When I drove the car home the first time, top down of course, two neighbors (middle-aged guys) started running after me to see the car. It had just been detailed by the dealership and it glistened!

One guy went and told his wife he wanted one. (Wife wouldn't let him get a roadster, got a BMW sedan instead.) The other guy wasn't able to talk his wife into any new car. But he does drive an Infiniti G37.

A couple of months later my next-door neighbor comes home with a BMW convertible (sedan). She tells me she had to get a convertible after seeing mine!

Yea, but she got a BMW, not a Porsche!
