Default s2000 don't get that many girls... :(

well, here's something i wanna share...
the day i traded in my old z3 and got a s2000,
this girl in my class goes, "eeeeeew! why honda
over bmw? why THAT over z3?"
i was just looking at her and thinking, "what do
you know..."

... then i realize all my friends and family, even people
at my favorite hot dog place think that z3 was better!

so i started asking people which one has better design...
and about 8 out 10 people say z3!

then, my friends with mr2 spyder, boxter, m z3 all drive together,
it seems like s2000 gets the least attention!

err, where do you live?
Z3s are about as common as Civics here... no one really gives a damn about them...

also, girls that choose the Bimmer over the Honda... well obviously I would want nothing to do with her... costs too damn much anyways.

Anyways, Z3s are rather ugly....

I have had the exact opposite reaction here in S. Cal much to the unhappiness of my fiancee. Porsches and BMWs don't exactly grow on trees here, but you see a whole lot of them whereas despite the enthusiasm of Team Irvine and the rest of the S. Cal contingent, you just don't see many stooks here.

I can't drive the car without getting stares, thumbs up and/or compliments from both sexes.

When I was in K-Town I hear Korean girls say .......... S2000 ........ oooh ....... S2000

Where ....... = korean words I don't know.
It wasn't bad remarks because they looked pretty impressed.

Girls dig the car for sure. I've seen them stare at the car before. At least it's like that where I live.

Well, if one girl believes Z3 is better design... well!! only thing I could say is..... she is a fool! Even the car magazine says that Z3 looks WEIRD ....
Anywayz, I believe S2K is much better look than most of roadsters... well!! Boxster is the most beautiful roadster to me... but...!! still!! I would not buy a Boxster..!! But the most important thing is... how you like your stook...

I always hear people commenting about the S2000 when driving by them. They're still very rare, even down here in So Cal. Unless you have an M roadster, you're not really that special. Even then, the M roadster and the Z3 look so similar (except for the dual exhaust) that it's not worth buying at all.
