Interesting (dumb) conversation I overheard

I was at the Chicago Auto Show today, and while I was looking at a black Lotus Elise, I heard this two persons (an adult and a kid, in his mid-teens, father and son probably) talking about the car as they were approaching:

Father: "Oh, it's just a four cylinder"
Son: "Look, '0-60: Confidential'" (refering to the specification sheet)
Father: "That probably means it can't go past 65 mph"


I also saw Suzuka Blue for the first time. I thought it looked pretty decent, though I still prefer Monte Carlo Blue. Hope we get it in 2003.

Lucky I wasn't there, because I would've insulted the shit out of them then inform them of the capabilities of the car, and the specs of the car. After that, more insults to the ignorant schmucks.

Wow, Integrate, you certainly aren't in a good mood today are you just saw your post in Mingsters rant thread as well..... Boy did you get out of bad the wrong side today
Actually had a really good time this weekend. After living with my new roommate for a couple weeks, I've come to dislike stupid/ignorant people even more than I did before. If you read my roommate rants, then you know what I'm talkin about, hehe

err....r
I caught you

James, 250ps does not equal to 250hp

that few extra HP I can buy some minor Spoon parts to make it up.

actually the most important is MC blue, I can get that Honda BBS wheel from MG Racing, and Nav is only for .
I won't drive S2000 to a long trip or a new city.
