They like fast cars but for only as long as the lease.

but you back up my point. Im a ford and holden enthusiast and in the corporate world there is a fair bit of brand snobbery, cant really say you like falcodores.
Why do you care so much what other people think about your car? Drive what you want because you want to. Between your BBQ's, social circles and the "corporate world", it sounds like you let them run your life.
