Default Say it ain't so...

So today was a really nice day in Memphis, about 77 degrees on my way home from my girlfriend's place tonight. As the weather gets nice, I tend to see more Porsches coming out to play...

Low and behold, here comes a Boxster in the opposing traffic with...NEON LIGHT GROUND EFFECTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Say it ain't so. Why I ask, WHY?!?!?!?

You sure it wasn't really an Eclipse roadster and you had one too many?

Oh come now, those look real nice. The Fast and Furious neons on the other hand, not as much.

You know, one of the cars postd here for opinions recently (a C4S I believe... probably one of the ones Arr0Gant posted) had "ground effects" posted as an option. I thought it really sad that someone would do that to a C4S.... all goes to show that just because you have money, it doesn't mean you have taste.
