As for point 2., I was trying to be brief with my response. Sure, there are plenty of esoteric, intangible reasons to purchase one comparable item over another aside from name cache... I was going with an obvious analogy.
While I've never owned a Porsche, I've had plenty of opportunities to log seat time at SCCA and PCA events, so I think I get it.

From the porsche owners I have talked to, it's also about the experience. Go service your nissan, then go service your porsche. Two ENTIRELY different dealership experiences based on what I have seen/been told by people who did both. Owning a Porsche is like showing up with a Black Centurian. Everyone makes sure you get the BEST they have to offer. Owning a Z, is, well, it's a nissan. The coffee is to the left, and I think there are some old magazines for you in the corner. Be a few hours.

Actually, when I took it to Chevy, they paid for a cab to drive me the 13 miles home so I could get some sleep that day--and pick me back up. Two new tires: $176. Cab-ride for 26 miles? Free for me. Impressed!

not bad!

at my inf dealer they give me a loaner making sure it's something nicer so that it's more like a test drive than a loaner... they want me to take interest. pretty smart idea, but hasn't worked on me.

it's been a very long while since the last time i took my car in for service... i think my G35C was the last one in to get it's first free oil change 6+ yrs ago.
