You don't know what you're talking about.
I had a 2002 996, and people would stare and mean mug the fuck out of me all the time. Anytime you'd whiz past anyone you'd get middle fingers, headlight flickers, and people would honk.
Now I have a 2007 C6 Vette. People literally give me thumbs up for the same type of driving I used to do. Both cars had exhaust work and were loud. The C6 pretty much has straight pipes with no cats. People try to catch up to me and ask me about the car. The Vette is more fun for throwing you back into your seat, burnouts and donuts & cheap parts. (Can't really do those things in the 911)
Average Joes on the road think of 911s and other European imports as big money, snooty type vehicles. Versus vettes that are American muscle that people like and respect.
I love the INSTANT torque & power of the vette more than the 911. I liked the "special" feeling of the 911 and the handling and driving experience was and is amazing. I prefer the 911 a hair more than the Vette.
I don't, eh?
spoken like a typical vette owner.
I just skimmed through the garbage you typed out, but I do see "vettes are American muscle that people like and respect".
lol... yea, poor dumb, white trash (and middle class) americans who'll never figure out how to OWN a vette (even though most could easily) and who'll be working for somebody else for the rest of their lives until they retire on social security (no IRA) and live on a fixed income and have to sell their car and move into a 600 sq ft 1 bedroom apartment when they're 65yrs old.
i.e. ignorant people favor the vette over a Porsche.
(ignorant, meaning ppl who don't know any better... if they did 'know better', and still chose the vette, then they're just plain stupid)
