poor man's porsche

Saying that the Boxster is a poor mans Porsche, immediatly identifies the person making such statement as uninformed, misinformed , and all further uterances by same can be interpreted as mindless babble of no consequence nor credibility.

I tune them out just as quickly as I do the Simpsons on TV.

Have you had this happen a lot ?
The only reason I ask is that you are local to me , and it seems SoCal people are more likely to give the thumbs or a positive comment at lights , or simply keep quiet if they don't like an automobile ...
I have never had anything negative said to me whilst in the boxster , even though I'm expecting the "girl's car" comment with the wheels ..

Its never happened, but I wouldn't care if they did.

I think its a car culture here and most people appreciate the diversity without being judgemental of feeling threatened.

Everyone has their opinion or is just trying to get a rise out of someone when they say something like that anyway.

I have finally seen another Boxster on my commute and we give the thumbs up to each other several mornings a week.

Other just look and admire, or want to race.

I have found that when I drive aggresive theres always someone else that feels they need to prove something to me and zoom by, but I don't see them having radar detectors and one day their ego is going to cost them plenty.

I had nearly forgotten that my spoiler has "PORSHE" sticker across it and perhaps they think I pop it out at them on purpose.

But I digress!
