I get a lot of jealous remarks and shallow comments at work, and when I bought the car a few months ago, people made such a big deal about it I didn't want to even answer questions about it. I had coworkers tell me they are pissed because they are obviously not making as much as me. Once someone came up to me and ask how much the car was purchased for in front of the whole office, and waited paitently for an answer while everyone looked on. How rude can you get.

As far as traffic is concerned, Houston is pretty bad for porsche drivers. I mainly see three types of drivers, jealous people (kids) who just want to "show you up" in their (usually) crappy looking ride by doing a fly by or revving their engine with autozone exaust system, meat heads who would love to shove your head in their trucks 5" dual exaust because you bought a german car, and the normal people who don't care. I do NOT get this much negative attention driving my mustang around.
