It comes up all the time around here. I just answer "a Porsche 911". The response is either "wow" or "you look like a Porsche guy". Which makes me wonder, what does a "Porsche guy" look like, and are there any "Porsche gals" around?

No offense to any women on this board but, from all the Porsche people that I know and have interfaced with, the common perception is that a Porsche has traditionally been a "man's car" while other brands such as Mercedes, Jaguar and BMW are perceived as "feminine."

Porsche may have been percieved as a "man's car" in the past, but, that all changed when the Boxster came along. Porsche people find it to be extremely feminine and it doesn't help when 70% of buyers are women. Whether it was intentional or not, it does soften up the brand.
Come to think of it, all Porchephiles I know don't even believe a Boxster is a Porsche...which I fully agree.

I'm indifferent on the issue. If I saw a hot girl driving a CGT (highly unlikely), I'd probably ask her to marry me on the spot.

The first 997TT from our local dealership went to a female.....I'll see if I can get her number for you....
