Everyone, and I mean everyone, waves to me in the Spec Boxster - who doesn't appreciate a street legal race car!

Only 986's wave to me in my 996 (and yes, I wave back). 987, 996, 997, etc owners never wave.

I ignore the Porsche sedans and SUV's; First, they are lost in a sea of other sedans and SUV's. Second, not much in common with a mom with 3 screaming kids in the back or an Arab prince. Generally I feel that they bought the badge, not the car. I know that's not always true but I don't see a lot of Cayenne's or Panamera's in the canyon's, AX, or track.
