Maybe I'm nuts for saying this, but I think "...Yeah, but I'm driving an Audi.." can be the answer to most negative comments. For example:

person 1: " You flunked the midterm.."

you: " yeah, but I'm driving an Audi..."

person 2: " You're report isn't in my office and it's two days late.."

you: " yeah, but I'm driving an Audi..."

person 3: " you're still living at home, you have no life, and you are still single..."

you: " YEAH, but... I'm driving an AUDI..."

person 4: " my car can beat your car in a quarter mile, has better handling in the slaloms, and has better gas mileage.."

you: " yeah, but I'm driving an AUDI..."

person 5: " I guess you're pretty bummed about her(him) leaving you..."

you: " Yeah, I guess, but.... I'm driving an AUDI.."

person 6: " James Bond is driving the new BMW..."

you: " yeah, but I AM DRIVING AND AUDI..."

---> : ) (smile, you're driving an AUDI..)

I've had impure thoughts... that Z8 is a beautiful car- so many impressive engineering features to it (Aluminum space frame, 400 HP V8). If it weren't $125,000, well...if.

Anyway, don't think you can follow up that last statement with the Audi retort. The rest are great.
