It isn't about being prestigious. It's about getting someone to like riding. You're far more likely to keep riding if it's something that doesn't seem like a chore because you're riding a piece of ****. What would you have more fun driving to work in: a Porsche 911 or a Chevy Aveo? You bought the equivalent of the Chevy, and we are trying to convince you that, though you may not need the Porsche, you could at least get a used Cadillac or a new Buick. Make sense?
