I had this car back in 1993... its a honda and never came to US.
Honda is releasing a new model of this in 2004 for the 1st time in US. This is the one i had tho.....

Hmmm... Is that the Jazz ??

I still want a Honda pickup:



but I would settle for a honda 600 (sedan or coupe):





all of the above are aircooled, and with 600cc's of power I'm sure that they would kick ass in the 1/4 mile

I kinda knew know one would know the name./Its a Honda City

I believe it's called Jazz.

It's 3 cyclinder with 66hp. I saw it Hong Kong.

Vtec.net reports that the jazz may be coming to the usa in 2004.

If we are talking about the jazz you can learn more about it here:

Oh... and the Honda microcars that I posted pics of have about 42hp at 6600rpm, but they only weigh about 1300lbs,so they would do the 1/4 mile in about 20seconds

Purplehaze, sorry 'bout hijacking your thread.

I meant hijacking 'cause of the old aircooled honda pics

I think it's kinda wierd/interesting that the "city" has an english name for a car sold in the non-usa markets. I like that sort of stuff, like when Chevy couldn't understand why the Chevy Nova didn't sell well in Mexico. No Va means "No Go" in spanish

There is a Japanese honda van called the "Love Step" I think.

It's nice to see some of these cars from other markets make it into the US market (like the european accord, to be named TSX here).

I just like weird "little" cars, but then again I like aircooled VW's too

...ahhh.. wait... I'm surposed to be talking about the jazz/city right....
