I equate it to this: Back in the day, Porsche had character. When you owned and drove a Porsche, you were in an elite group. You were one of the few... the proud. The car had sexy curves, and was instantly recognizable among all the square shaped american cars.

Now, I feel that it is not like that anymore. The newer offerings from Porsche are in their own rights are AMAZING cars (GT3RS for example), but they look so much like most of the other cars out there. To me, they have lost their sexiness...

Also, I feel that the owner of a new Porsche does not have the same experience, that we once had as an owner of the older cars.

Just my .02 Dont get me wrong, there are PLENTY of owners of new Porsches who are fanantics, but to me... its just not the same thing......

Say bye-bye to the wave.... to the headlight flashes. Its a different world out there now!!!
