It works everytime. Chicks dig JDM cars!

Amazed how many people ask about the car or compliment it. I have owned many premium brands and never got this many kind words from people!

I tell people, thanks, it's a lot of fun, but it's not very practical. I always get a laugh.

Believe it or not, I live in a pretty nice area, and I have gotten the Ferrari comment more times than enough lol. Its the color, NFR maybe. Ive also been told the ap2 tails at night look similar to the 458. Mine are smoked so they can only see the ring itself. Idk just stuff ive been told

I usually say, thanks, its just a honda. Most people ask how I fit inside though, I tell them very carefully.

my comment related to a 65 year old lady who doesn't know crap about cars. My point was that she thought I was driving a six-figure automobile, hence the need for me to give her the truth about it being a Honda and not worth very much $$$$. FWIW we don't have ghettos over here, the closest one would be about 2 hours south and just over the border, can't say I've ever seen one but I see them on CNN all the time
