I guess it's what's inside...
 

So today I went to lunch with some of my lawyer friends, and I drove my Honda (yes, my other car is a Civic). We often have these silly little discussions about who drives a better car -- they drive an S2000 and a WRX, respectively. Well, after lunch, we went out to the parking lot and he fired up his little S2000, and I just laughed out loud, because the little 200hp 4-banger in his sports car sounded exactly like the little 100hp 4-banger in my 16 year old 4-door family car.

But then, I guess, he got the last laugh -- it was a sunny day, and though we were all driving to the same place, the one relatively attractive female in the group decided to ride with him. <sigh>

I don't know why I bothered sharing this, though it seems like there's an important principle here somewhere, and it just seems like this crowd would get a kick out of it, somehow.

I don't see those S2000's too often here, but I happened to be driving alongside one the other day. I realize the performance is good and all that, but it looks like .... well .... a Honda. Same thing with the WRX for that matter .... it looks like ..... well ..... a Subaru for christ's sake! :D

You're right, there IS an important concept there somewhere.

What did she look like?

I see SO many of those things in this area. At distance I keep thinking I'm seeing Boxsters. Then again, my area is infested with Boxsters too. :rolleyes:

I think you answered your own question. It was probably the "convertible factor". It was a nice day, and there was an option to go someplace in an open-top car. Case closed! :D

I'd almost guarantee if you had a cab, she would have gone with you. :cool:

The bio-sociology of sexual attraction is both fascinating and terrifying.

Who was discretely stuffing her with dollar bills in the front seat... and who cares?

A hand in the bush is worth two of the birds.

Plow a field: use a hoe, or a tractor, depending on the situation.

Eric, I'm sure you're right. The top down on a sunny day just can't be refused, I suppose. My next car will be a Targa. ;)

Moses -- I'll cast my vote on terrifying. :)

John -- Dollar bills ... good call, I'll have to remember that for next time. <smirk> That's actually not at all a bad idea.
