What you see here is a 1972 Honda Z600, the first car Honda sold in the US of A. In fact, Honda didn't have the infrastructure to properly market the car at the time, so you'd only find these puppies at motorcycle dealerships, parked next to the iconic CB750. This particular example has undergone a ground-up restoration back in the 90's and is still in Awesome condition! Tuned by Tim Mings, Honda Z600 guru, the one contracted by Honda to restore serial #1 Z600. Perfect Running condition, needs nothing and has a set of fresh tires. 70+mph is achievable, believe it or not, but this car is much better suited for beach roads than highways. Being a Honda, the start up is always swift and effortless, with gas mileage that would put the Prius to shame.
