I'm not sure if it's just me (ie. and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this) but whenever I wave to someone driving one of those newer technically superior cars that kinda looks like a 911, they don't generally return the gesture and seem a bit preoccupied with driving. Unlike me with my elbow on the window sill, window open - weather permitting or not. I can't believe it's a superiority/ego thing and they're snubbing me or that my 20 year old 964 is somehow inferior to their $60k+ dream machine, as that would just be wrong - tell me I'm not wrong. So I've come to the conclusion, and I can't help but think, that they're thinking, had they settled for a fraction of a second less in their 0 to 60 time and a top speed they can't legally realize - just like me, they might be bit more receptive to my gester and smiling just as much as the person waving at them in what looks like a real 911. At the same time, saved themselves a s*** load of $'s and worries that come with driving or parking such a vehicle.

PS Oh and I'm sure Jim and Dave would wave back cause I know where they're coming from!

Shot the water cooled wont even wave back to me when in the TT. Around my area you can wear yourself out waving with all the Porsches on the road.
