If you're having that many people flash their high beams at you, did it ever occure to you that maybe you need to get your headlights aimed? If they're sitting a little to the high side, especially with HID's, it can be VERY irritating to oncoming traffic.
But unless you have lowered your car, or have 500 lbs in the trunk, there is absolutely no reason why you have to re-aim the headlights on a 2002 car.
If you owned an s2000 you'd know that the cutoff is very very sharp, and the lights are already aimed low. If you stand in front of the car, the lights cut off at mid-thigh level. Owners have already mentioned that they are aimed too low, in that they over-run their lights on a dark night.
The car also has stiff suspension, so when it goes over bumps, it gives the illusion that the lights are blinking from low to hi beams. So no, don't imply that YeLLoW is the idiot, its simply a combo of bright HID's, stiff suspension, and rough roads.

and YeLLoW.....just flash them back, and know that you have a kick A$$ car

But these 2 types piss me off the most:
1.) Idiots who high beam, then I slow down, get behind them and high beam to show them that my HIDs arent my high beams, then they go ahead and highbeam me again.
2.) People who have HID's that high beam me.
God it's like they're so idiotic. How can it not comprehend?

This is usually on highways when the road is bumpy so the headlights go up and down all the time. I pass the person and they make the attempt to get the best of me
