The older air cooled Porsche guys are snobs and look down at any Porsche that isn't water cooled. The doctors and lawyers driving Turbos can be snobby, but that's not a Porsche thing, it's a "I want to look rich" thing.

Your friend is an air cooled guy. God bless them. Just let them live in their old school, narrow minded little club. If he's never driven a boxster at speed through a corner, he has no idea how much BETTER it behaves than his 84 911 with all that VW weight hanging out the back. He really needs to keep his opinions to himself if he's never driven a boxster.

I've been a member of the PCA for many years and attended their social events and gone to the track for high speed driver's education courses and none of the 911 drivers, including GT2 owners have been snobs. They're some of the nicest, most giving people I've come across.

Now those BMW owners are total pricks! (Drove one for 5 years as my DD so I can say that if I want in jest of course!)
