Couple of girls at a bar that saw me park the car asked later on, " what kind of car is that... is it a porsche?"

Flattering... but I wonder what they thought the big "H" emblem meant?

If you want to listen to some really intense rock, check out some of the really good metalcore bands that are out right now: Norma Jean, Between the Buried and Me, As I Lay Dying.

This way, people won't think you're a dork and just think, "wow, that guy's music is effing intense"
Speaking as someone who listens to some pretty hard core and off the wall shit, I can tell you people don't usually think your music is intense, they think there's something wrong with you. I get it all the time. Oh well.

Sorry. Back on topic....

Drove to a local park and got out to just hang for a bit:

Guy in Z4:"What'd you pay for that?"

Me:"Not near what you did." (nicely, not being a dick)

Z4 Guy:"How's it perform?" (he actually said perform!?!)

Me:"It does ok."

Z4 Guy:"Very nice. Take it easy."

Me:"You too."

One of the nicer encounters I've had with the owner of a streudel-burner.

Hmmm let's see there are so many of them.

1. I like your car, it kinda looks like a shark.

2. guy: Nice car man, thats the new honda right.
me: yup s2000
guy: v6
me: nope 4 cylinder
guy oh really! it must be a quick ride
me: yeah it's pretty quick
guy: looks like it's a fun car
me: it is
guy:...alright take it easy man.

3. One time a guy in a 360 spyder top down, saw me with my top down right next to him and sort of gave me a smiling wave like i was part of his community. I think he thought I was in some new ferrari.

4. at the drag strip from announcer. " Mazda miata on the far side of the tower" He called it a miata the whole night.

5. stopped at a light and some random guy in an suv. gets next to me and says...
Guy: Hey whats that little window for behind you.
Me: (before I could answer)
Guy: because I want to get one
Me: ???????

6. Nice boxster

During lunch at a chevron gas station. Guy at next pump asked if the
S2005 had any changes over my year 2000. I told him s2000 is the model, not the year of the vehichle.

He laughed as his wife called him a know it all.

I was at a self-serve car wash today and was chamois-ing my car when this idiot next to me says "It's such a beautiful day. Why do you have the top up on your car?"
