Don't worry about what anybody else thinks.
Right!?
We just finished one of these on the JEEP forum..... which jeeps are "real" jeeps. My wife's renegade is so disrespected, you can't even get a "jeep wave".... haha.

To be frank though: porsche owners tend to be (at least in my 9 months of ownership experience) the least snobbish of any group. My first PCA event (intermountain region) the were a couple of 944's that couldn't have been worth more than about $3k, and a couple of nice GT3RS or some- such designation (I honestly can't keep track of all the levels of offerings) in attendance. Nobody seemed to care who had the most or least expensive cars.... they just enjoyed that we were all there. Ferrari people aren't like that.... hell, you show up in a $60k f355 and you'll get ignored and spurned by the 458/488 crowd.... ducatisti all dismiss non-superbikes (until you blow past them on the racetrack on a 2- valve air- cooled, haha).....it's all silly.

Porsche-philes figured this part of it out. It's made me enjoy the experience just that much more.
