I get that all the time. Recently at Circuit City, a guy asked me what it was, and I told him. He then asked if it was a 6-cyl. I said 4. He then said: "I'm sorry!" I said: "Don't be! It's faster than any stock V8 Mustang GT from any year." And his eyes would pop out. I also said: "It's like a Miata on steroids, and could take a 6-cyl Boxter. By the way, it's $40K, so don't be sorry for me." I really said all those things.

I was at IHOP one late night... and these Wal Mart excecutives (headquarters are up in Bentonville) came up and started to ask me who made the S2K and where i got it.. then their eyes lit up when i said Honda.. even though its been out on the market for a while .. not that many people still know what it is

I guess I'm kind of a poser because I never compare it to a Miata, and get offended when people do. I guess with price and ammenities and performance as factors it does end up being between a miata and boxter..

I just say, "Its a Honda". Then I let who ever asked figure it out.
Actually, I'm pretty proud that it's a Honda. Honda stands for great cars and cars that make sense as well. That pretty much says it all.
By the way, I really like this smiley.

One time, at the gas station, some guy asked me "How you like your "little Honda?" (in a stuck up way). I replied, "It's a piece of sh!t, waste of money."

I went to Niners game last weekend and while getting out of my car, guy in his 7 series asked who makes it since I had Rick's badges all around. Told him it's a Honda so he nods in approval and says nice car. Yep still amazed that so many people don't know anything about our cars. I'm actually getting tired of how it looks since I see 5 at work everyday. Maybe I should get an STI.
