Dude if your girl thinks her accord is better she doesn't know jack about cars or driving experience. Tell her the accords a dime a dozen an know one will give to looks at the car while the s2k has been praised as one of the funnest, most well balanced cars ever from honda.

You have to own one to fall in love with one.
I am kind of glad that there are a lot of people don't even like s2000s.
Don't try to convince your wife to love your car. Just convince her that YOU love your car. That should be more than enough

^ This. Could be worse if she liked the S. I wish mine didn't so we wouldn't rotate cars at all. Not that her CUV isn't fun to drive but it's certainly not even anywhere close to the S.

This sums it up perfectly. Your significant other doesn't have to like it, they just have to like the fact that YOU like it and how much you enjoy driving it.

OK, what to do?

1. slap some sense into the woman

2. trade her in on a newer model

3. Don't invite her to drive with me

4. ignore her


BTW, she doesn't mind it so much if she drives it

No photo provided, the wife is a keeper.

It's a woman's way of manipulating you into letting her do what she wants...she likes the car, but only when she is driving it...ergo she likes the car, but not when you drive it.

It's not the car, it's her way of getting to drive the damn thing

That's damn funny.
She wants to drive it. You ever think about her being a liar (no offense) and manipulator? It doesn't bother her when she drives it? What kinda Sh1t is that?

My wife is not a car person, but loves riding in the S with the top down. It is a stress relief for her. We just celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary touring Yellowstone, Rushmore, Glacier and other national parks. Spent two weeks and ~6k miles in the S.

My wife is not a big fan of my S either. It's too sporty for her and doesn't have enough luxuries. She does enjoy her Miata though (which is why we got it for her) and at least compliments the S from time to time. But again, I didn't buy the S for her, it was for me!
