The responses have been very enlightening.....thanks guys! Clearly my attempts to spark your passion are misplaced. I mistakenly believed that there might be others that share my passion - so I put myself out there.
I'll be spending less time in the future trying to help and uplift those on these forums and more time in my passionate, amazing, real life. Thanks for the wake up call!
PS- I won't delete my post since I want to remind myself of it the next time I go to start a thread, or help someone with a question.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Our issue was you comparing your greatness to your car. You came off very conceited, a trait not admired by most people. I am not saying you are conceited, just saying the way you wrote the comparisons made you sound like you thought you are "it". Hence the many comments about humility being a trait you lack. I think if you re-read your post and maybe ask a friend to read it, you will understand the issue.
To all other posters, if I misquoted you in my response, I apologize and obviously feel free to correct my assumptions.

agreed completely. i almost thought it was a joke post since it perpetuated the 'im better then you becuz i drive a porsche' quasi-myth.
Not trying to start an argument here, rather I am going to try to explain to you the issue and why we all reacted negatively to your post. I do not think anyone is judging you on your passion for your car, although it is a little extreme and this is coming from a new owner of my first Porsche, which I do love and can't wait to drive again.
