Talking I'm CONFUSED!! 4 LOT's OF porsche have waved to me in two weeks

In two weeks of owning my 320R I've had 4 porsche owners have gone out of their way to give me a wave or the "Nod"

Are they confused or am I LOL

I've actually had loads more thumbs up from non scooby owners

Porche owners love a good glance at scoobys, but then again so do Golf owners

Perhaps the new saloon with the low level spoiler has won them over. I my self have had a few porches ,but thought it would be a little risky to wave at Subaru's while driving the Porsche as they might think i was taking the ****.

Maybe there should be a 'Horizontally Opposed Engine Club'. 8-)

Rule 1:No Citroen 2cv's.

Ha. Only on Friday, I was waiting a traff lights, and this lad in a Golf drove slowly past with his head and arm out the window just staring for ages.

But I think he was copping a gawp at the alloys more than anything.
