He probably stole it and thought you were the owner.

I was busting around in the silver car last week and a guy in a 996 GT2 waved to me... I got closer to the car and noticed it had Conn plates on it. I KNEW a GT2 owner would NEVER acknowledge a 914 owner if he was from the SF bay area..LOL
Sooner later Jen we will run across this guy and give him a rash of shit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif) B |

Well, we just won't send him an "Emergency Contact List". Then when he breaks down, we can all drive by laugh and point.
Sorry Jen, I forgot to mail you what I promised. Will try to get to it tomorrow!! |

A hottie in whatever she's driving pulls up next to me and isn't giving me the finger.......I'm going to ask her if she wants to go for coffee.......
Did you get his plate #? Reasons to ignore Jenny.... (besides the one mentioned above) Mabey he's a repo man (on the odd chance that some bank would use a 914 for collateral) He's a priest... Married... Hates all women..... He's a rabbit and late for a very important date.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I have to admit, I was driving my 912 around the streets and some goofy guy drove up in a camery and tried to give me the thumbs up. I just kinda ignored him. Ah, oh well. Im part of the whine and cheese group now, right? Im allowed to do this stuff.

QUOTE(Jenny @ Dec 2 2004, 04:18 PM) So, I'm heading back to work after lunch and see this green 914 zip into traffic from a side street. I'm flooring my truck to catch up with it, and after awhile, we end up side by side at a red light. His top is off, windows up. I roll down my passenger window, give him a thumbs up sign, and say "Nice car." He gives me a sideways glance, lights his cigarette, and that's all!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) This guy thought he was hot shit! He gunned his car when the light turned green, only to roll up to another red light. Again, we're neck to neck. He rolls down his window this time. I'm thinking "Oh, maybe he wants to talk!" And he proceeds to ash his cigarette out the window. And light turns green, he guns it onto highway 85. WTF?!?! Jen Hey sorry Jen. I didn't recognize you. It's just that it happens all the time and it's getting a little tiring. ((IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)) kim. |

QUOTE(Jenny @ Dec 2 2004, 04:14 PM) I thought 914s are not a real Porsche? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) In hindsight, I should have rolled down my window and screamed "That's not a real Porsche" or "Nice Fiat!" Jen Know the difference between Porsches and Porcupines?? Porcupines have the pricks on the outside!! Maybe NotARealPorsche but ARealPrick! Jerks can't be delineated by the car they drive, if they did they'd all be driving '76 Trans-Ams. |

Maybe ...he was ...ascared ... of the women-folk .... like youz one of them terrorist typez.... "better not make eye-contact" ... elsez you whooop his ass !
Nahhhh ........ bonehead deluxe ! I agree though, sometimes you just don't have time, or energy to talk for 15min about your car...again ! Had a older guy yell at me in the parkinglot @ Albertsons the other day. Couldn't hear him, as I was already in the car, I thought that he was pissed-off. Opened the door and said, "Huh ?".... he replied "what year"... " 73" I said. "Looks Real Nice"... says he... I am late to the office with my lunch on the front seat.... but hey...some old codger likes my car enough to shout-out, in front of his wife too! I am driving a dynomite dynosaur !

Funny thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) The replies are killin' me here. Darn tootin' if a chickie tells me "nice car" I'm gonna ask her for coffee. She doesn't even have to say nice car, it could be "what kinda car is that", or "your head's on fire". Hell, just rolling down the window and glaring would make me to forget where I was going.
His 911 was in the shop getting the winter air put in his tires and he forgot what he was driving :dhead: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Mostly only other wierd car guys wave, like old dudes with handlebar mustaches and cabbie hats driving old, rusted green MGs. |

I see PatW on the freeway now and then and I go out of my way to try and run him off the road.
Whenever someone waves at me when I'm driving a 914, the first thing I think of is that I'm dumping engine oil on the road, or my wheels are falling off. Paranoia. |

Oh, did I forget to mention it was all beat to hell? It wasn't like he was driving some prized car. Well, maybe if it's taken him three years to get it back on the road, he prizes it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Green with traces of either red, or rust. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I thought it was this guy I'd flagged down previously @ my work's parking lot (Michael Mann) who also has a late model green 914. That guy had even gone out of his way to go in my building and find the office I work at to say hi to me. Nope. Some other guy. What a let down! And on the subject of going out for coffee and what not. I'd just wanted to say hi, nice car, and join the club. But after consulting with Brian on the subject matter, he says if a girl were to pull up and compliment him on his car (hypothetically speaking, if we weren't dating (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ) he'd think she was interested in him. Seems to be the concensus here as well. Can't we just like their cars? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Jen |

Some time ago I was cruising down the interstate in the 914 doing about 75 mph and a sedan with four guys gradually passed me on the left. They were all looking at the car. As they went past the guy in the back seat gives me a "thumbs up". I thought that meant he liked the car so I waved a thanks, but now I wonder if he was hitting on me! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Oh, well...
