I think the 996 crew is pretty complimentary.

I'm closing in on the car I'm going to buy..it's an '86...but when I began my search I was set on a 40th anniversary 996.

In a perfect world I'll work my way through all the generations.

Wave rules from Pelican BBS-I have no affiliation

1- '79-98 911's get an enthusiastic wave
2- '74-78 911's get a wave of sympathy
3- Boxsters get a wave only if they wave first
4- Cayenne owners get a hostile stare or middle finger
5- '99-05 911's - see Boxster
6- Pre '73 911's get a wave and salute
7- 356's- see pre '73
8- 914's get a nod
9- 924, 928,944,968 get eye contact
10- "special" Porsches (anything not covered previously)
Use your best judgement.

well the guy who originally wrote it doesn't know his 911s .... first one should be 74-77 ..

\ PS i like point 5 , especially since you had no idea what it really was until it went past you .

I have a 75 that I've owned for 29 years and was told not to put any money into it. There are some experts who state if you have the 2.7 head stud issues taken care of correctly, that the car is a sound car.

I just had my top and bottom end done, so to those @ Pelican no sympathy here, just a wave.
