I was working on the car once and a foreman of a construction crew asked me what kind of car it was. After my reply, he then asked if it was fast... I replied "It's about 240HP fast "

Then he says, "Four cylinder, eh? Do you have trouble getting up hills?"

Some guy once asked "Who's Miata is that outside?" and a girl replied with "That's an S2000, don't you know cars? You're not a man!"

Female gas station attendant: "It looks like sex just sitting there!"
This must be related to the "penis car" comments noted at the beginning of the thread .

Some guy at 7-Eleven:

Guy: "How much horsepower does it have?"

Me: "240. . ."

Guy: "V-6 right?. . ."

Me: "No, Inline-4."

Guy: "Wow! It looks like a 6-cylinder!"

My cousin and I went to Safeway to buy groceries in my 'S.' I let him drive this time. He put the top down, so he was in "cool guy" mode. Meanwhile an old man in a old BMW approches.

Ext mods: Mugen wing, Ricks S emblem.

Old man: Excuse, me what kind of car is that?
Cousin: It's an Honda S2000!
Old man: Wow, that's a Honda? How much is it?
Cousin: $15,000!!! (gigling)
Me:
Old man: Wow, $15,000 for a car like that!? Does it come w/ that wing too?
Cousin: Yup, bought it at the Honda dealership down the street.

Oldman: I'm ganna get one! I want that car
Cousin: yah, just go to the dealership, tell them I sent you.
Oldman: thanks! i'm ganna get me a new car.

hahaha...my cousin could be a jerk sometimes, but i wonder what happend w/ the old guy and the dealership.

My cousin decided to stay in the car while i went to go buy some drinks at the store. Shortly after i come back, a couple children w/ their parents about 5-6 years old pointed out with excitement

Kid1: Wow look Mommie a Honda!
Kid2: It's the 2F2F car!"
Kid3: That car has nos

They're growing up soO fast. Kids are great.

I find it hilarious how all my female friends/co-workers will give me all sorts of adoring comments--most of which start, contain, or end with the word "cute"; whereas the males immediately say things like, "you still drive the RX?", or "you gonna' sell your 7?". There is even this guy from another department, whom I've never met, that said to me a few weeks back as I was getting into my new S, "Hey, aren't you the guy with the RX-7?" WTF? (>_<)

"Nice...what is that, a Mazda?" was one of lines I consider to be the oddest, only because back in 1998, when I purchased my first 1993 RX-7, a homeless dude walked up to me and muttered, "Nice Honda!". ("Nice Honda" became a catchphrase/compliment of sorts by my friends every time I would roll up.)

Well have not read this yet:

In 1 day I had 2 kids in the back of a pick up talking to each other saying "Wow, that is a real nice machine! That is a very nice Corvette". Later an older lady asked "what year is your vette?"

Last week I was getting my hair cut. They were making fun of how messy it was. Someone brought it up "its from that car he has." One apparently knew what he was talking about when he explained to the other barbers that it costs about 90+ grand, and has a sweet v-6 and the guy last week that he cut his hair for had one bla bla bla. Well I corrected him that it was an in line 4. Then he explained further to everyone that they offer it in 2 models. Mine which was the base and the other t-top version that comes with a mid-engine v-6.

I figure he was talking about an NSX???
