I always thought it would be awesome if someone made a little roadster (like the Honda S660, which we've just found out is heading for production), gave it brass-era touches and called it a runabout.

Nothing too weird, just imagine the S60 with brass trim on Fiat 500-style headlights, wheels harking back to the artillery style and a split hood. It would be so cool.

In personal watercraft (jetski) racing that's what we call the sit-down class.
