@@Waybeforethefame If you raised money from subs I think it could be doable to at least get it on a ballot in NY. You could work with other big channelsthat feature content on JDM and other foreign cars, like TFLClassics, Mighty Car Mods, Donut, and maybe even Doug DeMuro. Could probably even get the importers involved, they stand to make $$.
Quite a few over here now in Europe of the S660 they started production in 2015. We got the Beat from New shame we have to import them when they were new.
Appearently the S660 was designed for the body panels to be easy swap and they aren't supposed to provide structure. Honda dealers will swap out the complete body and call it a "S660 Neo Classic". I dream that someone will make Honda Beat panels for the S660 and use the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act to make US replicas of Honda Beats using an S660 as the base car...
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the S660 is in the very rare 'perfect vehicle' category. It's fun, it's exciting, it's a kei and it's a joy machine.
I've tried. Can't even get one newer than 25 years on a ship. If it somehow does manage to get on a ship, you'll lose your money because gov't will just impound forever or destroy it. Unfortunately the only options are raising enough money en masse to lobby gov't into changing the law, or owning property in Canada. On the latter, you're shit out of luck too because a law just went into effect this year banning the purchase of property in CA to non-citizens. 1 more reason to move to Japan xD.
That S660 is just incredibly sexy!! If I was able to import that, I would be set for life. My dream of having a sports car would be just complete, even if on paper its tecnically not a fast sports car, but looks alone and sound, is just awesome enough. I loved how the interior looked and those mats seem to glow, I don't know if its camera trick, but it looks Hot!
100%. Shame they have now stopped production of the S660. But yeah, that's gonna be a classic for years to come. If I had the beans, definitely would import it here to my country. Thanks to your content though, trust me, Kei cars are very popular now. Just a bit expensive, after they have slapped the import charges and customs clearance. Still they are so useful and Cost effective and reliable.
If your government tells you which cars you are allowed to buy, then you do not live in a free country. I do not live in a free country. By this metric, Canada is freer than the US... by ten years.
Red interior under glow looks awesome.
I hope things change. I would love to have a 660 but don't think I will want to wait til I am in my 80's. ☹
Once this channel gets bigger I’ll make my way to the government and take action 😈

Awesome trip buddy! Thanks for sharing man. So much cool stuff.
You bet!
that is such a cool car. glad I found your channel ! you made me want to get into jdm imports like kei cars and such.
Welcome aboard! KEI IS THE WAY
Cap needs that AE dealer plate on the front...just say'n
If anything JDM Hawaii lol
That Honda 660 is Fire....Don't tell anyone I said that.
Honda fan boy… 👁️ 👁️
Well I do still love a classic XR600..sooo guilty of that@@Waybeforethefame

Thanks for the info I had no idea this is the first one I’ve seen this detail
You can make it happen if you really want to, you’ll have my money
I mean technically you can import it under "show and display" @@yamkaw346
Bro that is 🔥🔥🔥
EXTREMELY
Yooo the S660 is sick. I really love the Copen though, the first gen!
The GR Copen is very nice
Rx7 In Japan Is 3.9Million Yen. That Is Like $32.000 Us Dollars Right There And I’m Talking Bout The Blue Rx7 Right Next To The Blue S15
Yeah the window piece saying about that same price

Idk about perfect its still a 2 seater with no trunk space like the beat lol
AZ-1 is still better.
ABSOLUTELY NOT@@nunyabusiness896
@@Waybeforethefame Absolutely yes. Try to fix all of that modern electronic bs in the S660 when it breaks.
Sadly I think they're going to keep restricting the Kei cars...
But the s660 is so nice
Kei in this case doesn't matter. Any vehicle import needs to be 25+ years old which is the wait for the S660
I hope not
I wish we had the glow plates in America.
Same were so boring over here
If Mazda is mad enough to make a new Autozam, I’d import one laws be damned.
Mazda or Suzuki Need to bring back the cappuccino AZ1 is probably too expensive to do now

S660 is TOP 😍😍
02:06 That awful wing on the S2000. A copy of a Porsche with with intakes but they are closed. What is the point? 🤣
I actually like it lol
not beating the Honda fanboy allegations
True...... but I can't get this car for another like 20 years so its okay
Why aren’t these honda s660’s legal here in USA yet? I wish USA start building these these type of Honda’s here seriously 😢
in 2039 well be able to get them lol
@@Waybeforethefame 😯 that’s crazy
