This morning I changed out my tranny fluid, but before that I had to go to the dealer to get some Honda MTF.
Me: "I need some tranny fluid for my S2000"
Sales: "Is that the automatic or the manual sir?"
Me: "Excuse me?"
Sales: "Do you have the automatic or the manual transmission in your S2000?"
Me: "Ummm, yea. Its the manual transmission"
I guess its a good thing I dont get the car serviced there, does the guy really not know about the tranny being ONLY 6spd?
Anyways, made me chuckle a bit.

And these are the guys that are supposed to know more about our cars than us....scarey...
Although i do have another funny thing to add. Im currently up in the Black Hills in South DAkota, and i was attending one of the big car shows going on. Mind you, i was the only import(seriously) registered in this show. I also had the newest car (the second newest was a 67 shelby gt500 kr, and believe me i looked into it.) Most of the people at this show had no clue what my car was, with the exception of the true car guys. I got numerous compliments(i was quite suprised, i figured id get yelled at and told to leave) but heres the one that stuck out...
Older Guy: Wow, you dont see many of these around here, looks nice!
Me: Not as nice as some of these other guys around here. Guess i dont have much of a chance for winning a prize here though eh?
Older Guy: True, but ill tell ya what, If there was an RPM Limit contest, you'd wipe the floor with these guys!

what makes you think a parts saleman is supposed to know about your car?
it's the mechanic thats expected to know his sh*t. not a slaesman.
truck driver: nice car
me: (top down looking up..wayyy up) thanks
trucker: three liter right?
me: two
trucker: 2 litre straight six?
me: no. four cylinder.
trucker: really? under that hood?
i smile and nod as light turns green

Redneck: Is that there thingy a Hyundai (in reference to the "H" on the back)
Me: Nope ... it's a Honda
Redneck: But it's got the H thingy on the back like my Hyundai
Me: Sorry to tell you but you've got the half-assed H ... notice it laying on it's side?
Redneck: So what you got there then?
Me: It's a Honda, just like I told me moments ago.
Redneck: O ... um ... ah ... You got the V8 in there or the V6?
Me: 4 banger ... 2000 hp ... see the S2000 badge on the side? The 2000 part means 2000 hp.
Redneck: Damn ... how do you drive that thingy with all that power?
Me: ... (drives off not believing the conversation actually happened)
Hahaha
