Just because some people might disagree with your definition of what consititutes a REAL Porsche doesn't mean that they're A-Holes or cretins.
Remember Richard's definition of the word 'Bigot' ? - in some people's eyes, your statements may have nudged you closer to that definition.
Sweeping statements like that, especially combined with bad language & name calling, just adds fuel to the negativity sometimes displayed in these forums.
However, I do thank-you for pronouncing your opinion.

Well we all have the right to be offended. Yes, I think broad pronouncements like the one concerning a real Porsche was meant to offend the Boxster owner. I find that offensive so I dismiss a person that would try to offend like that as an A**hole and will have no more to do with them. I don't have a mission to "straighten them out", I just ignore them and take them for what they are. If you take that as "adding to the negative sometimes displayed" so be it but it was not meant that way but you have a right to your opinion too. Did you read my statements about Toyota & Nissan winning in the IMSA races? No disrespect for those marques, just admiration. Perhaps you"protesteth too much"??
