I think the Boxster 986 I am about to get has less flashy looks and while a much better car than the Z4 I think just the emblem "Porsche" is what makes it stand out. If it was same looks but another brand it wouldnt have made such a huge BAM! if you know what I mean...

People are jealous in this world and they would love to drive a car we do. But no anyone gets what they want...thats life...
the Z4 looks like a soap bar on wheels!!
sorry just had to have a go, glad to hear that you will get a nice sport car soon

This thread reminds me of the movie Space Balls. When Rick Moranis walks into the guidance consoles of the space ship and asks the console operator his name Lt. ****************************,and he responds Major ****************************, and the fellow next to him at the console, Capt. **************************** he then asked the officer that walked in with Helmet and your name he responds Major ****************************! Helmet quips "What am I surrounded by ****************************s?''- that is like the fellows that drive next to Porsches. They have this insatiable thirst to pound our car by dazzling speed and questionable moves. Naturally these individuals are part of the Space Balls crew in their hopped up cars, Hondas with exhaust pipes that look like pizzas, 3 Series BMW are notorious at this, that is in the driving mode. IN the talking mode with coworkers when my wife bought me the car where I was working I was the recipient of many and numerous ill mannered remarks too offensive to mention here. Midlife crisis, this envy and that absurdity. One day I had enough after a particular nasty remark I answered "after all your nasty remarks and bad jokes guess what? I have the Porsche and you don't! Now I will go to the garage and drop the top and have a wonderful ride home.
