Honda S800: Geschichten, Daten, Sonstiges

When the Honda S800 Coupe was introduced in Germany in 1966, many car journalists were surprised. The engine of this small sports car produced 67 hp from just 791 cc, which was the power of a race car when calculated per liter of displacement.
Initial skeptics were soon proven wrong. The four-carburetor engine was very reliable. The S800 was also sold in a stylish convertible version. Today, Honda S800 models are sought-after rarities.
This publication honors this fantastic and groundbreaking vehicle. The author offers insights with expertise and humor, covering the history of the Honda S800, technical details, and a variety of previously unpublished images. A successful work that does justice to the Honda S800.
