yeah, freely revving engine, drop top, reliable... plus VBH had one and I am strangly attracted to her sometimes!?!!
Great car at the right time on the right bit of road, however, it is all about revs
OK if your short !! built for Japs.
Ibis white Revo S3 and now matching Vivaro LWB HR 2900 :-)
Has to be a cool car it revs to nearly 9000 rpm thats cool
My opinion is that Honda engines are great. Respect for these high revs engines.

I'm 6'3" and found I didn't have enough legroom in it.
Shame...as I really fancied one.

I love them. Nearly bought a white 04 plate import that'd had turbo conversion last yr. Was a really good price. It'd been involved in a very minor accident. Just needed a tiny bit of panel work/paint.
I went home to think about it. Phoned about about 2hrs later to say i'd have it & somebody else had been & put a deposit on it shortly after i'd left!! Bloody typical!!
Wasn't fussed for 2 long tho as I ended up buying the Evo shortly after![]()

You have to respect the Great Engine and Faultless Reliability. Does that make it cool? or perhaps to boring?
I think it's cool, it is a thinking mans roadster.
One of the few soft tops a bloke can get away with driving imo. Great car!
