I have never paid to much attention to the whole "R GRUPPE" love 'em or hate 'em thing. I deal with a few folks who are members and they sure seem like reasonable likable people to me.
Then there was the original story in Excellence years ago where they came across like a bunch of "average Joes" with well worn 911 hotrods. I have not looked at that article in a long time but I don't remember any one of those cars in the article as being standouts. Certainly not anything worthy of having an attitude over.
I don't know which particular member or group of members is being reffered to frequently in this thread, but, in any cross section of people there is going to be a few a-holes. Heck, there are even some here on Pelican from time to time......
Cheers
