How do you greet another Pagoda driver?
« on: March 09, 2011, 06:07:03 »
One of the fellows who contributes to the News blog on the German SL- Club Pagode came up with an appropriate hand signal to use next time you spot another Pagoda:

I usually pretend to ignore them  then follow them from a safe distance until they park.  After watching them leave their car I can then pick off what ever trim pieces, gas cap or hubcaps I happen to need   :o

That's funny! (can you get me the center aluminum door trim piece?)

They always get confused when I also greet them when driving my BMW - "Do we know this guy?"

I usually only see them when they pull into our parking lot. If they're coming in to buy parts, I greet them with a huge smile !!!!
