944 & 928's actually have a higher standing than 986's.
I'm sure a lot of it is to do with elitism and bragging rights.......
I'm, up on the rennlist 996 forum a lot and I would disagree with you.

Sure there are a few asshats, but most are good guys (and gals) and just like to razz you a bit. At the end of the day, a 986 is still a Porsche and many of the rennlist people have Boxsters as well as 911's

It's having a miata that will get you a really hard time.
Now that is truly a hairdressers car
