Default what ares some of the comments and questions you get from strangers about your s2000

It seems that at least once every other day I get a question or comment about my s2k, here are some:

most common question: "what kind of car is that?"

favorite question: "want to trade cars?" (my reply - no, but thanks for offering)

dumbest question: "is that a mustang?" (yes, somebody actually asked me that. )

most common comment: "nice car"

funniest comment: "hey look, it's the batmobile!"

favorite comment: "your car is bad ass!"

other common questions:

"how much did it cost?"
"is it yours?"
"is it fast?"

Little kids say, "whoa nice car", then fall off their bicycles.

After embarassing some guy in a Lexus IS200 (think you guys call them altezza's?) in front of his mates, he gave me
"Is that a six?"
"um nah jus a little 4"
I get asked that a bit for some reason.

Laughed my ass off the other day. Was at a service station and this nice looking girl wandered out smiling at me and looking at the car. Was cool but nothing out of the ordinary......
that is until she got in her boyfriend's pos car.
Poor guy was cut as and trying not to show it but she just kept on giving me the look down. He called some crap out which just made me laugh more.

Felt sorry for him though. Would be so pissed if my girl done this.
