Happens lot's of places and I even get some of the newage driver's waving at me in my 96 classic. It's cool. A kind of camaraderie that you don't have with other cars.

Owning a Subaru is not just about owning a car but something much bigger,sit back and enjoy the ride

Oh & if you can get yourself to Chester race course on the 9th August then you will see what I mean
Good luck

i always wave at other scoobys any age/type even give them a flash on occasion !

it's a select club !

my99 turbo you going to get yourself along to the next tunnel run ? good opportunity to say hello to the people who wave and get loads of good advise about your car.

I'm a new scooby owner (6months) and notice loads of scoobies flashing at me when I drove the car home from the dealers, and thought "this is cool" so I started waving/flashing back, Although you feel like a tit when they dont wave/flash back .... o'well
