    incredible video with Jay Leno and his S600

    video is incredible, not only of the restoration, but of him driving it and winding it out. just mind blowing, sounds exacly like a tiny formula 1 car.

    It's about a 12 minute video, and I just sat here and watched it three times in a row, once he gets it warmed up, crank up the sound when he winds it out. WOW!! http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/cars/H...00_shell.shtml

    When I saw "S600" I thought of a big Mercedes. I'm so in love with those old Honda Roadsters. They are so awesome.

    and almost 10000 rpm redline lol he said it would run up to 11 with no problem. crank needle roller bearings. I love the sound, you see where some of the cues for the s2000 came from, but it's not even close as far as being this cool.
