If you can't afford a $50 knob then talking about a $700 wing, $500 lip and $1k wheels is just masturbation.

If you track the car, no, not rice.

If it sees nothing but street, yes, rice.

Wings = downforce. Amount of downforce needed to drive to the coffee shop, the theater, grocery shopping, the mall, etc.: 0lbs.

You could say I'm a bit purpose-oriented
+1

I wonder what effect it has on gas mileage over a long highway trip?

I do quite well for myself i think but i'm very cheap and love to save money, after all the more money you save the more things your can buy. I was simply making a joke. I Sincerly apologize for hurting your feelings. Any sort of slightly offenseive comments i think of in the feature will be kept to myself. Thank You for your bold remarks, you have done your best to protect the honda corporation and have succeded in your goals. I have now seen the light, stranger. You may continue on in your journey's voicing your much needed moral opinion through out the world. The lack of ability to read sarcastic remarks through text is an ability which will not hinder you but only help you in your quest to make the world a better place via internet forums. Thanks again. I am now a better man.

If you don't ABSOLUTELY love it, don't get it. You'll end up regreting spending your $700 on it. Wait for a wing that you ABSOLUTELY must have and don't mind spending $$$ on it. $700 is a lot of money.

I think you are a little defensive, not to mention a little, or severely insecure. He was simply making a comment in regards to a not so funny joke on your end. Who the **** cares what other people think of the wing? lol, i mean seriously, are you that worried about impressing people? the majority of people you are going trying to impress (i.e. those who don't know or appreciate the car) are going to see the Honda H emblem and immediately look away and think its some version of a cheap Honda with a big wing on back that some kid in high school built. They will never think that it offers a performance advantage.

Build your car the way you like it, how you want it. If not you will never be happy with it.

And if you do so "well" for yourself and you want to impress people, get rid of the S2000 and get something that is more likely to get you noticed. I could surely afford a much more expensive car than a S2000, but I drive a S2000 because it is so enjoyable in so many ways, it sounds to me that you are just trying to impress people.
