Went to camping a few days ago.
I woke up and was getting ready to leave the tent site.
A nice gentleman with 2 dogs came up to me and said "you must be a very efficient packer".
I told him "it's not too bad".
Then he said "they stopped making a few years ago right? such a beautiful car".
A lot of people don't recognize this car, but if they do, they know more than you ever expect.

Had a guy come to my house trying to sell pest/bug spraying for some ridiculous amount. When I told him it was too expensive he responded w/, "Come on, you drive a miata...", while glancing over at the S and reading the side badge, "...I mean s2000". I gave him a death stare and I told him I definitely wasn't buying anything as I slammed the door.

When we were moving in to our new house, our neighbor came over and commented, "Yeah, we used to have a mid-life crisis car too, but we sold it." I was thinking, uh no, this is a whole-life crisis car! If I needed a mid-life crisis car, I would be driving something that would get me laid by someone other than my wife.
I think many in this community forget that most people are not enthusiasts, and we sometimes take ourselves too seriously. In reality, our car is slow in a drag race, and it will always carry the perception that it's girly, or a Miata, or cute.
But, we all bought the car because our insecurities about public perception are trumped by the knowledge that every time we jump in the cockpit and push the red button, something during that trip is going to put an ear-to-ear grin on our faces. Whether it's someone calling it a Miata, or your heart begins racing because you took a corner faster than you should because you knew you could, it's a good day, and a great car.

I agree. I don't take myself to seriously. We shouldn't expect others to know anything about our car. Where did anyone get off thinking everyone should know about this car right? I'm glad they don't. If they did every Joe would own one and it wouldn't be as special to me.

I had a younger friend (in her 20's) tell me my S was a mid-life crisis car when I first got it. I've wanted a roadster since I was 12. I finally got one. So I happen to be middle aged now. No kids at home, divorced, and tired of driving mini-vans and sedans that are mundane. The S is a great automobile. Now I want to save up for the HPDE classes and learn how to drive it properly.
