Default I am my Porsche

I love my Porsche – Part of the reason I love my Porsche so much is that I have come to believe that it represents in so many ways the qualities to which I either believe I have, or aspire to have.
I’d love for you to add your lines to my poem if your so moved.
How does your Porsche inspire you?

I am my Porsche
Moving through this world with Grace and Power. Able to slice through the gray world of monotony with a raucous vibrant roar.
Instantly recognizable in this world as something special.
Rare, as there is a perceptible energy in the air when one meets another like oneself.
Intellectually stimulating, having a technological superiority to almost all others that comes from never resting, never being satisfied with good enough. Always evolving and pushing the envelope.
Genetic lineage that has a rich history of success and defeats, good times and bad, but always evolving and forging to become stronger.
Confident in any circumstance, be it at the country club, escorting my Wife out to dinner, networking with colleagues, or charging down a straight at full throttle at the track.
Tough, not muclecar, tattooed, big muscled tough, but a tough that comes from years of making the right tough choices, years of honing and putting in the extra hours to get every detail just right.
I am papered and loved by those close to me. And when I’m pampered, I shower those around me with a euphoric delight.
When others see me in action (or at rest), often I believe they are inspired to become the best version of themselves so as to live the richest life experience possible.

Click the link below, or do a Google or YouTube search for "Porsche Are You Listening" - my guess is that if you have not already seen it, it will speak to you too...it was created for the 993, but it's true for the 997 too...

And when my 6 year old says "clamp him daddy" I am obliged to put the hammer down and pass the offending slower vehicle.

How about add the lines:

"My parts are outrageously expensive. Just try and buy a new electric seat switch. I will clean out your wallet, like some gold-digging b*tch"

" I will dribble on your floor and leak various fluids at random times. I am my Porsche, how sublime."

I shall now copyright that.

Sorry SBPorsche, no personal offense meant, but that poem scores very high on the Reek-O-Meter.

Can you ask your wife to add her lines to the poem?

I dont think sbporsche is on that level. Maybe he is just in touch with his lyrical/creative/emotional side and hopefully not into touching his cars. I personally am not into either. Matter of fact I couldnt even make it through the whole poem. Not my thing. But funny.

Can this thread be deleted before it is linked over at the Corvette forums?
