Default Porsche Cayman driver gives me the thumbs up

Tonight I was just cruising along the highway when I see a new Porsche Cayman. It was red and looked awesome. As the driver went by, he gave me the thumbs up. Guess the IS-F really draws attention.

The other day when I was working at a company in NJ, there were people turning their heads at my parked car. I could see them from the window I was working from. One of the guys even took a picture. Thought it was interesting.

nice! i think the is-f is pretty easy to spot. last week i was driving on the freeway, saw a black is getting on the onramp and i could tell it's "different". indeed, it's the is-f.

i think the car was still being broken in, it was driven "mildly" but i think the road presence is pretty different from the normal IS!`

I have a neighbor with a MB something-500, sporty car... he was admiring my ISF yesterday. He said he really liked the sound. I asked him if he'd like to take it for a spin, so we hopped on the freeway. He loved the car.. Says it reminds him of his 2001 M3.

Yes Porsche people have more style. Did you read the thread where the BMW driver gave an IS-F the bird? Some people.

I had an M3 driver taking photos of my car right after I got it on the freeway. It was during non rush hour, so we slowed down and talked for a moment. He loved the car. I think that you'll see jerks driving any type of car, doesn't matter if it is a Lexus, Porsche or BMW.

On the flip side, you'll see true enthusiasts all over the place. When I owned a BMW M3 I can tell you that the majority of the folks in the newsgroups appreciated nice wheels, didn't matter where they were from or the brand.
