You are practicing the ultimate in Porsche snobbery.
944 guys are poor and live in trailers.

But that's ok since they're not real Porsches.

HEY! Not true! This one wasn't in a trailer court!

It just needed dusting off when I found it - nothing wrong with it at all. Well - it did have some cat prints on the top...

Well not a 100% true. I lived in a mobile home 35 yrs ago when I was Pvt in the Army.

As far as not real Porsche, well I'm used to this now since I've heard it for 20+ yrs of owning 944 turbo S. what's funny is I've blown away a lot of 911's with this car specially when they gave me a thumbs down but that's not important. What's important is we're happy and satisfied with what we have.

You know I've called 996's the bastard of 911's before. This is typically my response to them when they insult any of my cars. My reason or this is ealy 996 are only 911 from behind the driver seat. The front half is the same car as a 986. Seems like Porsche didn't know if they wanted to produce a 986 or a 996.
