Just lately as the tops been down most days in the S, I hear the words often
S two thousand.

Now usually from young lads/men as im passing by.

Used to get it all the time in the Elise but never in any other open top car.

Im begining to think that the Honda holds a certain kind of 'respect' amonst
the youth.

Quite funny seeing as I still think its a MX5 coming towards me!

I agree. I get used to people of all ages staring like idiots when I'm on the bike but I'd forgotten just how many people give you the nod when you've got the roof down in the S. Sweet!

I think The Fast & the Furious/Gran turismo is to blame. Invariably attracting the wrong kind of attention i.e every plonker wanting to have a go.
