Yep Porkers are well engineered, plenty of pedigree and very capable.
Two reasons they aren't for me;
1) Too many are bought just for the status symbol, not a label I want.
2) I don't like the way they look, no real change in ~40 years.

Nice cars definitely, I'd consider a GT3, Turbo or GT2 (if I win the lottery) but I don't really fancy any of the lesser variants. I was talking cars with a mate on Friday, and when I mentioned Porsche he said 'nah, wankers car' - this is from someone who isn't into cars at all.

Where i live & work they a very common car as are Fezzas & Astons.
Porkers are nice but not got that 'grab me' appeal. They have the same attitude problem as beamers driver round here. No indicators etc.

I could care less about the "image" or what other people would think of me if I was driving one, it's just the general Porsche shape has never ever appealed to me. Dunno why. I actively dislike it on some of the more pronounced examples to be honest.
