^^^ Wow... Well said. I couldn't have said it better myself. (1+rep!)
It's true... I used to work for a Porsche dismantler and some of the guys that'd come in for the worlds cheapest Porsche parts would come in wearing the Porsche hats, jackets, glasses, shoes, etc and they'd have their "trophy" wife by their side, act like total hot sh!t cause they own a Porsche and then b!tch if they couldn't get us to drop the prices anymore! LOL (Although some of the guys that came in for parts were really cool)
But it's true, you buy a Porsche for status. You buy a Z for the value (and because you can't afford a Porsche
)
