My friend and I were at a Honda dealer just seeing what they had on their showroom and a friendly saleslady approached us. After talking about some of the cars, I said that I especially love the S2000 and that it's a marvel that it pushes 240 horse out of a 2 liter (now 2.2 liters) inline 4. "An inline 4? No, it has a V-6. How could it possibly have that much horsepower with only 4 cylinders?" I corrected her and assured her that it's only 4. You should've seen the look on her face when I told her the true stats of a car she's supposed to know everything about!

I love the S2000. I'm only 17, but if Honda keeps making it I want to own this beautiful car when I'm older.

^ You should've popped the hood open and asked her,

"If this is a V-6, where is the other bank of cylinders?"

I was driving mine around Easter Weekend and I had a guy tell me my Car was a " Ass Magnet"

Also pulled up into my friends driveway and his mom was washing her motorcycle and said " Damn you are HOT!"

Took my ex for a ride and got into it, and she said "Dont act like your not jizzin yourself right now", I replied "if you only knew"

Looks like a Mugen (typical Mugen intake hump).

Last summer, I was driving cross country and filling up at a gas station. A woman in a minivan approached me and asked me what kind of car I drove.
I replied, "Honda s2000."
"That's a cute car. Do you want to trade?"
I look over at her minivan. Look over her two kids in the car. Looked back at my car.
"No thanks!"

*********************

This next story is partly my own doing...
So I pull into the service dept at the Honda dealer with my gf to replace a piece in the center console. I parked behind an Accord waiting to be checked in. It takes a while so I turn of the engine. The Accord drives off and by that time I was already out of the car looking at the other cars in the service dept. I only had to pull up a few feet. Me feeling silly, I have my gf steer the car while I pushed it the couple of feet. Well, the parking attendant is watching this and motions for me to push the start button.

I'm like WTF.
Since I drove to the dealer, I think I would know how to start my own car!
Anyway, it was funny.

My boss was getting a hands free car kit installed in his Mini at work, and needed to move my car into another spot.
As he was walking to the car I thought I better tell him how to get it into reverse and phoned him.

It didn't occur to me to tell him he needed to press the start button to start it.

He came back and said "I spend 5 minutes trying to turn the key and pressing everything I could find before I got it started....you didn't tell me about the red start button".

I then told him it was lucky he didn't need to put petrol in it.
