Post Saw a 951, wouldn't wave back!

I saw a 951 driving home from school, it was silver with some kind of aftermarket rims, couldn't tell what. i waved at him when he was beside me and he just gave me this blank look and drove off. that was the first 951 I had seen while driving mine and I got nothin! I'm so dissapointed...

i never get anything back from other '44 drivers i see. ironically, the only waves i get are from 911s. the problem with the 944 is that it can be bought fairly cheap and so the people who drive it are not necessarily enthusiasts. the ones i've seen drive by are usually kids and they just wanted a porsche i guess

Every 944n/a I've seen has waved, but no the turbo. I'm only 19 and I wave at everyone! In a Porsche anyways...

I get waves back from 356s, 944s, 911s You people must just be ugly...
LOL, j/k hehe
I wave at a black 951 almost every weekend on my way home from school, near macon, have seen/waved like 8 times, but no response.
He always has the windows up, but he could flash... (the lights)

I usually get a response from 944's. 911 guys don't want to acknowledge my existence. So so sad.

Way too many posts about getting a wave, so here is one for those feeling left out - <img border="0" alt="[bigbye]" title="" src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" />
Lets face it folks, many P-Cars on the road are just transportation to their owners. I flash or wave at everybody, if you do the same it could become a fad. Oh and many 911 drivers can't wave because they are wrestling with their bump steering/over shod car to keep it in the rut infested traffic lane (don't ask how I know).

Seriously,dont be disencouraged,too many people just dont pay attention or even some..yes people SOME 944 owners dont know what they have in their hands. <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />
