Funny things people have said about your s2000
#1781
The other day a customer was taking delivery of his Laguna Blue S2000. Since LBP was one of the color choices I really wanted, so I went out to the delivery lanes to take a closer look (we haven't had an LBP since May). The other salesperson and the customer walked out to do the final walk-around/inspection and saw me looking all over his car. Coversation as follows:
Me: Nice color. Laguna Blue, right?
Cust: Yes. I love this color.
Me: Great choice. Enjoy your car.
Cust: Thank you.
As I was walking away, I overheard the customer talking to the salesman...
Cust: He really likes the S2000, doesn't he?
Sales: He has one.
Cust: Oh, really?
Sales: Yes, he does.
Cust: Then why was he looking at mine like he has never seen one before?
Sales: He has the red one, and he is jealous.
At that point I was almost ROFLMAO....
Me: Nice color. Laguna Blue, right?

I brought my car over to my parents house last night for a family gathering and I took my mom outside to see the S I had just purchased. She says "O wow, is that a dodge? An srt right?" I look at her with my jaw dropped. "No mom, I had an srt, now I have what they call an S2000, hondas 2 door roadster" She says, well its cute. Parents

I have to agree with chazmo. I love my NFR, but the Rio, and the LBP are AWESOME colors... hell, i love all the colors on this car... except black... and that light blue color... the black because i hate keeping black clean, and the light blue just isnt... i dont know....
anyways, back on topic... it got called a mazda again... but it was a HOT ass chick so i just nodded and said wanna take a ride?...

ME: Its a Honda s2000

About a week ago, I'd stopped by a local Hoiliday gas station and was pumping away . Guy (around 50ish) with his son drove pass my car then circled back around to the rear, here's the conversation-
Him- is that a Saturn? (S emblems)
Me- SATURN? You'd called this a Saturn?
Him- what is it?
Me- (with a smile) It's a Honda
Him- wow (while he drove to the passenger side) one of the best I've seen all summer
Him- I wanna work where you work, what kind of money are you making?
Me- just smile and said thanks (for the compliments)
Nice guy, kinna funny but he was the one driving a Saturn. Probably thought it's one of those Saturn Sky.

I'm driving along in moderate traffic in third gear, the S making the usual 3500-4000RPM yowl...I pass a county police officer going slower in the right lane. The cop reaches his left arm out his window and makes a "slow down" gesture. I think I was doing maybe 30MPH in a 40MPH zone.
He must have thought by the sound that I was driving too fast! It does take some getting used to.

I have S emblems, and I got stopped by the gate gaurd at our building. It's not a daily driver, and I haven't driven it to work that often.
"What's the make? Subaru?"
"haha, Subaru? Worst guess I've heard yet."
"Suzuki?"
" "
Oh, and I went over to a friend's house to have dinner, and her younger sister was outside with her boyfriend. I pull into the long driveway, and she runs inside. Apparently she announced
"I don't know who he is, but someone just pulled into our driveway driving a black porsche."
Better than Suzuki. I'll take it.
