I was at work talking with some people about having to park in SF, and how sketchy it can be (a lot of smash-n-grab type break-ins). None of these guys knew I drove an S2000, and I generally try to be low key and mention it. But I did say that parking in SF really worries me because someone might just slash my top, since it's quieter and easier than breaking a window.

dude at work, casually: "Oh, you drive a convertible?"
me: "Yeah."
dude: "What kind?"
me: "Honda"
he pauses, looks straight at me and says, "There's only one convertible I know of that Honda makes... You drive an S2000?"
me: "Yeah."
dude: "Nice car, man."

After my buddy bought a 2001 ford mustang mach 1, I picked him up for a little "spirited" driving...He couldn't believe that the car has an I-4. After I parked the car he made me pop the hood.

Him: Wheres the engine?
Me: The little thing back there
Him: Where's the turbo? This has to be running boost!
Me: Dude its just a 4 banger.

(He points at my stock air box) I think I found your supercharger.

Me: You are a moron!

Was waiting at a loooong stoplight today. ~10yo kid walking with older brother. His eyes widen... he points... and I see him mouth "S2000" to his brother.

I smile and wave. Still sitting at the light, so I give a couple 9k

His eyes widen further and his mouth falls open. The older brother smiles and winks at me.

It was

Makes me smile thinking about it.

Bump for more responses:

The other day this chick in a Black MR2 on the freeway was weaving in and out of traffic trying to keep up and riding my bumper. I was like WTF is wrong with this lady. So our exit was coming up and my wife in the passenger seat gave the ol' WTF you want some of this look and we didn't realize what she was doing but she gave us a thumbs up as we got off the exit.

Also when my wife drives the Hot Rod she never realized how much attention the car gets and I am sure it gets more attention when she is driving it.

Took my friend's girlfriend out for a quick test run. Afterwards, before exiting the car she says "So you doing anything tonight?"

-In case my friend does read this, I did turn her down. And yes, this car obviously rules.

Similar thing happend to me on Monday. My friend's GF broke up with him. They are trying to be "friends." We are all hanging out watching the Illini wishing SOMEONE over there knew the heimlick manuver.

My friend said he looked the S2000, but wanted torque. He bought an AWD V6 shoebox with a metal roof.

Anyway after the game she looks at me and asks me to take her for a ride. He was RIGHT there, and was NOT too pleased about the situation.

I took her for a ride in the car, but nothing happend. Really, it didn't.
