Sorry...but here we go again (and no, I have no reason to take offense to anyone's particular comments here -- other than the fact that this thread is degrading from its topic)...

Why not just start a thread on this subject of "PC" in Off-Topic and discuss it over there (and...by extension, allow *this* thread to continue along the subject of the S2000)?

PS. I'll check out the word association thread in a minute -- glad I could help (I hope).

Later...

Here's my genuine question about the S2000. First, I love the car. I like the design for the most part (think the line of the front fender is probably one of the sexiest lines on a car in years), think that the performance and technology are great...but is this car destined to be a classic? I mean, in 40 years will people still look at the car and get that palpatation in their heart like I personally do when I see an old Triumph TR-6 or even a more mundane MGB?

Since everyone that was beating garyj's religion threads into the ground have had a few days to rest, I'm sure a thread on the inane and divisive topic of political correctness would be highly entertaining.

5) Huge 6 pot Brembo brakes
6) Full wood interior becomes an option
7) CD/Navigation/touchscreen climate control
8) 900 watt Monsoon eardrum buster stereo
This sounds like the voice of truth and knowledge.

(Good one, Da Hapa!)

Wouldn't this be an interesting way to do market research. Except for the bigotry -- and self-rightous defence of bigotry -- this post pretty much sums up the thoughts of the enthusiast community. If I wanted to know if my 2004 development plans were on track, I'd post just such a message.
