I saw 3 GD WRB STI's driving around on Wednesday...popular color :)
Tried waving one of the guys cause we were driving side by side on south virginia for awhile...he definitely did not wave back. Had stock wheels powder coated and some COBB and other window decals.
How come every time I wave to you guys you quickly look away?! My feelings are hurt haha :)

I had to learn the hard way that only 1 out of 10 Subie drivers you wave at in Reno, wave back. In Norcal everyone waves.

That's due to the higher concentration of Subaru's up here.

EvilJanannigans 2011-04-02 03:47 PM

Yeah if I waved at every Forester, Outback, and Impreza I see I'd have one exhausted arm...and I assume they would all think I'm crazy. But I would think my fellow STI owners would be looking and waving back? Not a single one since I got my car.... :(

That's what I thought too. I don't have an STi but you figure turbo'd Subarus with aftermarket wheels and/or exhausts would wave back, but it's really rare. I do get waved at like once a year, but it's super rare.

Think I saw Cory on northeast-ish McCarran in Sparks earlier today

MPREZIV 2011-04-03 08:42 PM

Yep, didn't think you saw me.

JoeWRX 2011-04-03 08:52 PM

I didn't recognize you until the last second it was too late to wave haha!

100_Percent_Juice 2011-04-03 10:01 PM

Joe, didn't you get the memo? We don't wave to people unless they have a turbo.

GusGus91 2011-04-03 11:05 PM

I think I parked next to deans Audi at BJ's today?

Yea, people rarely wave in this town anymore. It used to happen all the time just a year ago. Now rarely. Especially when Im driving the wagon. Although since I put the new wheels on, I've had more people notice me, and actually got a couple waves today.

I had someone in an sti wave at me in the svx the other day. That *never* happens. I did wave back though!

EvilJanannigans 2011-04-04 12:36 AM

Well I don't know who any of you are in person but if you see some chick in a white STI waving frantically, please wave back cause I can't take any more rejection.
Although I'm getting windows tinted tomorrow so now you won't be able to see me :cool:

Well then that man knows his subarus! I've waved at you in the svx though. -_- ....but that could be because I recognized you. haha

Well we should be able to see you, because the weather will be nice and your windows *should* be down. :lol:

Man, I can't even get people in other SVX's to wave at me. I wonder if the guy recognized the STi wheels I had on the car.

Actually... it was a '08+ STi that waved the other day... was that you? I don't know that I've ever seen you on the street in the '08?

I think I've only ever seen one svx driving. I didn't wave because I was walking through a parking lot and it's just weird to wave not in your car.

Nope...the bummer is that I'm not "allowed" to roll them down for at least 5 days after the tint so I had to ride around, baking in the 75 degree weather today.
The tint looks sweet though :D

WRX06TR 2011-04-04 11:09 PM

Don't worry it's supposed to snow Friday :lol:
