FS/FT: 1991 Honda Beat (Us eligible)
So the time has come that I might look for another project. Here are some details on the car. Car should be no problem being US registered. Currently has 17 digit vin, and is registered as a honda civic "Beat edition" in Canada. I am willing to examine some trades, but would mostly be looking for cash or an s2000. Car is a blast to drive with no known issues. Really feels just like a go kart on the road. Parts are easy to find online, car carries a ridiculously strong cult like following in Japan and new parts are being made still for this car. To the purchaser I will give all of my parts info for acquiring.
As for US sale. I would be willing to meet up in Montana around the border. Would have to be on a weekend and a fairly hefty deposit would need to be made to get me down there.

STOLEN FROM WIKI:
The Honda Beat is a rear wheel drive, mid-engined two-seat roadster kei car produced from May 1991 to February 1996. The Beat was the last car to be approved by Soichiro Honda before he died in 1991. The total number of cars produced was around 33,600. Most of the production (around two-thirds) occurred in the first year, and then production and sales fell drastically. The design of the car originated from Pininfarina, who then sold the design plan to Honda. The Beat was one of many cars designed to take advantage of Japan's tax-efficient kei car class.[2]
There were two mainstream models of the Beat (the PP1–100 and the PP1–110) and a couple of limited edition versions. Variations on the first model were just cosmetic updates. Only the second model had any real mechanical differences. All cars were offered with the option of a driver's side airbag. The car was sold exclusively in Japan at Honda Primo dealership sales channels.
In typical Honda fashion, the Beat's engine did not utilize a turbocharger or supercharger. The 656 cc (40.0 cu in) engine was modified with the MTREC (Multi Throttle Responsive Engine Control) system, with individual throttle bodies for each of the three cylinders, to produce 64 PS (63 bhp) at 8100 rpm with an electronically limited top speed of 135 km/h (84 mph). Only a manual transmission was available. The MTREC design would filter down to the 1993 Honda Today kei car.
The Beat was part of a wave of kei car-sized sports cars in the early 1990s; its competitors included the Suzuki Cappuccino and Mazda's Autozam AZ-1. Together they anticipated the arrival of the Smart Roadster over a decade later, while Japan would not see a new model of the genre until the recent Daihatsu Copen.
At May 9, 2010, a parade held in the Twin Ring Motegi circuit as a part of an annual Beat owner meeting. 569 Honda Beats participate the parade which is certified by Guinness World Records as the largest parade of Honda cars. The record will be shown in the book in 2011 unless larger parade will be held by then.

As a lover of tiny cars, I would love to own one of these. Alas, no money for such a toy. Good luck with sale and what a great looking car!

Re: FS/FT: 1991 Honda Beat (Us eligible)
still available but would be a pain to sell due to snow.
Have added backyard special rear strut bar, and carbon fiber rear brake vent inserts.

6' 2" 255 and I drove a crx for years without any problems. I fit in s2000s fine as well. My weight is from eating right and hitting the gym. Carry the size in my shoulders, bis and chest. I guess if you are a fatass and carry the weight in your belly you wouldnt fit. But thanks for not buying cuz you are so huge lol.

Re: FS/FT: 1991 Honda Beat (Us eligible)
Wow... take it easy on that guy.
I am 185 and 6 feet tall... I fit no problem, lots of room to spare actually, as you get bigger people getting into driverseat, you almost have to practice getting in without looking awkward. There is less room with the recaro's, but stock seats are included.
As for the type R trade, tempting, but I think I have found another Japanese project, moreso just looking to sell now, thanks though (beautiful R)
