S sports cars, through the years.

One name, many different cars. Choose a generation, then a documented year and version.

4 versions documented

Honda’s S500/S600/S800 line and the later S2000 revival are separate series. Dates use Japanese launch chronology unless a profile explicitly identifies another market or model year.

This is a growing history. A generation listed here does not mean every year or trim is documented. Each profile identifies its engine, transmission and market; available driving models are labeled separately.

S500 / S600 / S800 series

1963–1970

Honda’s first production sports-car sequence began with the 531 cc S500, grew into the S600 and finished with the S800 roadster and coupe.
