Nice, but possibly unhealthy...for your consideration:
From Wiki:

Object sexuality or objectum sexuality, in German [b]Objektophilie[/b] (OS), is a pronounced emotional and often romantic desire towards developing significant relationships with particular inanimate objects (like a Boxster). Those individuals with this expressed preference may feel strong feelings of attraction, love, and commitment to certain items or structures of their fixation (like a Boxster). For some, sexual or even close emotional relationships with humans are incomprehensible (thus few, if any, people in otherwise good quality inanimate Boxster photos).

Obsessively cleaning one's car, randomly driving it all over just to spend time with it, taking a myriad of road photos of an unoccupied car, waxing poetic about your unabashed love of it, then voluntarily doing without the object of your affection for half the year because it might get dirty. All this after ordering options like 20" wheels, PTV and a 20mm drop sport suspension, not to track it (it would get too dirty), but for it to be more attractive.

Disturbed behavior and motivations......perhaps?

I ask these questions, not to denigrate anyone else's choices, but to better understand my own motivations and desires for my next Porsche. At best, purchasing these toys is an illogical illness. :)o
