I have had both now for years. I like having them both actually.
The Ferrari owner types can have a lot of tude but not much more than the P-car types. Parade is a great example. All of the people I have met at Porsche Parade have been wonderful. I went off to a Ferrari event (that was just the same as parade) and found that 95% of the attendees were wonderful too though.
Its the public that you need to consider...
When in any number of my Porsche's I can basically come & go in traffic unencumbered by the public. But when in my Ferrari you are overrun by all types. At a gas station very few will talk to a Ferrari guy. The masses will go out of their way to ignore you. They do NOT want to give the satisfaction to the Ferrari owner that it garnered any attention (at least from them). Same goes for stop lights. You can watch the peeps in cars around you talk about the Ferrari to their car-mates but as soon as they pull next to you its like they have blinders on. They look straight ahead and don't dare say a word. No way will they let you know that the Ferrari is in any way a topic of conversation with them. Its wild. An absolute oddity.
Then on the opposite end there are those who will nearly wreck into you to get that cell phone video. They will get inches off your quarter. To them the car is like a rockstar. I never get that in any of my Porsche's.
Look I don't care 'cause I have my cars for me. Check my "garage" here... I don't even list my Ferrari ~ or any other make I own. For me the worst part of owning a Ferrari is the general public reaction to it. But owning & driving it is a treat for me.
