LOL!!!! I can't count how many times I've thought "Why is a damn iced coffee ~ $3", while my wife probably wonders "Why in the HELL are those Porsche parts ..."

I bought some knock off Porsche Flags from eBay. They were cheap and so was the quality. But heck, they look good enough for the garage wall!

You know you're a Porsche driver when instead of getting a large discount on the vehicle's purchace price you brag about getting a free $15 keychain.

O yeah. Forgot about that - I got a $4,200 discount too off MSRP (but I got lots of options so its all relative).

You didn't get one of these? It's just $100,000
_______
in 2002, these were FREE, i got them automatically from PCNA for my box and 996.
2003 and later, you have have to BUY them. i think 200-300 bux each.

Yeah, I've got a bunch of the ball caps....but I only wear them when driving other cars. I'm actually thinking about getting a Carrera plate holder for our Yukon too.
