2015 model I saw while at Lane Motor Museum. More pictures from Lane to come later.
Edit: As some have noted, the last picture is of the Beat parked next to it.

I don’t know if that was the point but the interior really looks like a Beat.
Like almost exactly.

Last image is of a Beat. This is what a S660 interior looks like.

Yeah I realized that with Daily’s comment. The Beat was parked next to it.

I think my issue is that it’s absolutely exactly the same.

OK yeah I was a little confused because there was no labeling.

I made an edit to confirm. That was my fault for not payinv attention to the pictures.

Either way I’ll take both. Sometime I’ll make it up to the museum.

:O which would you rather have? The Beat or the S660?

Nope. They own CS Automotive on the other side. Niche used to be their shop before they moved to the other side of the hotel you stayed in.

Oh wow really? That’s crazy. Small world indeed. Very cool.
Hotel was nice. Nothing fancy and got a good deal on the room. There weren’t many people there so it was nice and quiet too.

Hmmm see that’s a tough one. They both make about the same hp iirc. The beat is about 160-200lbs lighter though. The Beat was manual only, whereas the S660 can be had with a 6-speed or a cvt with flappy paddles. The S660 is a tad longer but both have the same wheelbase.
The S660 is very cool, no doubt on that, but the Beat was the last car approved by Soichiro Honda before he passed away and it was a Pininfarina design. For that, I think I would take the Beat.

I took this Friday but I think t got lost in your notifications. That was taken from the side door of the shop of the hotel you were in

Ah damn yeah I don’t remember that. Our window was actually facing your parents’ shop.
If we weren’t in such a hurry to get to lane and on to Knoxville I would have sent you a message. We did get to see Neyland before it got dark, though, so that was nice. Here’s me with Molly after we picked her up.
