In its Declaration on the Principles of Tolerance, UNESCO offers a definition of tolerance:
Tolerance is respect, acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of our world's cultures, our forms of expression and ways of being human. Tolerance is harmony in difference.

Re: When money can't buy you taste
Tolerance? Yeah sure I can tolerate: More power to the wheel painters. It's just when I'm p*ssed off or annoyed that I don't do such a good job of tolerating. (semi-kidding).
Reminds me of the Wild Pink Porsche on a while back. A bunch of boarders were mocking and ridiculing an otherwise perfectly good brand new Porsche because the "assinine" owner ordered special color in pink.
Turns out a woman owned it. She was told she was going to die because of her cancer. She promised herself if she lived she'd get herself a Pink Porsche.
"Tolerance..." it's a _good_ thing.

Look at it this way. It is a silver Porsche which are so abundant that they are invisible. Therefore, an owner who has spent close to a $100,000 for a car wants to be noticed. How else can you be noticed in a silver Porsche?
It's only a guess but going by the PCCB's that's probably a 996 Turbo S Cabrio. so more like $150k.

And for the same reason, since Ferraris are so commonly mundane in coastal SoCal , many of their owners are compelled to slap on vulgar chromed 24" pimpmobile wheels that looked like they were stolen off Cadillac Escalades .

So true....
Despite much popular exaggeration, am always impressed how few, even semi-acceptable-taste, <1yo P/F, etc one actually sees, even on a sunny wkend PM (let alone on a rainy wkday commute route
), in BevHills/Malibu/NwptCoast/LJ/RSF 
Most P/F buyers in these corridors seem to loudly advertise their generally poor taste via their choices of colors/girlie brakes/tacky aftermkt wheels, tints, lowering, etc/basic car "hygiene" issues (always amusing to see the extra-large fast-food cups&wrappers/cigarettes/pets, etc)....
