Re: No Wave
Quote:
Boxter owners are like sportbike riders. When I'm riding (I ride a supersport), every cruiser and tourer waves at me, NO EXCEPTIONS. Only one out of every 10 sport riders wave at me. I wave at all riders. But I love all cars...I don't wave at too many specifics because I feel all the others would get jealous and kill me.

I never wave to boxsters. I did get a nice wave from another '44 today though.

VINMAN, it's 'Boxster', not 'Bockster'. Maybe that's why they don't wave at you,

I flashed a 951 from behind the other day, then gave him the thumbs up as I passed. No speeding, regular pace of traffic. I think he got the idea that I was wanting to race, but I just cruised along, and made the same exit he did. Yep he won, but my oh my, that car needed a paint job.

He looked down into her brown eyes, and said say a prayer for me. Damn, it's going to be stuck for the whole wknd. Charles and Leftie.

i got waved at by a guy driving a Buick the other day. My first thought was, "Okay, do i know you, buddy?" then i realized his other car was probably a Porsche.

entertaining the idea

A few weeks ago I waved to another 944 while driving my dad's vette. It was a reflex before I noticed I wasn't in my car...lol

I like Boxster owners. They buy new cars so I can buy used ones. Maybe someday I will buy a used Boxster. I don't care if they wave. I just want them to take care of my next car.

#1. Wave to all other riders. #2. Wave to all children, and anyone who shows genuine interest in your bike. #3. Give them a good impression.

i wave at all Porsches, Cayenne or not. I have never gotten a wave from a Cayenne, never with a 996, rarely from a Boxster, occastionally from older 911s, most of the time from 944s, and I think every time I've seen a 914 he has waved back.

I think 2/3 of the Cayenne owners don't even recognize a Porsche sportscar when they see one.
