Lots of people who like cars consume car journalism. The journalists always rated cars on maximum handling ability. It’s part of what made 911s so popular in the first place - they always ‘won’ the comparison. But the culture seeps in that only the max performance car is worth owning, even if the owner never drives a track or above 80% anywhere. The flip side of this is that cars suitable for other joys - open air cruising, soft ride for long distances - get seen as inferior. So much of what is considered the best are the fastest track cars or the fastest 1/4 mile cars. It’s a bit dumb really, but here we are.
My reason for not liking targas is the styling, but I still appreciate them and see them as different. I can see the appeal for those who like cruising with the top off
