New Porsche Owner and New To This Forum

Porscheman, the Boxster-wave is usually nothing more than a casual wave as Boxsters pass each other, but the couple I was talking about were waving like they'd forgotten to take their Lamictal (www.lamictal.com).

The Boxster-wave is not to be confused with the 911 wave which is performed with the palm facing inward and only the middle-finger extended.

I flash the lights.. Porsche salute. Most owners of 993 and older 911s are friendly folk...

I have joined a fine club! My first Porsche, a Boxster S, Midnite Blue with Blue top. Love it and in two months have put 3K miles on her. As my wife likes to say, my Boxster is the newest love of my life...

See you all on the highways!

Yesterday as I entered the freeway at 78mph in my '01 6 speed guards red "S" with top down (a beautiful Eastern Washington day), I noticed an older (say late '80s or early '90s) blue Turbo Carrera coming up hard in my rearview mirror. I accelerated to maintain my distance ahead of him for about 5 miles before I exited the freeway. As I de-excelerated into the offramp, he pulled even with me, turned to look in my direction and gave a very friendly wave. I, of course, waved back, basking in the shared feeling of having this high speed sprint in a truly excellent machine on such a brilliant day with one of the very few other Porsche owners in the region. This feeling was diminished today, however, when on a city street a white Boxster passed bye and ignored both me and my wave entirely. Oh well. Had a great driving day anyway.
