What?

Some people don't like cars. They want a rolling living room. It has nothing to do with herd mentality and it shouldn't be depressing. Who cares what other people drive around in.

Herd mentality isn't always a bad thing - particularly if you are a gazelle on the plains of Africa hoping that Ms. Lion will go after one of your mates and not you. But since we aren't gazelles . . .

Many want all this space in their vehicles, and rarely use it all. I know we have back seats and rarely use them, but at least we have some quickness and style, which is the purpose of the car.

My rule of thumb is if everybody's got it I don't want it! Usually works out for me!

I like to be a little bit different as well.

Who cares?
I do! Minivans and SUVs are a blight on our roads!

I've got the same thing every morning, with my Atlas Grey awesomeness in between all the beige or silver minivans/SUVs.

O'rly? I have both and 3 small children, thank God for a minivan, most convenient car in the world. I love my Porsche too but can only fit 4 so it doesn't work for a family outing.

This is a typical scene at any school around us too, All SUV and Minivand with a sports car being extremely rare. When I drop off my son at school, all the kids come and ask him about the Guards Red Porsche, first question is always: Is it a Turbo?

Sadly it is not.

Great pic! This reminds me of the fantastic video by Patrick Stewart introducing the Porsche Boxster years ago....
