I do not understand why someone making the error of not properly recognizing your car makes you upset. 
just have a coke, smile and enjoy the ride. Remenmber to look in the rear view mirror for the look on thier face when they see it's a Honda.

Does anyone else think the rear of the stook looks just a bit too much like the rear of a Miata? Take a look at both - they're very similar. This was one of my concerns when shopping for a new car. I didn't want to pay $33k and have it mistaken for a Miata (not that there's anything wrong with Miatas). Anyway, the "bang for the buck" of the S2k won me over. I've just gotten mine past the 600 mi break-in period and have been trying out the VTEC. What a rush!! Now I'll probably get wrinkles from my constant ear-to-ear grin!!

The rear end of the S2000 is too 'fat' to be mistaken for a Miata.... IMO. When you look at the flare of the fenders, the rubber, the twin exhausts, the car's stance on the road you can tell it's a bit more 'serious' than that.
BTW I do like Miatas... I just like S2000's more.

I always felt that the rear of the S2000 is the most unappealing part of its design. In my view cars (and I mean any car not just sports cars) should look low and wide not short and stubby - which unfortunately is what the rear end of the S2000 is. I specifically didn't purchase one of the darker colours as I think the darkness accentuates this look.
I definitely think the back end looks like a Miata - the shape of the tail lights being the dominant feature. I think the Mazda looks better than the S2000 but not as good as the original Miata - the hump in the middle of the boot (trunk) just makes the car look taller rather than flatter.
