Now I'm certainly going to have SMALL SUPER MOVER playing in my head for at least the next few days.

How to best advertise an all-wheel-drive, SUV-shaped Kei car that’s only sold in Japan? That’s right, with a song by famed American rock band ZZ Top.
At any rate, you can think of the Honda Z as the two-door, SUV-like cousin to the Honda Acty, as both share several components including a mid-mounted inline-three engine.
While all versions of the Honda Z came with all-wheel-drive as standard, this example for sale is the turbocharged model. (A naturally aspirated version was also available.)
This Z is said to be well-optioned and well-equipped according to its seller, who also notes the Honda is accompanied by maintenance records, an owner’s manual plus an extra key and key fob.
Find this 1999 Honda Z Turbo listed for sale on Facebook Marketplace for $8500.

Thats the way it should be.
OMG on the ZZ Top connection.
I remember the Honda Z that had a 600cc air-cooled engine in front. It was the forerunner of the Civic.

Maybe I do need this
In reply to Colin Wood :
You had me at ZZ Top.
That thing is so berkeleying cool. It's dorky beyond belief and so circles back around to amazingly cool like a Mel Brooks movie or Robert Carradine or something. Driving this you would be a super star locally. People would post about sighting you on your local subreddit.
Is this cooler than a Beat?
Possibly. Good find, Colin.

I couldn't sum up the appeal (for me, at least) any better.
TIL that Cleveland Moto (just up the street from my house) has one of these devices, at $10k.
