Maybe this is the subject of another thread but I seem to sense that other drivers have a certain disdain for the Porsche. It's some sort of jealousy. They can't afford one so it becomes something to despise. It's a class thing for sure. Ditto for BMW's. I'm not sure the Corvette suffers tthe same fate. It seems to be viewed as the working class hero of sporting cars. Lambo's and Ferraris are just so far out they seem above the fray.

I seem to attract confrontations in the Porsche that I don't get in my SUV and never on my Harley. Granted some of it is my fault because when I'm dissed I like to get in their faces. Especially dudes in pickups who think they can cut you off. This shocks and surprises them.

Its funny how vehicles elicit this class distinction. I never noticed it before but people suck.
