yes very true as nice as the S2000 may be, its still a Honda.
No girl has ever said to me "oh you have a HOnda?"

I've had at least a half dozen female friends and coworkers remark on my owning "a Porsche"
Like one girl at the car wash, she said to her boyfriend "that's a nice car! Porsche?" and her boyfriend didn't look so happy and got into his Accord with her. sorry.
The funny thing is that from Autocross racing I got so used to seeing Porsche 911's and Boxsters (S,Turbo's,GT3's) that I believed that someone owning a Porsche was common.
I got to know more people with Porsche's than people with sportscars in general!

Well aparently I was living in another "world" because in only two months of owning the Boxster I have lost count how many times people have said "nice car man" or just pointed a finger. The other day I saw a couple of kids on BMX bikes following me, they looked like they were 12 years old and one kid said "yeah look at the trunk, its the S".
