Pete in DC - I can't remember what the Melange looks like. But I do remember the Mammoth Car's unholy shrieking horn.

#4-6 intake spark plugs. Do you think anyone who built this car EVER changed those with the engine still in the car?
A worldwide understanding that just because I drive a Porsche, I don't feel the need to constantly prove myself to every punk a$$ fool in his mom's hopped up *insert-name-of-favorite-moron's-car-here*.
I usually never bother with these people and 100% ignore them. I enjoy going to the track and autocross to hone my driving skills instead.
My feeling is it's a Porsche and I have nothing to prove!
But of course, even those things somehow become more of things we love about our cars than hate about them.

Wife -- "Is there any chance that we don't have to brake so hard?"
Me -- "You really have a choice with this car. You can either brake hard or emit a squeal so loud that small children cry in pain."
Wife -- "Take it in then!"
Me -- "I don't want the guy to chastise me again."
Wife -- "What?"
Me -- "He yells at me for not driving it 'hard enough'. I don't want to be yelled at again. Now grab your airsickness bag -- we're coming to a stop!"
