Respect from porsche drivers

All I can say is I was shocked when this happened. I was driving to go home when I see a brand new 911 turbo zooming up quick through traffic behind me and after a couple of stop and goes at the next couple of lights he gets right behind me and looks really anxious to pass me. At this moment Im js thinking, omg I dont wanna race right now and js as I thought that he gets next to me and guess what? he doesnt want to race he js smiles and starts going crazy yelling and giving me thumbs up saying he loves the way my car looks and how nice it is. This is from a new 911 turbo owner..... i was js like 0.0 well that said, that definately made my day my car has no body kit, no crazy front bumper, etc.

electron blue with rsr down springs with re amemiya rear carbon fiber light overlay, on speedline mag r black rims. everything is stock, cosmetically that is

Nice!

It's really about the person giving you props. Whether they drive a Ferrari, Lambo or Porsche. True car enthusiasts will always respect any sports car for what it is. I know I do.

Yea I ran into a guy that was about 40 driving a Z06 at the plaza who told me that a NA FC was his first sports car when he was a teen and he had alot fun with it and wished me good luck with mines.

Felt good coming from a guy who has a car with 5 times as much power as mines.

And you're commonly known as an Idiot ! Porsche.. ?? Really?

I could see Corvette for the similar Power and Body Styling... (At Least in the 90's FD & Z06) why would you say Porsche ???

I guess I stand Corrected, I think of an FD when I think RX-7 and 911 Turbo, of a Porsche, like previously stated, and fail to see the resembelance... but I see there was a time when the above statement was true...
