Do you Wave ??

[mylamb]

I usually do a double flash but rarely do I ever get a response... even from other Boxsters! I guess that's just not something most P car owners do. I did it all the time with my MR2 Turbo & my 300ZX and got a reply all the time. Go figure.

Hey Wild1poet2-

I feel your pain as a former Harley and Jeep CJ owner who is used to waving at all other HD's (or usually letting the wife on the back handle it) and all Jeeps. I don't see a lot of Pcars here in VA, but when I do I give the double flash/wave depending on what comes instinctively quicker.

I get about a 50% hit rate.

Hell, I'll wave/flash at anything with a pcar logo- 911/boxsters/front engine/water cooled/air cooled even Cayenne's. I've got a few wave backs from Cayenne's, but usually soccer mom's/yuppies don't even notice. I usually wait to see if the Cayenne has noticed me first.

Most 911 guys, esp. air cooled tend to be uptight, snobs.


Still wavin'/flashin'-

oops... I just noticed I accidently posted this in the performance section !! LOL

I don't think waving adds much to performance..........

It may be a generational thing, but doesn't the quick double flash imply that someone is running radar behind the flasher (ie up ahead for the flashee)? Ever see anyone's brake lights come on as they pass, following flashing? Could get confusing...

Come to think of it, I don't see people do that anywhere near as often as I used to. It would be a shame for the custom to disappear---it's saved me on a number of occasions.

I wave.. mostly to the aircooled porsches. The watercooled guys just don't seem to "get it".. I will always return a wave from another Porsche though.
