best here.
