Again, we have to be mean to a stranger who like our cars. It was fair that you didn't know about his car, and he didn't know about yours...

Clueless Dude: "Hey, nice toy you got there!"
Me: "Thanks. Its a great car, I love it"
Clueless Dude: "That's one of those new Porsches right?"
Me: "No, actually it's a Honda, a Honda S2000"
Clueless Dude: "A Honda???? Really??? Boy is that nice!"
Me: "Yea, I really enjoy driving it"
Clueless Dude: "So what does that car run? $50-$60 thousand?"
Me: "um..........yea sure that's pretty much what they go for these days."

One time at a car show a stupid older lady said my NSX was a nice Fiero! I almost jumped the ropes and killed her, but then her husband said NO thats not a Fiero thats a Ferrari. So I calmed down a little.

Someone said they hate it when someone says their S2K's are cute, there is a lady that lives in my town that I just wanna strangle. She bought an S2k just cuz to her its a cute convertible. She ramps it up driveways bottoming out big time, doesn't take care of it at all. Her boyfriends rod the shit out of it and drive it down gravel roads and do cookies in gravel. Just totally abuse the car, it totally pisses me off!

OK, if someone calls it a Porsche (and it happens a lot ), I'm offended. It's not a frikin' Porsche. If I wanted a Boxter, I would've bought a Boxter. But the worst is when a guy KNEW what kind of car it was and said "You should've just bought a Miata," EXCUSE ME

The guard at the entrance to 17 Mile Drive asked me "How do you like your BMW?" I said "I don't know, I don't own a BMW." and drove away.

A lot of people don't know of S2K's (sad isn't it??? )
I guess I'm a freak but I kinda like it when people have no idea what I'm driving. It's sorta like, "What IS that? It's a plane! No it's....it's a HONDA!?" They don't even know what hit 'em !

Love me, hate me, just don't ignore me. Let's face it a lot of us drive sports cars because: a) they're unique and b) they generate attention. Here in truck land anything lower than a mailbox is foreign.

Finally seeing a new Spa Yellow S2K in the area - nice to have company.
