I thought since this is such a sad day for all of us that a little humor might be appropriate. My wife and I were celebrating our 35th wedding anniversery in a little town on the eastern shore of Maryland called St. Michaels. We took the S2K and on the way down it turned 40K. She will be 3 years old on Oct. 1 and the 3 years of joy we have had traveling all over the place have been "priceless". Well, we came down for the standard B & B breakfast the first morning and there were 4 other couples having breakfast with us. The first couple asked me how I liked my Viper as they said they were admiring it in the parking lot. The 2nd couple thought it as a Panoz, the 3rd couple swore it was the new T-bird and the waitress thought it was a Porsche. The quiche almost fell out of their mouths when I told them it was a Honda (Rick's badges are on the front and rear). Then I had to tell the whole story behind car. The gentleman who thought it was a viper asked if the price was in the 65-70K range and I said yeah, if you want two of them. Then for the next 2 days we got thumbs up and questions everytime we stopped anywhere. Amazing after 3 years the mystique this car still creates. I guess thats why we love it. Maybe this will bring a little humor to a very sad day. God Bless America

 

, those were some weird guesses.

 

ty for sharing! i really appreciated the story!

 

I had a guy a while back holler at me at a stoplight "How do you like your Boxster?" I said "It's a Honda." He starts arguing with me "That's no Honda, I know what a Porsche looks like." I told him, "You're right, I don't know what kind of a car I drive, you dumb f*ck" and drove off.

 

then just call his car the new Cavalier.

 

New T-bird????? Ummm... wow....


All i can really say

 

A Panoz? hehe. I'm surprised they even knew the name "Panos."

 

I had another guy one time in an old, beat to shit, loud Corvette convertible next to me at a light say "Nice Miata." The light changed, I blew his doors off, and at the next light I said "Nice Corvair." He just gave me this puzzled, dumb shit look.
