After I was done telling that "blow-hard" how the boxster was design to emulate Porsche's first real two-seater mid-engine sports car, the 550 Spyder, as opposed to the Volkswagen Beetle-esque 356, I would have placed a "danger choke-hold" on his neck, followed by a judo chop !

That 'look down your nose' attitude starts at an early age. In 2007 I was attending a Cubs game at Wrigley "Stadium" as Jeff Gordon calls it. I got there early and had my 01 Lapis Blue S parked in a spot just outside. A group of teenagers walked by and one said "ooh, look at the Porsche". One of the other guys says "that's not a real Porsche, it's a Boxster". I let them go on their way but thought about saying "so you wouldn't drive it if I threw you the keys". But I don't have the stones that JD has or his judo chop ability.

With my current inventory, I've got enough invested that I could afford a rather high buck 911. But I don't want one, they're not my cup of tea. Different strokes for different folks. Porsche should understand this and not consider us a necessary evil.

Us locals call it Chicago's largest bar.
