I used to absolutely DROOL over the BHMA catalog!! I remember BEGGING my dad at the age of 14 to upgrade his 230 CE with euro headlights + AMG package.

 

Those idiots there won't ask anyone if they need help - I'd rather go to the Post Office than Guitar Center - and fortunately the WEB and UPS makes it mostly where I don't have to do either anymore.

 

It's funny because I wear all my stuff, t-shirt or hat and I could give two ****s. I busted my *** working and earned what I got so I am not going to be ashamed if someone cannot strive to their goals. If they think I'm an ahole for wearing it oh well because I'll be the ahole driving by them with my test pipes and turbos spooling in their faces. I love Porsche I have a wedding to go to, do they make Porsche suits LOL

ps. nothing like getting laid of because you have a better Porsche then the owner of the company

 

haha! do you guys ever get the "man, you have a nice car, picking up girls should be easy!" comment from guys?
I always wonder.. if these people had nice cars, would they drive it through the club's wall or somehting?
how does someone inside a club know what you drive? true ******baggery would be to go around telling everyone, and I know girls are totally turned off by that...

 

When you were 14........I'm suddenly feeling old!
Yeah, I was literally the kid in the candy store working at BHMA. Our parking lot was a constant car show. Our customer base was movie stars, tv actors, pro athletes and rock stars, and they came into the store everyday. We put out a catalog every 3 months, and I got to drive just about every car that was on the covers, my favorite was the AMG Hammer. Our best year was 87 when we averaged $1.7 million a month in sales. It was crazy good.

Treat a celebrity like a regular person and a regular person like a celebrity.

 

I'm A hole with or without the hat. Too bad I wasn't there talking to the college chick

 

To the OP. Eyepopping watches. Stunning. Love the AP. My taste is far more pedestrian (Rollie, PAM) but I intend to get myself a Tourbillon one of these days. Most people have no idea what your watches are and if they see someone wearing a Rolex or PAM they'll just assume it's a fake. Maybe it's a defense mechanism or a from of denial which makes them feel better about themselves. Whatever... whether it's a car, watch, hat, pen, you name it. There are going to be some snarky comments. You earned... wear it with pride and enjoy it. That's what life's all about.

I don't remember what show I was watching. Some newsmagazine maybe with John Stossel a decade or so ago. It was about personal responsibility and had vignettes about people complaining about sick building syndrome, teenagers who didn't like the idea of going to college before earning a big paycheck, etc. The funniest might have been some vitriolic responses from some very angry looking guy about how he much he hated anyone who drove a nice car. He thought it was excessive, flashy, and that the only reason people did that was too make themselves feel better. The hatred in this guys eyes were something. I have gotten looks like that when I'm in the Pcar. Oh well, I'm sure everyone of us has experienced a little luck, but have gotten where we are with a lot of hard work. Most of the haters wouldn't turn down a Porsche/Ferrari/Lambo if someone gave them one.

 

my respose would have been.

"Ya know it's true, I am an A- Hole"

 

 

It's funny how I used to wear a "Porsche is a 2 syllable word" back when I didn't have one at all. Now I am on my 3rd Porsche and have never thought about wearing any logo-ed gear. The only gear I wear now with logo's is for my business, which got me the money to buy all my toys.

 

Tourbillon,

I wear my Porsche collared shirts and Jackets every chance i get. Dont pay attention to them.. they're just envious. Im sure you're inspiring other teens to have a porsche someday..

 

waw, 10 pages. p-car owners definitely have issues with college girls, that`s a fact.

 

Interesting experience shared by OP... IMO wearing a high end brand auto logo (from lambo to Ferrari to P cars) is taken by many like your wearing your most recent bank statement on your hat/shirt etc... (assuming you have some a sizable account of course) Doesn't matter if you worked your *** off from age of 12 till now to earn what you have, people don't want to know you have more then they do... from cars to boats from houses to $.... part of life and agree it can be frustrating. Not saying it is right just making a point... the jealous have a funny way of thinking...

 

I got a Porsche hoodie that my wife made me and I love it. Anyone thinks anything about it, good or bad, can kiss my ***. And I'm an ******* with or without the hoodie or the car...I know that and I'm ok with that.

Which was the dumbest purchase I've ever made. I was at a lambo event and decided to purchase a polo. There were no prices on any of the shirts so I grabbed one and took it to the register. I figured it would be 50 or 60 bucks, but I was very surprised when the girl said that will be 165 please. I said but I only want one of them. She said that's for one including your discount for being an existing customer. I should have put the shirt back but I had already given her my card.

I only wear that one to car events LOL
