Default Damn push start I forgot it was there

Well I was out of the country for 3 months. My car wouldnt start I thought the battery was dead. I recently changed it last year but I thought maybe when a little cousin came over or something they were playing around with my car. Well I rarely use the S2k but to move it around in my garage I pop it into first on a hill to start it. Well a few times my girl friend tells me but you have to push start it. I thought what the hell is this woman talking about and would tell her just to stick to the kitchen.

Well today I start thinking about and thought why do my head lights work and head unit when I turn over the keys. Yet the engine wont turn on. Well I am in car sales I own a dealership outside of the USA. My girl friend told me well you are so used to selling piece of crap cars that you dont feel right driving nice cars anymore. I thought about it for hours then I come to realize S2000 have a push start buttons after you put the keys in.

I'm serious I completely forgot I was out of the country for 3 months actually and before being out of the country I havent driven the car for 2 months on top of that. I've never left the car sitting for so long. I kept wondering whats wrong with it. Today it came to it the battery must be fine if the head lights and head unit work fine. I wondered how come the keys wont switch over.

When I get in the car, the first thing I always notice is that big red button that says "engine start."

Hahaha I dont know how I could forget this but I dont take myself seriously. I just thought it was funny. My girl friend kept trying to remind me but I would just think to myself what is she talking about.

I dont drive the S2000 very much. I only have tried to turn it on 3 times since I came back.

The first time I ever tried to pump gas into the S2k was a bit of a problem too.

S2000 owners know what im talking about. I remember picking it up from the dealership and wondering how I get the gas door to open.
