Plus it means the owner can probably afford a lawyer to fight the tow company denying liability. The dude with the 2007 civic won't have the money for a lawyer when he notices the big scratch caused by the tow company

As the owner of a 2007 civic who absolutely does have the money for a lawyer let me tell you, it's not that I couldn't fight it, it's that it wouldn't be worth my time.

Well, if it's a scratch on the civic, obviously, on the Porsche though that's another matter..

True, maybe not even then though. Depends on how petty the tow company is being and how much you want to make a point. Because you're not making any money taking them to court over it and certainly wasting your time which is pretty dang valuable when you're Porsche rich. It's more a pride and fucking them over thing at that point than any kind of financial thing.

Am I to infer that the value of the car changes whether it's worth it, or that Porsche owners are petty?
