Porsches are the most overrated car ever. If you have ever driven one or especially worked on one, you would see why. I live in a rich ass yuppie community much like Aspen, and nothing makes me happier than smoking some porsche prick that has his trophy wife with him..
I'd beg to differ. And, I hate porsches. Porsche sells a powerful, reliable car that you can take right off the showroom floor and track it. I've have plenty of friends with 996's in the 650+hp range that were daily drivers, no problem. Only porsche I ever got a ride in was a 600 hp stage 4 gt2. I'd say they're underrated as far as performance goes, or not so much underrated, but the performance doesn't make up for the shortcomings in other areas when comparing it to other cars in its class (ferrari's, lamborghini's, etc.) If you want a european car that performs, a porsche would be it. What most of them short of the carrera gt and the gt3's lack, is a sense of passion. Yes, they're fast, the interiors quality is phenominal, but it doesn't have much character. I love all marques, but I have never really felt anything for any porsches. I've joked about getting one as a winter beater because of the awd.
