I got stuck in traffic and I had a kid running alongside the car with his camera phone on the way in to work today. He was grinning like a Cheshire cat and giving it I think sometimes being surrounded by all the exotica on PH you forget the effect these cars can have on mere mortals. Quite made my morning it did

Anyone else experience this?

I get it if I take the Porsche to pick the kids up at school....
I remember once picking the lad up in the GT2 - he became the most popular kid in school overnight....!

Even my lowly Boxster gets attention.



Its the colour. Never got any in my Lapis Blue car. Guard's Red really does scream look-at-me. It can be a problem sometimes. Other times its really good fun...

Are you sure it was the car and not you? For all you know, his school might have been running a "spot the hairdresser" competition and he got you mixed up with Nicky Clarke
