My Grandpa as we are walking outside my grandparents house to their carport. (Their Grand Marquis parked next to me)

"I didn't even see that thing sittin out here. I keep for'gettin how low it is. Your lobble to stump your toe on it if you're not careful." (FYI -> lobble = likely for you non Texans/Cowboys)

The car is about an inch lower than stock.

My Grandpa is 88, a real Cowboy and WWII Vet.
Lobble = Liable?
Yea you are correct. Sounds like lobble and means liable, likely, etc.

mellowyellow08, I like your story for making things up that it is your grandson car. LOL
I hope my future-wife will also appreciate my s2000 and know how to drive well.

I don't have an S2k. I have a piece of junk 1986 VW Jetta turbo diesel. But I really want an S2k and I'll get one someday. In the mean time, I just admire them and read about them which brings me to my story....one day I was driving down a country road near where I live when I saw a red S2k coming toward me. They turned right before I got to them so I turned left and followed at a distance trying not to loose sight of them. (It's amazing how few of these cars I see in person). The car then turned right down a lane that led to a mansion that is now a bed and breakfast. The lane split and he took the path that led to the mansion. Not wanting to freak him out I took the other path that led behind the garage. As I turned and drove behind the garage, much to my chagrin, I pulled into the same parking lot that he was pulling into. He and his lady friend pulled into a spot and looked at me. I felt like an ass. So, I wound down the passenger side window and the following converstaion took place:

Me - Sorry to bother you. (laughing) I don't want you to think I'm some sort of stalker. I love your car.
Him - Thanks
Me - I'm going to get one someday
Him - I have no reason to discourage you. It's a lot of fun to drive. I bought this new, have driven it over 70,000 miles and I've never had a single problem with it.
Me - It's beautiful. You take really good care of it.
Him - Thanks
Me - Well, don't want to bother you. Thanks. Have a great day.

He just smiled and waved and I drove off in a cloud of smoke. He was cool. She, on the other hand, seemed relieved that the freak in the Jetta was gone.

I was sitting top down at a light when two girls pulled up next to me, and propositioned me for sex if I pay them a dollar.

Really wasn't what someone said about my S2K, but I doubt they'd say that if I were driving a Saab 900 or something.

I wonder if they were really worried about the dollar. I guess it is the principle?

I guess she had to set some sort of price for it. lol.

I was like, "really? that's it? I've got one right here!" but could hear what she said because she was turning off the street.

Definitely the weirdest thing to have been said to me in general. I've had people ask about the car, where I found it, if it was really a honda, etc. But never have I been solicited for sex lol
