- Purists: Only spoiler-less CIS injected 928's (US or Euro)
- L-Jet owners: CIS cars and ours too since we are the red headed stepchild of the 928 world and we just want to belong to something.... (sorry Glen)
- EuroS Owners: Meh, our cars rule and don't need a silly title
- S4 owners: Any pre S4
- 85/86 owners: Any 16V
- 911 Owners: Those "cheap" V8 cars you buy when you cannot afford a 32V (which is what you buy when you cannot afford a 911)
- Non Porsche People: "Is that a 944?"
- Prius Owners: "Why is that gas guzzler still behind me? He can pass me using the right lane, I'm only going 54mph"

Whoa...didn't see that coming. OB is the trade name for a similar product in America. Whoops...

"Old Buggah" is a term of affection for 78 and 79 models. It's from the early days of the rennlist (Porschelist) email list. Coined by some New Englanders, I believe.

The "old bugger" term was originally coined by Jay Kempf.
It was back on the old email list in the late 90's (the predecessor to this forum).
He made a casual comment while referring to his 79, and it just caught on.
I'm pretty sure he would agree with the CIS designation/definition...
