Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It was a beautiful day yesterday. 1. One snob in a 997 cab or was just clueless. 2. Friendly wave with a 997S cab with a beautiful sounding exhaust. 3. 993 cab nod. 4. Gave up on Cayennes..

POST 2Original post

I have never ever gotten a wave from a Cayenne. I think those owners (exclusive of the Rennlist members here, of course) are oblivious as to what a Porsche really is.

POST 3Original post

Snob? You haven't seen anything til you've been to Marin County Califonria. You can't even leave your door step without triping over at least three. 8-P

POST 4Original post

All the time! Most around here wave back. Lots of Boxsters out yesterday given the great weather.

POST 5Original post

Got a few waves yesterday, saw about 4 911's and a Cayman. But then again we'd only see each other at the last second since we were on some very twisty road.

POST 6Original post

This is a sore subject for me - Old Rennlist Thread In Seattle the wave back rate is about 3%

POST 7Original post

Waves and flashes all around for the few of us in my area except for the Cayennes which I, too, have given up on.

POST 8Original post

Sometimes I get a waveback. Mostly not from Boxsters.

POST 9Original post

Part of the problem is ID. The Porsche lineup makes it a lot harder to identify another Porsche early enough to react. When most of the cars were just 911s it was a lot easier.

POST 10Original post

I have never gotten a wave-back from a Boxster, or Cayenne. Got several waves from a 993, Cayman, and 996 Cab drivers. It's really hit or miss. Sometimes I am paying attention to the road and forget to look to see if a Porsche is passing. Those owners might think I am a snob.

POST 11Original post

I wave to other Porsches when I am in the Cayenne or the 996. Generally, people wave back, although I have only had another Cayenne wave back once. If I am in the 996, I usually get a wave back from another 911, but not always. Porsches are fairly rare in Fort Wayne, Indiana - so we may have a higher rate of waves than other parts of the country.

POST 12Original post

Tried to yesterday for my first wave from a 911. Black boxster. Guy didnt even look over. I think it was somewhere in Ohio.

POST 13Original post

The older the 911, the more likely to receive a wave. Never got a wave from a Pepper, only rarely from a Boxster. I still wave to every Porsche.

I posted a response to that prior thread - abridged and repeated here: So my point is, no need to be angry - sometimes people just aren't looking at you. Geez, I know it's insulting when you drive such an aesthetically-brilliant car, but no need to internalize it - keep on waving... and see if you can personally improve the ratios with your dedication and diligence!

POST 15Original post

Gave a wave yesterday to a beautiful polished black Porsche 356 Speedster on the 405 yesterday. He had both hands firmly on the wheel and never let go ..

POST 16Original post

Today on a road trip saw a Red Turbo Cab(Midleton MD) very new very shinny got a big wave. and then on Rt 50 still in Maryland saw a red 911 going the other way stuck in traffic and got a big wave from him.

So that was you yesterday!!! I feel the same way. Sometimes I'm able to get a wave at the last second, but who knows if they see me.

POST 18Original post

went on a 250 mile round trip yesterday and just saw 1 other Pcar the entire time. NYC to an upstate destination and back.... No one waves back in NY

POST 19Original post

In the last 2 weeks. 964--wave, wave, and a head nod all to the same guy 993--head nod, and thumbs up 996 Turbo--wave 997--fail 997--fail 997--think she thaught I wasnt a porsche cayennes---never in my life 356---pulled over for a chat 997/cayenne===fail when it comes to being polite

POST 20Original post

I wave all the time but those snobs driving the Porsches won't wave back at me in my white Honda. You guys have any idea why this would be the case?

POST 21Original post

I give a nod or a wave all the time here. Rarely get anything back, mostly blank stares.. mind you Porsche's are a dime a dozen in these parts. Easter Friday morning scooted downtown to my favorite place for breakfast first thing, very little traffic, must have seen and waved at 10 P-cars. Glad to see them out though, once the cherry blossoms are out so to the Porsche's. thinking folks out for a morning burn before the traffic started up, is my favorite time of day. folks in FJ's wave at me when I'm in the truck, never think to wave from that ugly brick. Same thing I guess.....

POST 22Original post

Ah, you can never know when you are suprised - Waved to a Cayenne yesterday and got one back. A first, indeed.

POST 23Original post

Richmond is good for waves, great weather Saturday, and 2 waves, one 997S and a 964.

POST 24Original post

No worries on my part if someone doesn't notice or wave back. I've been in the situation of not seeing the wave or the flash of lights until it was too late to react.

POST 25Original post

I waved to another 996 on Saturday when I drove my car. I was snubbed.
