Doh! The non-returned wave! He must also have a Boxster.

"Do you know what you are? You're a wave non-returner!"

Never had anyone in an old P-car ignore a wave. Guess I've been lucky.

I chased a beautiful 356 down 680 last weekend. Had to stop when my wife accused me of being a "Porsche stalker".

Man, that's just rude. Even Corvette drivers wave back. What's up with these Porsche snobs? It's our job to educate them so go be a Porsche stalker!

Some people aren't as enthusiastic about the car they own/drive as you are, that doesn't make them bad people.

He probably borrowed the SC from his more butch domestic partner, because his convertible rabbit was in the shop........

Could it be even remotely possible, he didn't see you?

There have been a few times I catch a glimpse at the last second of some Porsche owner flashing ro waving and there just isn't time to respond.

You gotta be kidding me! All the guy did was fail to wave back, and you act like he gave you the finger! Who the hell are YOU, anyway? Maybe he didn't see you. Maybe he DID wave and you missed it. Maybe he saw you first and waved at you before you saw him. Maybe he just doesn't give a fluck. Point is, who CARES? It's nothing. You should have forgotten it 3 seconds afterwards.

I generally don't acknowledge P-Cars unless they wave/flash first. I have a feeling many of the newer P-car drivers (esp. Boxster) don't have any compulsion or reason to acknowledge someone else driving a Porsche; some I am sure wouldn't even be able to identify an older Porsche as a Porsche. They are buying the cars for their functionality, the aesthetics and the status they reflect; not for the marque, the history, a hobby or social mix. Fair enough, each to their own.

For who knows how long, I THOUGHT I was flashing, only to finally realize that my flasher switch was toast & I was firing blanks! ;^)

I hope I didn't offend too many by my apparent unreturned wave...
