Quote from Sports Car World June 1971 "Four cylinders ... fair enough. Air-cooled? Well, it's been done. Transversely-mounted engine? That's been done, too. Forced-induction air-cooling? Not all that new. Front-wheel drive? Not new. Four carbs on a four-banger? Standard procedure, for Honda. Dry-sump? Been popular in performance cars for donkey's years. Cross-over swing axles? Extremely rare! But combine all these features in one super-sporty little coupe, and you've got what looks on paper to be the weirdest little motor car ever!" This website is supported by the proud owners of Honda 1300 Coupes around the world. This car was a private project for Soichiro Honda, the founder of the Honda Motor Company. After successfully giving the world some of the best motorcycles of their time, Mr. Honda wanted to do something unique for the automotive world. Click here to read about Mr. Soichiro Honda and this car. Based on a unique air-cooled overhead cam engine and with other ingenious design features, the Honda 1300 Coupe was born.
