Kurt I think you have a good point about location.
It is exceedingly rare in my (rural northern Vermont) neck of the woods to see a Porsche...and those that do appear tend to be SUV's and most if not all are just passing through. In fact the only other P-car I know of around here is the 85.5 944 that I'd sold to a local mechanic as a father/son project.
The "dark underbelly" here is more political - with the more extreme/insular/"unfriendly" elements ripe with undercurrents of anger and rage, which I can see on full display in the number of smoke-belching pickups with their twin (and occasionally confederate) flags fluttering angrily, and whose owners might view my Porsche as a symbol of that which seeks to oppress them.
But I cannot hold any of these folks in judgement because many are my neighbors who wouldn't think twice about pulling me out of a ditch were I to slide off the road during an ice storm. Plus they all have their own, and sometimes extreme beyond my imagining... stresses and issues with themselves and their families...with an increasing number of these, unfortunately, being drug related.
