The info is frequently relevant, and even when not, should be considered a matter of interest on an enthusiasts' forum...
I don't get offended when someone mentions they have a 3.4 swap, a Raby build,a cocoa interior 550, or a new paint job. But then I don't have a chip on my shoulder either, nor do I automatically assume someone driving a base model can't be an enthusiast.
Who took offence? Who has a chip? I just find it funny and silly.

I get that sometimes it does matter - when referring to the technical specifics - but my reference was directly to those that post about how their key fobs don't work or their top isn't working....but have to specify it's an S - which makes no diff in most situations.

I would say 90% of the vehicles are the same and having to tell us it's an S only really applies to a very small fraction of situations.

Just seems to be for the most part, an ego thing, which is just silly.
