I guess 911's ( at least one of the 996's I am looking at) are now poor man cars

Why do you people care about what others think? Cars arent status symbols for me, theyre exciting transporation/toys.

Wealth is nice house in a wealthy area. Having a 90k car just means you have good credit and a decent job.

I bought the boxster because I believe in the mid engines superiority. In my eyes, all it needed was a proper engine. So I installed one from a 911 and did some suspension work. I didnt add any extra badges. I just thoroughly enjoy raising eye brows at the local autoX and DE events
