I just had something similar happen to me. I drove the Z to my corporate office in Sacramento...tops off and paint gleaming. Within half an hour the buzz throughout the office was that "I make too much money." Later that day, the general manager who had driven his pride and joy porsche to work (always garaged & NEVER driven) moved his car to the other end of the parking lot...I think I gave him a complex when I chose to park next to him earlier in the morning...especially since I rec'd compliment after compliment about the Z...and heard nothing about his porsche ;-)
The coolest thing about our cars is that they really are the epidomy of timeless beauty. I'm constantly getting "cool car" from highschool kids and retired vets alike :-)
