About Honda S660
Cool Little Sports Car! Honda S660
The Honda S660 is a two-seater mini sports car made by Honda. Even though it is a small car, it is packed with real sports car driving power! Its biggest feature is the "mid-engine" (MR) layout, which puts the engine behind the seats. Supercars like Ferraris use this same style, making it super great at taking sharp turns! You can manually remove the "roll-top" roof, so you can enjoy the open air while you drive. Sadly, they stopped making it in 2022, but it is still a famous car with lots of big fans today!
Name Origin and History
The "S" in the name of the Honda S660 shows that it carries on the "S" series, a sports car line that Honda has cherished for a long time. It was born in 2015, inheriting the spirit of the "S600" from the 1960s and the "Beat" that was popular in the 1990s. Sadly, they stopped making the Honda S660 in 2022, but it is still a special car loved by many people today.

- Side Air Intake: The hole behind the door (air intake) is an important spot that sends air to the engine. If you color this area dark black, it adds depth and makes it look real!
- Shiny Lights: Color the headlights with light gray or a tiny bit of blue. Leave a "white dot" to show light reflecting, and the headlights will look like they are glowing!
