Just thought some of you Honda owners would like to see this.

A shot of my Honda AN600, back in the early 70's. This vehicle was
one of the first 200 Honda cars ever imported into the USA. I bought
it at Honda of Santa Ana in California in late 1970 or early 71. It
was sold as a 1971 model year.

It had a 598 cc. motorcycle engine, top speed just over 80mph, better
downhill with a tailwind. It weighed about 1300 lbs., and cost about
a dollar a pound at the time.

There was no fanfare when these cars arrived in the US, they just
slowly began to appear on the roads. When I first started driving
it, some people refused to believe it was a Honda. "Honda doesn't
make cars!" was a common remark.

There's an unusual story involving how I first saw the car, but I'll
spare you, unless there's any interest.
