They're good pieces. I write a lot. Not my main job but I've turned out eight engineering books and ghost-written a couple of novels. Ireally like to write. It's fun.

I'm quite surprised about your experiences - generally I find people more forgiving when driving a Porsche...! They seem to think "hey this guy is driving a fast car, so logically he's driving faster than the rest of us"... So in my 911 C4 it's all thumbs up, even in fast overtaking and ending up in front of the same traffic light 5 miles down the road... (I got the most brutal reactions in the last two decades driving a BMW 330i convertible by the way)

Getting cops to follow me (without having given them any reason to do so) seems to be very easy in my 86 944. I stay a couple under the limit till they come flying past me in the fast lane like they are ticked off I didn't give them a run for aticket..waht's up with that? Have also learned to read lips better ..stuff like "n-i-c-e P-o-r-s-c-h-e..." or "o-o-o w-a-t-c-h o-u-t ! " fun..

Haha, just the effect of having a nice car. Consider it as a responsibility of having a porsche

Don't know guys, I get the opposite. I have a 996TT, and driving down the freeway I have had people roll down their window and yell 'awesome car dude' - at 70mph (or maybe that was 90... whatever...)..

Never seen the negative attention though... But then there is that whole thing of "you attract what you look for"... so I dunno, does that make it your fault ;-)
