Yeah, and those are the people who are the most fun at a party.

And yes, a "few folks" care. Very few. Even at a car event, (unless it's Pebble Beach or the like), most look at the concours display with a lot of weird curiosity. Ferry Porsche supposedly hated the concours crowd with a passion. He devoted his whole life to creating the best drivers' car and then some strange people bought them and instead of driving them, they kept them in a garage and cleaned the underside with Q-tips. Why not just have a picture of the car on the wall?
A few folks wash their hands 300 times a day as well. The point of this thread is to mention a fantastic car and an owner that actually understands the principle of enjoying life. If owning your beautiful 911S for 30+ years while driving it very little and cleaning it 2 or 3 hours for every hour driven made you happy, more power to you. I don't think that it did, based on your posts here. It seems to have made you miserable.
