A little context on the PA1 Honda Z

The PA1 Honda Z of 1998 to 2002 is the oddity of the kei class: a small, square, SUV-styled car with the engine mounted amidships under the rear floor, borrowed from the Acty commercial range. Honda sold it mainly with the UM-4 full-time four-wheel-drive system and the 656cc E07Z, including a turbocharged version. Few were built and fewer were exported, so the Z is a genuinely uncommon sight outside Japan.

This one reads 85,312 miles, about 137,300 km. Honda built the mid-mounted E07 engine for commercial use rather than for a passenger car, and figures in the high five digits are routine across the generation.

What the specification means

A kei passenger car is built to the same statutory ceiling as a kei truck — 660cc, 3.4 metres, 1.48 metres — but with the whole package turned toward people rather than payload. Japanese manufacturers compete hard inside those fixed limits, which is why kei cars are so much roomier inside than their footprint suggests.

In the $8,000 to $12,000 band a kei car is normally either a turbocharged specification, a four-wheel-drive one, or a model that was built in genuinely small numbers. The plain hatchbacks sit well below this.

To proceed

Built in 1999, it sits the far side of the 25-year federal import cut-off. Customs entry, import documentation and title work are all done here, and we arrange transport to any state. Listed at $10,995 — tell us it is the one and we will take it off the market.
