So how do we get rid of this stereotype?

Its nothing to worry about. Convertibles will ALWAYS be "chick cars". Tony Soprano said the Boxster was a Porsche with panties. At my last autocross a guy who owns a GT3 and another who owns an M3 (both previous Boxster owners) said they still think the car was kick ***.
Usually the people who think the Boxster is a chick car or a poor substitute for a 911 haven't the first clue about actually driving/racing sportscars as opposed to looking at them in magazines.
why do you Tivo that show? its awful. How low has Charlie Sheen's career fallen from Platoon and Wall Street to a John Cryer sit com

boxster can be a chic's car, mom's car, pope's car, dead person's car, whatever, it doesn't negate the fact that it is one of the very best car porsche has ever made. those who doesn't think so either haven't driven on or haven't figured out how to drive.

Dont be concerned about this. This is Hollywood for pete's sake. The land of vapid, self centered idiots. Though I will give them that they are rich. The Boxster or any Porsche is a great car. So a Boxster is a chick car, so what is not a chick car - a gas guzzling SUV? Corvette (please)? Cadillac?
Aint no big thing. Who cares what others think. Did you buy the car for you or others?

I watched the show and thought it was very funny! As a former Boxster Owner, I wasn't offended. Afterall, this is Hollywood we are talking about. The Boxster is still one of the best cars I have ever owned! Just enjoy your car and ignore the ignorant.

Don't sweat it,
Life is easy if the wife can drive the car and enjoy it when the sun is shining....
...and you can compete seriously in the slaloms at the weekend.
it's the perfect family car !!!!
(now what can I do with the kids..?)

I got to see the episode tonight and it was pretty funny. I think my wife laughed so hard because every time someone said "is that a Porsche?" he'd say "Porsch-a" like me
(I still need that 928 t-shirt). I'm not worried about the whole thing, just thought it was funny.
Get them their own car. My daughter doesn't like driving the Boxster...or so she says. I think she's just scared something's gonna happen and mom will freak!
We waited until the girls were 12 and 18 to get the Boxster. We carpool to work in it and have an Intrepid for family trips. What's funny is the 12 (now 13) year old loves the Porsches so much she'd rather squish in the back of the 928 than stretch out in the Intrepid. Especially when we're dropping her off at school.....love the Porsche....be one with the Porsche

John,
My two girls are still 7 and 9. They like the car but they resent the lack of back seat !!!
It is a favorite for the school run.
When we travel altogether we use the volvo XC 90 which the kids love.
In September when the slalom season is over I'll probably go 996 for the 4 seats.

a long time ago i had a miata with a T3 greddy turbo pushing 14 psi... i loved when people drove by and yelled out comments like "is that your little sisters car?" ....i guess they didnt have much to say when i downshifted and the last sound they heard was the wooooosh of the blowoff valve before i left 'em in the dust....
but yea usually people that stereotype "girly" convertables that can perform are yuppies that don't know they're own @ss from a hole in the wall...
