I was talking to the receptionist when a lady went out to the Mitsubishi, got something out of it, then walked around the S 3 times, studding it closely. The receptionists told me the lady was a big boss from head office.

When she came back in, this boss lady announced to everyone with in hearing, "If any one who works here can afford that, pointing to the S, I'm going to have this office fully audited". I don't know what she thought it was worth, but she was obviously impressed. So many people have never heard of, or seen an S.

The receptionist with a grin, pointed out that it was the handsome, retired gentleman, [me], one of the staffs husband, that owned the car
Am I the only person who never parks his car top down?

Friend: "How much longer till you pay off your car?
Me: "About 3 more years hopefully"
Friend: "3 MORE YEARS?! How much did it cost?!"
Me: "About 20 grand..."
Friend: "20 GRAND FOR A MIATA?!?!??!"
Me :/

90% of the time, people think I drive a Miata even though I have both Honda badges up front and rear.

Akiba17, I don't leave the S top down if I am leaving it.
In this case I had it in view through the glass door, while I was waiting for my lady to appear.

He was wrong.

He is already right though, your s2k is the kind of girl that won't let you down buddy, and won't argue back. You can ride her anytime, and has gorgeous curves.
^^what he said.

Very true...

You will also be praised for suggesting body/performance modifications rather than being in the dog house ;-)

I was washing my windshield at the gas station while I was filling up and I hear a black lady behind me go, "Hey! Where'd all them white marks come from??"- pointing at my back bumper. (remember my paint is fairly fresh and I'd just washed it about 10 minutes before that so I knew there was nothing on my car)

I just laughed and continued what I was doing. Then she goes, "I'm just kidding about the marks. haha It's good too see you keeping that car clean. Your dad would be proud!" (I'm 21 btw...)

So I simply replied, "It's my car." Then she gave me the "you can afford THAT??" look.

Her-"Well, it's nice to see a guy taking care of this car. That's a really nice car!"
Me- "Why thank you. I do what I can"

I was at McDonald's once to get a movie from Redbox, I parked in front of the entrance and this little kid walks out with his father and said "Look daddy, it's a racecar!"

This was the best comment I have ever gotten.

Someone asked me if it was a Viper again. That's two people that have no idea what a Viper looks like.
