He started the car and tried to put it into reverse. dumbass put it 4 and dropped the clutch. Tapped the car in front. shame HE could find the start button

Hahaha.. 
Back when I have the Supra... 90% of the time I have to help the valet back out the car for me,
they keep putting it into 6th gear and the car would just stall... (should of keep their tips)
Now, the M3... some of my friends have trouble finding the reverse too... they are afraid to push
the shifter HARD to the left...

Reverse lockout is apparently unusual to the Japanese. I drove VW's for years, and was accustomed to a lockout on reverse. I'm worried now because I own both a 2000 S2000 and a 1994 Integra. I've become used to making a 4-6 shift on the Honda when I'm just loafing along, keeping up with traffic; this same movement of the shifter would be a 4-R shift in the Integra( and there's no lockout to prevent it).
Fortunately, I would only make this shift when lazing along, so I don't think that I'd force it enough to do any real damage. However, some sort of lockout on Reverse should be a requirement to enter the sportscar market.
