Ben c'mon, you can do better than that. Besides, I'm not sure what the point is of putting a few girls we can't even see in your Avatar on a Porsche forum. At least it was a pic of you in your previous (cheezy) avatar.
Further shows how clueless you are!!

I have a headache from reading all these posts!
I think there are times when it's a little wrong to show up in a Porsche. That's when I drive one of my Hondas (Going to fight a speeding ticket in a seedy area is one example). Otherwise, I drive my 911 all over, and never think "I don't deserve to be driving this car"! No guilt at all, especially since it cost me less than most ANY new Lexus or Infinity, or Cadillac!
That said, I NEVER call it a "Por-sha" - THAT would make me feel like a snob!

Strangely enough, a similar topic came up today. Several customers were discussing the Presidential race and kept bitching about "rich people that drive Porsches" making all the decisions. I had to bite most of the way through my tongue, but I did pronounce the word correctly as I casually mentioned that I didn't think that rich people in Porsc-uhs were the problem.
How do you pronounce Renault?

No Guilt....none whatsoever...
However, if I ever start to get anxious about where I left her parked...
I just drive by Coconut Grove and Sunset to check out the guys that leave their convertibles (Porsches, Astons, Jags, etc.) with their top down on the sidewalks....windows down too...they surely don't care...that set's me straight....

Ben, what do you do for a living if you don't mind me asking?

Only outside of work do I even begin to try. LOL I'm really not that flashy of a guy. With that said, I do have fun with the finer things in life while at the same time understand that it means nothing without being a good person with good people around you.
pharma doesn't pay. that industry is going down (for now). and i can't relate to the product since i don't take any pharmas (for now).
