2000 Honda Acty SDX 5-Speed Manual

We picked up this 2000 Honda Acty SDX with 46,160 original miles on the clock, and it's one of the cleaner Actys we've brought in this year. The rust-free body tells you it spent its life somewhere dry, and the original interior hasn't been beat up by twenty-five years of farm work or delivery runs. Right-hand drive, five-speed manual, built the way Honda sent it out for the Japanese domestic market - no shortcuts, no modifications.

Why the Acty SDX still earns its keep

Honda's Acty line has a reputation for being the most car-like of the kei truck crowd, a bit smoother on pavement and a bit quieter at speed than some of the Suzuki and Daihatsu competition, mostly thanks to a mid-mounted engine layout that keeps weight balanced over the rear axle. The SDX trim added a few extra comforts over the base work truck, and this one still has factory air conditioning blowing cold plus a set of alloy wheels dressing it up over the plain steel-wheel models. It's a 2WD example, which keeps the drivetrain simple and gives you one less thing to maintain - most of these trucks spend their working life hauling light loads around town or a piece of property, not crawling through mud.

We ran this truck through a full service and inspection before listing it - fluids, filters, brakes, the usual punch list every import needs after a container ship crossing. The 5-speed manual shifts clean, the clutch takes up right where it should, and there's no drama anywhere in the driveline. At 46,160 miles it's got plenty of life left in a truck engineered to run well past 100,000 kilometers under normal use.

Keep in mind this is a JDM import built for Japanese roads, so it's right-hand drive - some states title these for full street use, others restrict them to off-road or private-property use, so check your local DMV rules before you commit. We handle the import paperwork and title work on our end. Payment is by secure bank transfer, and we deliver door-to-door anywhere in the continental US, so this Acty can land in your driveway without you ever leaving home.
