Default What do you say when your passengers are unable to find your door handles?

The most common problem I have with my S2000 is my passengers being completely unable to find the door handle in low light situations.

Now, I'll admit- it's a not a very intuitive location. I remember my first ride in a S2k and I indeed thought it was a bit funky.

So every time I have someone new in the car I'm forced to say something. When I see my passengers fumble for the handle I say the line, "It's more forward than you think." I say this ALL the time.

What do you guys say when your passengers get entombed in your car and grasp fruitlessly at the tweeters and arm rest?

I always say that there is a handle on the door, and that they need to pull on it. This is of course sarcastic but come on, they are asking how to open a door. But I always think it is funny when people struggle to get out. have had a few people just climb over the door.
