W: "Yeah, absolutely. Can't believe people would think we're that stupid - it's a Porsche."
H: "If you insist dear" Haver heard this worked for a friend once or twice

I can kinda give the rack a retro nod, but the bumper stickers are too much.

Luggage rack? Give them a 2nd Porsche card. That means they actually USE their Porsche for what it was made for. Driving and taking real trips.
You know what should actually be grounds for revocation of your Porsche card? How many miles you drive your Porsche.
This couple logged 76,000 miles in 8 years, which is more than most "polish with a diaper garage queen" Porsche owners can say.

I may have been too harsh about the luggage rack. I was going to say they have 2 trunks for their stuff, but maybe they're strapping on a pair of skis.
Also agree about putting miles on, but being in LA if they have a 20 mile commute 1-way, they could easily run up that kind of mileage in 8 yrs as a DD. Hopefully they used it for more than DD. The luggage rack probably says it was more than a DD.
But the bumper stickers are still inexcusable.

The clear bra that's all cracked up is a liability. Is it possible to remove it without ruining the paint?
