Whats the funniest thing anyone's said about your car?

My daughter has been nicknamed the "Ferrari" girl at school.....She told them it was "just" a fancy Honda, but they don't believe her......My car is slightly modified........:cool:
 
Walked out into the pariing lot at the grocery this afternoon to find an older gentelman wallking around my car. When I got closer he asked if it was mine. I replied that in fact it was my car. He said it was wonderful and that it was a fantastic vehicle. He said he hadn't seen a car like mine, but that was to be expected because it must be brand new. I told him it was 10 years old.:biggrin:

Look on his face was priceless. We don't have to go into the conversation that followed...
 
We were talking about the NSX the other day at work and one guy says "they discontinued it to make the RSX instead." The other guy says "that's stupid, why would they do that?" I didn't bother to correct them.
 
I was at a Honda dealership with my friend, shopping for an S2K. While going out to my car, this highschool girl and her mom were looking at my honda emblems and were like "that's a honda?" i said, sorta, it's an Acura. She said "It's so cute..." i just smiled and said thanks. i don't know about the rest of you guys, but i didn't buy this car because of it's cuteness... :frown:

Dont even remind me. Last week, I flew to Georgia and bought my car. My fiancee has seen pictures of it, but never really understood what was so special. So after being home, we went out with the top off, and had a blast. So much so, that she really wants one (YESSSSSSSS)

well...I was cool, until her friend came over, and she got excited and said "Lauren, you have to see his new car, it's SOOOOOO cute!!!"

well they go out, and Lauren has to put icing on the cake and say "wow, you're right!!! It is REALLY cute""

Makes my stomach churn just thinking about it :mad:
 
Friday, while I was in my NSX waiting at a light, the guy in the truck next to me asked if my car has four cylinders or six. I have never been asked that before.

The guy wasn't completely clueless...he said he has loved the car since Pulp Fiction and asked what year they stopped making them.

I have noticed lately that more and more people try to talk to me at stoplights when the car's roof is off.

haha this happened to me once... a woman said "that car is so cute!" and i said "i dont really consider it 'cute'..." she rolled her eyes and said "well i still think its cute!" :rolleyes:
 
Sometimes silence says a lot. Driving my NSX into the faculty parking lot at Southern Methodist University was enough to freeze the SMU football team on the sidewalk as they walked to the practice field. Great moment for a Baby Boomer prof.
 
I've gotten this a few times. It usually comes from a non-car guy who may be a little intimidated by the car, or the fact that I own it and he doesn't. He'll say, loud enough for everyone in range to hear, " It's a HONDA!". As if that's a bad thing.
I never let them get to me, I just nod and say "you're right. It's just a $90,000 Honda". Ron

Chick walking past my car looked at me and said, "WOW! I love Fararris. They make me weak in the knees.":biggrin:
 
At a wedding in 1998, a female friend came up to me and said, "so you got a new Corvette!"
Nothing too funny but that's what some people thought.

1) the other day when i was at in the intersection, a guy was just staring at the car and making this "whoooooooooo!!!!WWWHHHHOOOOooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" sound for literally a minute. awkward but yet funny. his lips were shaped like a donut lmaoo

2) at a local car meet, a guy asks
guy: what is the redline on those nsx's never knew?

me: redline's around 8000rpm.

guy: ohh i thought it was more than that becasue the engine is in the back...

me: .................(wow..)

guy: yeah that civic over there (points at a civic) revs at 9000rpm, and my bike revs at 16000 rpm..it sounded like it's gonna blow up.

me: yup...YUUUPP....( as i start to walk away before he lowers my IQ)

i guess ricers compare rpm's nowadays.. instead of hp's :rolleyes:

The salesman who sold me my car told me that if I don't get a Blow*** with the car , bring it back , it is defective.

I am happy to report I have not had any warranty claims. :tongue: LOL !
 
This was awhile back but I was making a right out of a parking lot on to the street and there was traffic due to a stop light so I was waiting for the light to turn green so I could pull out and this couple probably mid 20s in a beat up red prelude started yelling out of their car and this is how the conversation went.

The Guy: Hey, is that an NSX?
Me: Yeah it is
Guy: I love that car, did you get the 4 or 6 cylinder?
Me: They didn't make a 4 cylinder...
Guy: I know they made the cylinders
Me: (not wanting to correct him) oh... well, mines a 6 cylinder
Guy: So that means your engine is in the back, because 4 cylinder engines were in the front.
Me: Oh okay
The Girl: Yeah you should listen to him, he knows a lot about cars
Me: Yeah, seems it. Thanks!

than they let me pull out in front of them :confused:

That pisses me off that girls let guys get away with such stupidity :-\.
 
Couple of weeks ago, I stopped by a car showroom was talking to a friend/saleaperson. Was talking just next to my car. One of his customers asked if he can look at an NSX engine... so he walk right to the back of the car, while I popped the glass hatch. For a second he gave me a puzzled look and point to my trunk and said "I thought the engine is back here!" He just cracked a smile when I lifted the glass hatch and engine cover and realized its not where he thought it was. Had quite a nice conversation with him.
 
When the C6 first came out, I pulled up next to one with 30 day tags on it. It was the first one I had seen and I was getting ready to look at it and see if the dude wanted to race. :rolleyes: Before I could even say anything the blonde seat cover on the passenger side started shrieking. OMG OMG OMG !!!! Will you please pull over so I can ride in your car? The poor Vette guy did not look pleased. :biggrin:
 
some guy in a mustang was trying to get my attention. asked me the usually, i said its a fiero followed by its really a honda. he then said "wow ive never seen the honda version only the acura one, i like this honda one better" i couldnt stop laughing after that.
 
I'll chime in.....

So I was at south coast acura with my buddy...who drives a STI, subby dealer next door, we both needed parts. On the way out 3 Japanese gentlemen come out a loaner...2 of them were tourist, both of them said with a facial expression like :eek: " Awwww eenn esss sexxx Uh" I was busting up...thought they see this car in Japan all the time..my buddy just laughed and shook his head.
 
i once had a bum rattle out NSX spec to me at a Shell gas station. I was soo suprize he knew about my car. "dude that cars the NSX, V6 with 270 hp. thats was like a 90k car back 10 years ago. Man you must pick up alot of chicks with that car huh?" lol I gave him like 10$
