Go figure.
I don't know were you got that I was upset? I just really don't understand the mentality. I am just a bit amazed at the psychology of other being hateful about my car. I posted here wondering if you guys had similar experiences.

I would say the jealous mentality is normal. Most people are jealous and ignorant, because they fail to realize that I probably paid less for my Boxster than they did for their truck. Look up the I hate haters thread.

(I can't believe I misspelled jealous )

I've gotten some comments about it from attorneys I've worked with. Usually it's something to the effect of "Maybe I should become a court reporter." As long as they don't get ugly about it (as in only they deserve to earn a decent living) I just take it as a compliment. One guy asked me if that was my BMW in the parking lot.

I had an older guy pull up to me downtown a couple weeks ago at a light and go "Some people have alllll the money." He was driving a late-model Jaguar and wearing some kind of ship captain looking uniform. He was laughing though so I don't think he meant any harm.

At least you guys won't have other guys yelling at you going, "Heyyyyy, baby girl," and hooting and hollering. So far I haven't had a guy tell me his friend likes me and has a big c*&k yet, which happened when I was driving my Lexus.

Unintentionally hilarious

That "Porsche is for cruising" guy is really funny. I mean seriously, has there even been a company more about win on Sunday, sell on Monday?
