True, and thats the primary reason i bought my ///M. For me.

But let's face it, taken to extreme and to illustrate a point, there are some cars you'd be embarrassed to drive, no? That's more to do with what OTHER people think, or what you THINK other people will think that to do with you.

And at the opposite end of the self-conscious spectrum, whilst I really like my Zed, there are places I've been with it where I feel its too flashy ...

So some of it is about image IMHO, you just can't get away from it.
