Default Looks like a Mercedes??

I don't know about you guys but a lot have people said that my S looks like "the mercedes" I think they are refering to the SLK. It bugs me a little, others call it the Kompressor. I don't care that the mercedes cost more it is a Honda people, why are you so surprise. Another clown commented that honda has come a long way. A long way from what, honda in its history has owned! motor racing.

I am just venting since the long weekend is over and it has been the best two days of driving with the S

I got Ferrari once. Which was alright I suppose. I'd prefer that people recognize that honking "H" on the hood tho
The one that insinuated me the most however, was the guy (has no clue about cars) who asked me "how much for one of those things?" Once I told him , he rolled his eyes and said "geez..you can get one of those BMW Z3s for that price!" Drove me nuts. Yes, there may be little price difference between the Z3 3.0 and the S, but why must people assume that the BMW is the more superior vehicle?
Silly people...what will you do

A coworker of mine oveheard me saying that I've got a four cylinder in my car.
She went ahead and insisted that her 6 cylinder BMW could easily beat my 4 cyl. honda .
she's got a 96-ish 3 series convertible. I said, "I bet you're wrong", and that was it.

And that's it. That's what I get the most. People challenging me to races because they've got more cylinders than me.
I just can't take it anymore.
