I bought mine because it was the most fun a man can have behind the wheel. I figured that I would get the "What do you drive?" question and I would just say "A Honda." If some chick wants to nail me just because I have this car, I would have no problem with that. But, I don't think I would keep her around very long.

Having said that, I do get tons of looks from the ladies when I drive it. I even had a "roadhead" moment with the car. We had to pull over. That is not the easiest thing to do in this car. They don't look twice at my beater truck.

I honestly get more looks in this car from males. Mind you, everyone looks at me in this car, probably think I'm a drug dealer. I'm 18 but I look younger, so that can't be good.

I'm in the same boat as greybeard.

I get more looks from guys than girls. Ricers are really popular around here right now, and the tuners are always turning their heads.

If I knew how to post a poll I'd try this one:

Suppose that in polishing your S2000 you happen to evoke a mischievous genie (there have been more far fetched stories on this forum). He offers to grant you one of two wishes:

1) You can have, free of charge, maintenance and taxes, the car of your dreams. Absolutely any car in the world. You can drive it how and when you want and enjoy the driving experience to the fullest. The only catch is that, the way the genie's spell works, everybody else will perceive your car to be a rusted out <your nightmare car here>.

OR

2) You are doomed to spend the rest of your days driving a rusted out <your nightmare car>. For you, the driving experience will totally blow. But, again due to the genie's spell, everybody else (male and female) will perceive your car as being that car that you're dreaming about.

Interesting topic of conversation! Have to say, nope did not buy for the chick appeal. And there is no chick appeal when one just states you have a honda s2000. but let them have a look see and then take em for a spin, WOW! But alas all in vain cause the wife has now banned the opposite sex from the passenger seat. Did not take the wife long to figure out the appeal of the car.!

Salesman told me:
"IF you have a boyfriend, you wont have one anymore. And if you don't have a boyfriend, you will after this!"


I got a bf

My wife (then fiance') was a very strong proponent of me buying my first S (the 2001) so the babe magnet factor wasn't part of my decision.

The car does get a lot of looks, though.

I bought the car to drive and decompress from crappy days at work. Lots of open road less than 5 minutes from my house and a bad winter day here is about 40 degrees. Oh, and BTW, what is that white stuff you guys are complaining about? Besides, I am 49, losing my hair, happily married and, .... well, you get the picture. I really love driving the car. Looks, schmooks, I really pay more attention to finding other cars to race. Ok, yeah. I am re-living my teen years through the car, but so what?

Funny story. I am blasting around the country back roads with another over the hill buddy. Top down, music cranked and a beautiful day to enjoy the car to it's fullest. We pull up to a 4 way stop in a small town. While waiting our turn, I notice a gaggle of college age women clustered across the corner at some sort of BBQ/cookout/all girl event. They are talking and sorta pointing at us. (Well, they were pointing at the car....) It gets to be our turn, we drive thru the intersection past them and we heard one of them say in a shocked voice, "Eewww.... they're old!"

Heard it clear as day, laughed all the way home.
