A different car, a different perspective..

"So, is that your wife's car?" From a guy in one of my classes.

I've also gotten a few comments from younger kids implying it's not fair that I have this car and they don't. Not really sure what that's about, it's not like I took it from them.

Once I had this really cute blonde client and we were just talking and somehow it was brought up i bought a new car..Anyways, I told it her it a S2000 but she didn't know what it looked like so of course being the die hard S guy, I had a picture of it in my drawer. Anyways, I bring it out and she's like, "WOW!!! IS THAT A PORSCHE??!!??" all wide eyed and stuff and I'm like , "No, it's a Honda" ..and she's like " Oh..ok" looking all dissapointed..oh well..some people just don't appreciate a fine looking car..

it is funny how different colors will generate different comments.

when i had the white/red version, people said cool car. that car is hot, or nice looking car.

when i switched to the blue, all i been hearing is awww.. how cute...

don't know what is up with that. i guess they can't seem to grasp that a blue car can be a sports car.... oh well....


life goes on....

we have more torque then everyother honda/acura (excluding nsx). we just don't have the amount of torque everyone expects for a car as fast as ours.

my car is silver and is occationally called 'cute' *shutter*, i hate that.

A couple of friends of mine saw my car for the first time and thought it was a Porsche. I took that as a compliment.

.Ignorance is bliss . My car was in the garage and I had the hood up and someone told me they thought it was an NSX (I wish). Most don't know what it is and I like that. It makes them ask me about it and I enjoy telling people about it
