But why does it matter?
Surely as long as you enjoy your car who gives a flying f**k what some stranger or even someone you know thinks about it.
Also there are plenty of people out there who honestly don't have a clue about how much one car costs compared to another, ...all these people know is that Ferrari means expensive, Ford means common, Citroen means French cheap cr*p, BMW means Rep mobile etc etc blah blah blah.
