In the 1970's whenever I passed another Porsche going in the opposite direction we always flashed our lights. I especially though this was cool since I had a 914.
I still flash my lights, here in Florida, but rarely get a response. I know Porsche has many more models now but think we should resurrect this once not-so-secret hand shake we all enjoyed. Thoughts? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) |

I've exchanged flashes, waves and thumbs up with other air-cooled Porsches frequently. Rarely will I get any acknowledgement from the water-cooled crowd.
I DD my Syncro Westy and it's customary to give the peace sign to other Westys and Vanagons. Sometimes I even get it back from bay window buses but almost never from splitties. |
