I give the thumbs up to any modified car I like, M3, VW, TVR, Jap... Although a skyline GTST tried to race me after a cheeky wave.

Ha was only playing, despite its followers of haters the look has really grown on me hence buying one and now I look at it everyday I love them and the only model I've not owned is the hawkeye (driven a few) just the hatch feels by far the more planted then any other and fills you with confidence to push it further. You won't be disappointed

Haha as I wrote my post I thought of you mate then a few post later you rock up with the above........ Awesome

i do kinda like the 4 door 2011 model - but i havent seen one in the flesh for some reason ? are they in the UK?
Being understated is great mate, it goes better than others I've had a similar levels of tune, would love to go out in one running mid 400's to see how it would fair up against an old classic I had.

You haven't seen that many as I think subaru sold something like just shy of 200 in a year or something crazy hence why you never see them on the road. I don't think I've seen one other than at the prodrive meet and there I only clocked 5 from memory. I've only seen two hatchbacks round my way since picking mine up back last may.

I wave in daylight and flash at night

I waved to a guy at the station who just parked up in his WRX Hawkeye as I entered in my Wagon, but he looked at me like I was a freak.

always wave and in the main get a wave back.

occasionally miss the other car and they get a belated wave at side window Lol

never quite got the waving to some scooby's but not others bit , to me a scooby is a scooby end of, its a friendly courtesy that costs nothing

When I first had mine some 5 years ago, I was amazed at the amount of waves I got and it took me a while to actually remember to wave back, over the years though it seems to be less and less people waving, particularly newage drivers don't seem to like waving back in my experience. Have spent that many nights crying myself to sleep about no return wave that I just don't bother anymore....

If I see ya in a Scoob I'll wave, don't care which one you have.
I think we wave at each other because we feel like a family.
Being a biker too, it just seems normal.

I have waved whilst being in the Civic and not the Scoob, I forget and it happens so quickly.
It might have something to do with old age too
