these are the people that piss me off!!!

HERES a quote my Cuz sent to my from the G35/350z forum

o. People would pick the Porsche because it's a "Porsh" (intentional; nobody ever pronounces it correctly). People would pick the Porsche because it's a Porsche. When someone buys a Boxster, Cayman, or Cayenne, they buy it for the name (The Cayman and Cayenne S's are a different story). They don't buy it because it's a real Porsche, because honestly, it isn't. Porsche's name is about a race car built for the street. In other words, the 911 or Carrera GT. The people that buy the Cayman, Boxster, or Cayenne buy them because of the big "PORSCHE" emblem stuck on the front and rear. Not because they're high performance vehicles. Granted, they're extremely capable vehicles, and are nice in their own right, but nevertheless, they are not anywhere near the same level as a 911. In the end, though, they're just cars with the Porsche emblem.

You want a Boxster? Fine. Buy a Boxster. But get used to the real "car guys" calling you a poser for buying the poor man's "Porsche". It's like the 944. Not a real Porsche. Just a rebadged Volkswagen.

And by the way; Boxsters look nothing like 911s. They look like cheap Porsches. Want the "Porsche Effect"? Go buy a real one. Until then, get used to people calling you a poser. Boxsters are not real Porsches. 911s are real Porsches. You have no clue what you are talking about.

screw them i love boxsters
