Default Portland Autoshow - Ron Tonkin MORONS!!

OK, just got back from the Portland Auto Show. Stopped by the Honda booth which was sponsored by RON TONKIN Honda of Beaverton. As I was checking out the Red S2000 on display, I overheard the salesman giving some guy his sales pitch on the S2000. Here's where it gets good:

Unbelievable quote #1 - "They make a supercharger for this that gives you an extra 140 HP, and it only costs $1300"

Unbelievable quote #2 - "You can't really compare the horsepower in this car directly to other cars, and that's because of the VTEC. VTEC gives you 90% of the power at 3000 RPMs"

I was laughing too hard to say anything ...

The PDX auto show was not all that great ... here's the best car in the show, IMO -
