Rare Short-Lived Classic Cars

Honda S500
Slightly larger and more powerful than the similar S360 roadster which never went into production.

The S500 was nevertheless a tiny car with a 531cc engine which could rev to 9500rpm.

This was heady stuff for 1963, when the S500 was launched. Honda, however, decided it could do better, and replaced it with the 606cc S600 in 1964.
