Hey there! The blue one was my car for 8+ years in Shinshiro, Aichi, Japan. What a car it was! I watched it roll over to all zeroes twice! It never left me stranded and served me well for the duration of my ownership. By the way, I was able to fit my wife, mom, brother, and dad (illegally in the 'trunk') in it. Fun fact(s): The car only came with a single speaker in the front left door, like a lot of kei trucks do. It's classified as a van because of the fold-flat rear seats. Which means the taxes and bi-yearly registration are as cheap as you can get a road car in Japan (to my knowledge). This also means that the 3-digit number at the top of the yellow license plate (standard kei jidosha/light car plate) starts with a '4' (referred to as 'yon nanbaa'/number four). Passenger-designated kei cars are limited to 4 adults and are referred to as 'go-nanbaa'/number five. The 13" wheels on it came stock on a Honda Life. The stock steelies were 12". I put a Sparco 2-spoke steering wheel on it, which I rocked till the current owner requested I put the stock wheel back on prior to shipping it Stateside. It's lowered on cheap aftermarket springs, which drastically improved steering response and reduced body roll. I learned to heel-toe in that car!
It seems sometimes they don´t make the top model for performance. 🤔 Sometimes not to exceed the 280 hp maybe (not with that one of course but maybe similar). Haha wheelspin. I have the feeling that these old engines seems more lifely than those today
i’m just watching this video cause i pass by this one house every day and i always see this small ass car just sitting there, stopped to look at it once & realized it was a honda so i had to find out more ab it
Having been to Japan, you'd surprised how much is written in English in Japan. lol Also, Japan is not as expensive to visit as what most people would think. Have self-control over what you buy and you'll have a great time! Food is cheap!
I want one of these. What a cool little thing. For me, id seriously wonder if i could fit my lawn mowing equipment in there. Anyone got one of these in ireland?

As a Honda enthusiast, I never knew these existed.
FYI: The rear bench seats in all three cars folds forward and almost fully flat. So you do have a pretty decent amount of storage space.
really wish kei-cars weren't illegal in oregon or else I'd probably have something like this or a beat by now. Nice review.
There not. You have to register with SP plates.
Remind me of a mini version of my Honda Fit. Especially with those fold flat back seats.
There is a Honda today for sale on the west coast and I sort of want it. Great review
Recently ordered a Today Pochette, excited to see whats in store!
Zack out here giving us BANGERS
You're gonna like next week
@@ShootingCars can’t wait
Well by the looks of it with the 2nd one it have a good trunk space. For the size of the car it is good I´d say.
I was thinking it looked more like an EF9 since it literally looks like a mini version of it...not an EG like you said. Way different looks.
16:09 love that sticker

18:00 Honda had some 3-valve per cylinder engines in the 80's and 90's IIRC!
A guy In my town has a today, had it imported. I thought it was a different version of the city until he told me it wasn't a city
Is it crazy that cars from (in) Japan are named and spelled in English

Takeshi Kitano movie " Getting Any" has one of these in it.
Say one for sale around my area, got interested. And now I want it. One of the few reviews of these cars
I don't think your power ratings are a bit low because i hear they were limited hp to 65hp in Kei cars trucks vans
Hello. I have a 1996 Honda Today. Do you know where I can get a tuneup kit for or just parts in general?

Great review man
Wow! Is this not a Honda Logo?
No. Those came later in the 90s.
Anyone know why these JDMs have text in English instead of just Japanese?
Most of the population in Japan knows a bit of English
These all need 1 rotor engines
Kinda looks like a Honda city2
Very honorabru
