Hmm, I live in NJ so in a state with such a large population in a small area you can get lots of dumb comments.
"Damn, that's the hotest miata i've ever seen, how much that kit cost?"
Wasn't really a comment, but having a dodge neon try and run me at light was funny.
I've watched teenage girls heads swivel when I drive by, one almost rearended another car. Damn I wish I was younger and wouldn't get thrown in jail.
"Those have turbo's". Spoken as fact, wouldn't believe me when I told him it they only come naturally aspirated unless you buy aftermarket. Couldn't believe a 2.0L 4 cylinder could make 240 hp.
Once I was at the gym parking lot getting out, these 2 girls were staring at me... so I thought. I get out, start walking to the gym, and their eyes stayed glued on the car. DOH!
Caught 2 guys at the mall leaning against my car telling these girls it was theirs. I hit the panic button and freaked them out. The girls were still laughing when I left.
This car is so entertaining its ridiculous. Fun to drive, Fun to watch peoples reactions, and fun to hear the stupid misconceptions. And they said Barnem and Baily was the greatest show on earth... Liars.

Little off topic... then again maybe considering the thread on topic. I'm not sure how good an idea it is to drive down the road with your eye's closed....

Forgot about that, old lady at Honda while we were both getting our cars service told me that she liked my body style better then hers. As she was standing next to her green del sol.
So I'm at a cookout just hanging out, and we need to get some more supplies. Being that I recently bought the car, and I 'm bored, I offer to pick up the goods. One of the guys says he'll come with me. So he asks,
"Whaddaya in?"
"Oh, a little honda."
"OK, we'll take my bimmer then"
"Sure, just let me get my wallet"
When I reached into my 04 S he exclaimed,
"THAT'S your little Honda!?"
Needless to say we had the top down the whole way there.
I attended an informal network party at a friend's house one weekend and was the first to show up. Needless to say, the entire car was full of my computer equipment!
Some other people arrived later and halfway through the evening, a Russian dude mentioned that I had a nice silver Porsche!
A few weeks later I had just finished a lap of the Nurburgring and was cruising the carpark in search of a spot. Two youngsters spun around and one shouts, "that car revs like a pig!"
Some other time a friend asked me about the car, and I told him that it was a 4-cyl that put out 240 horse. "Okay, but it has some of those turbos." "Err, no." "Oh!"
One day I bought an ironing board at a hardware store and tried to fit it in the passenger seat with the roof closed. Seeing my difficulty, a man chuckles, "kinda small, eh?" Then I got the idea to flick open the roof, and he just stared as I drove away with the board out the roof!
