At a car show today and I came across these two beauty's....






Not sure if you guys can see which cars these are so I'll leave it to you to guess!

Also check out this car, I bet none of you know what car it is...

rp_guy

and what does this have to do with a CL?

and you think no one knows what a bricklin is?

Nersh7

Damn haha well never mind then I'm obviously to young haha, I ne'er said it has anything to do with a CL if you feel like you really have to send a mod a PM and get them to move it.
I just thought it was cool and you guys would appreciate the honda's

I took a interest in this the other day.
Not that I would buy it but I had a thought of getting a j32 in there and staying with a (custom) rwd drivetrain would be cool.
And specially it's a drop top.
I know,I know, I have a colorful imagination.

This forum is getting so out of hand its not even funny. I used to look at this place as a board for classy Acuras but now it's just turning into a trashy civic/prelude/del sol board, with trash talkers everywhere. So sad.

MTEAZY

So civics and preludes are for trashy people..?

phile

what was happening there, appears a goat mascot is walking around in that on epic.

You're gonna call me out? Look at the 2nd post there slick. And by the way, your 2003 acura isnt very classy by todays standards. I had one, and I sold back in 2009.

PortlandRL

Yeah...but you didn't see all of his mods and the fact that it's low miles.

MarbleGT

Dude joined in '09 and thinks its gotten bad since then? lol.

Leave if you arent happy.

To OP....sweet looking cars. I had no idea what that red car was.

kthxbye.

Shoofin

Love those Honda's...Thanks for sharing, OP.

And for the rest of you in this thread even thinking about bashing, don't go there..

charliemike

Love that the OP thinks the world started in 1991.

neuronbob

Shoofin has handled the modding part here, so I will only add:

THANK YOU OP for these pics. The S800 coupe is sexy. I WANT ONE.

neuronbob

Here's a video of a working S800. I WANT ONE! It sounds just like my S2000, its grandson.

Here's hoping Honda doesn't wait another 30 years to make another S series car!

lets not go there ppl's


Nice pics OP!

Mr Marco

Nice. And I thought that the Japanese had stole their ideas from the Italians. Form the looks of these lines and the dates on the Honda S500, it looks to be the other way around.


1963 Honda S500


1974+ Fiat 124 spider

Hapa DC5

Can the average American Ass fit in one of those things?

Mr Marco

lol, not mine.

I love the way they look. But damn I've seen them in person and they are TINY.

You can but they are very hard to find in the States. They only sold them in Japan and the ones who had them imported in the States are the OG Japanese Honda guys that had to make cold air intakes out of hollowed logs in the 1950's to make their a-tec's keep up with traffic.

So what's the red car?

^^^ It's a Bricklin.

Haven't seen one of those in a really long time.

As others have mentioned, it's a Bricklin. The Bricklin was made in Canada by Malcolm Bricklin, an automotive entrepreneur (many feel differently). If I recall correctly, around 2500 were made, starting with an AMC 360 V8, and then followed by a Ford 351. Those lovely gullwing doors weigh over a hundred pounds each (insert red text "lovely"). Eventually the public had enough of Mr. Bricklin's interpretation of a car, and he promptly skipped the country, owing the Canadian government about 23 million. Bricklin eventually redeemed himself by offering another stellar automotive gem to the American public. That lovely offering was the Yugo.

Awesome cars. I've seen a few at dealerships but never one in that good shape on the road.

Thanks for that Terry. I find myself learning something new from so many of your posts.

teranfon

No problem. Since about the age of eight I've been cramming myself full of weird and fascinating (and a lot boring) automotive facts.

Legend2TL

Great pictures of the S500 and S800, I've only seen a S600 and that was decades ago.
