Anyone who frequents the Rennlist 996 forum will know that even among enthusiasts (some contributors on Rennlist actually claim to be enthusiasts), they really look down on Boxsters - they wouldn't give a 986/987 garage room.
944 & 928's actually have a higher standing than 986's.
I'm sure a lot of it is to do with elitism and bragging rights.......
