Do you Wave ?? - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Typically useless to wave in LA. You better have a 911 here or forget it. I think when you wave to other Boxster owners you are just rubbing it in.

I wave. Most Porsches other than 911s wave back. It's funny to watch the 911 owners go out of their way to not acknowledge you.

I did a great 400 mile drive yesterday! Got a couple waves from a Boxster and an older 911. A Cayman driver blew me off.

I love waving to Farmers. They always wave back!

Psh,wave,not around here. Porsches are rare around here,heck I haven't seen one on the road for more then a month now. But if I find a fellow P-Car owner we have conversations at intersections if possible. Mostly small talk about what shops work on the car,autocrossing and such. If I see one driving in the other direction I wave and 99% wave back. There is this one a-whole with a NICE Seal Grey GT3 who doesn't acknowledge anyone.

Here in Lexington, its a little different, as I know or have met a majority of the Porsche Owners in town... and the majority of those I haven't know me from being on the PCA board and newsletter editor. But I always wave... on the interstate I will flash from time to time.

I wave... and it never fails, when I'm driving the miata I see all kinds of p-cars, and when in the boxster I see more miatas than usual. I wave at both when appropriate.

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.
