I was lucky enough to have a lady friend who used to loan me her S600 back in the day.
They were incredible, revving to 11000 RPM. Driving it felt very similar to my 1100cc F2 Brabham I was racing at the time.
Their only minor flaw was a heavy flywheel used to make them easier to get away from a standstill, meant it took a while for the revs to drop enough in first & second, so you could pick up the next gear without a crunch. The revs were just too much for the synchros.
I guess there aren't too many that have driven the full range of Honda S cars.
