A list of cars that wanted to race me in my first week of ownership

All I ever see is SUV, SUV, SUV, minivan, minivan, SUV, peeeck-up.
The midwest is lacking when is come to exotic sport cars..... we have lots of "practical cars".

And the Boxster is about as un-practical as they come.... I mean, it doesn't have cup holder!
I would put that on a license plate, but no one would get it.

I have to disagree.
In the realm of sports cars, Porsche are by far the most practical, especially the Boxster. In two years, I have never needed any other car except something to haul my tires, when they need to get changed. How many other sports cars have two trunks, can fit your golf clubs, have a full sized spare, can fit a keg in the front trunk, and give you the option of a roof rack to haul your bikes, skiis, surfboard, etc. Plus, some people even get a trailer hitch to haul jet skiis, their track equipment, small boats, etc.

What I like to do when some nimrod pulls up to me at a red light and revs like they want to race is to completely ignore them and pick my nose. This such an oblivious and anti-competitive action that they either laugh or do nothing. I would prefer that people laugh at me than race me on the street.

Point taken. However, I never referred to other Sport cars, just "people and stuff" haulers as being more practical than a Boxster. I would be hard pressed to carry 48" LCD home with the Boxster, although easily done with any SUV.
