I am Swiss but live in Michigan for the time being. I don't find the Swiss are aggressive drivers at all. In fact the opposite: electronic speed traps at every turn and slope makes it tough. The Germans? That's a different story. While I drive my Boxster very hard, I do "baby" it in terms of general maintenance . I change the oil and filters more often than I need to. I wash and wax it more than is necessary. I'm just less tolerant of mechanical and physical imperfections and problems than I am with my daily driver. I think when you read "babied" around here, it refers as much or more to car care than driving styles.
