My wife has a Speed yellow Boxster, so not very subtle. She get let out of junctions etc all the time, but she doesn't drive like a knobhead, or treat other non porsche drivers as a knobhead either. Maybe its just the OP?

To be clear:

I wasn't saying if you don't drive a Porsche you are a knob

Some cars cleary bring out jealousy in people more than others a Porsche more than an Aston for example

No doubt I have ruffled a few feathers!

But if you drive a Porsche you are at least superior to an Aston driver?

So who are these knob heads it shows you are better than?

I quite like it shows we are different and better than the knobeads of this world!

Ruffled feathers? No. Exposed yourself to ridicule? Perhaps.

People who get aggressive because of the car you drive.

How do you mean? You are responding to my controversial thread. Who's in control here?

Right. Your OP makes it sounds like you think the car makes you look better than the knob heads.

But what you mean is that you enjoy not being let out at junctions and you like kids swearing at you because it shows you what knobs they are.

Good come back!

The majority of people don't let others out at junctions - regardless of the car.

I love Porsches, even the Cayenne.

So no OP, people aren't discriminating against you specifically due to jealousy around your leased Cayenne.

Although they may be jealous of your spare £50k and/or annoyed at the way you ask questions that have already been answered 7,345 times.

How do you know the OP's Cayenne is leased and why does this make any difference?

Definitly noticed a lot of negative sentiment from other road users when I had my Boxster (even had a white van driver spit into it). Complete opposite to the reaction now I'm in the Sagaris. OP, get a better car.

Perhaps the ugliness of your Cayenne has made the kids cry and the parents don't what to let you out so they don't have to stare at it's bloated arse for the next 10 minutes!

Nail, head.

Because someone who bought one new, with cash, would not care what the best used sports car for 50k was.

fking hell - lighten up.

The OP stated that his Cayenne made him feel superior to other knobheads as if the car some way elevated his social status.

I'd imagine that the majority of Cayennes are leased nowadays and therefore, whilst still a lovely automobile, not something which demonstrates how wealthy/successful/fabulous you are anymore but rather how much credit you're happy to expose yourself to.

For the record, I'm all for leased cars and completely understand why people opt for them.

The old Seat Ibiza had a Porsche badge on it as well, as do various fashion items like sunglasses. That makes them Porsches for me!
