I was telling my wife about this thread, and on the way to the cottage today waved at a Boxster with no response, my wife laughed and reminded me we were driving our Canyon! Lol

Not a lot of Boxsters here in the area - so was excited when I passed one the other day. Gave him a big wave only to receive a big cold shoulder in return. I actually felt let down.

I waved at every 911, Cayman and Boxster I saw the first year. Few waved back, so I've stopped. I think the 911 owners look upon the Boxster as inferior, although an air-cooled mid-80's Targa stopped next to me last year and complimented the color of my 986 (Rainforest Green). I thanked him and said I'd rather be driving his car. He laughed, the light turned green, we waved and parted ways.

Oddly, I seem to NEVER see another Boxster when I'm driving mine. It's almost always when I'm in my second car (used to be Acura CL, now BMW 330Ci), and it would be kind of stupid to wave at them from one of those vehicles, wouldn't it?
