I am still fuming. This was the worst first impression. In Chicago, they would have bent over backwards to make sure everyone is welcome. The first event I went to in Chicago, when I joined, I had several old-timer members welcome me, sharing with me tips on how to get more involved, and etc. etc. etc.

NER PCA here (according from what I was told by one former member and also some random threads on forums) seems to be elitist prick collection not open to anyone but Porsche people. And we expect other organizations to keep their doors open for us?
Well guess what, my buddy who got turned away today with me too (he brought his immaculate S2000) is going to be in the market for another toy this fall. Guess what impression Porsche people made on him. Oh wait, we are here already known as self-absorbed a$$holes. You not only buy a car, you are becoming member of community. Never heard of Lotus folks with that kind of attitude.
