I didn't know Honda built a working model of their Sports Study Model !

Cool. I'd heard of an SSM, but have never seen one like that one.

 

In the world of S2k, SSM refers to both the paint color SilverStone Metallic, as well as this rarely talked about Sport Study Model.

Same acronym, totally different meanings...

I still had an EG back then. The SSM was my dream car when it was first announced in the '90s (since I knew it (later named the S2000) would be far too expensive for me when released).

 

how cool was the interior! Is the shifter a sequential?

Also according to this, it was a 5 cylinder! https://books.google.com/books?id=87...201995&f=false

Edit: Some more research, it was indeed a sequential gearbox. http://www.carstyling.ru/en/car/1995_honda_ssm/
