Leave them in peace, they feel embarrassed enough driving something as ugly, let alone being reminded of it !!

Here we go again...

Hey, people bought a car, not joined some kind of club. They can wave if they want to, or ignore you - their choice and drivers shouldn't be pilloried for that choice. Life's too short.

I've had over 9 years of Impreza Turbo/WRX ownership, and back in April '94 when I got my first, most didn't know what the car was, so seeing another on the road was an event. It's a bit different now.

I always nod or wave if someone waves to me (and I see them), but I don't bother otherwise. I prefer to concentrate on driving.

Don't tar everyone with the same brush. I've been completely blanked by as many people in 'classics' as I have new Scoobs.

Dangerous that is though.

You must learn to look right at roundabouts and both ways at junctions.

I'd always feel like a sad lonely fool waving at strangers!


But if that's your thing then enjoy it!

More interesting experiment is to wave at the boys from the darkside....interesting responses, most wave back some studiously ignore you occasionally get a two fingered wave but most at least smile, same goes for most jap high performance cars you do feel a bit of a prat though and I woldn't normally do it.
Have to agree, so many scoobs out there now,I tend to wave if waved at these days

Take a moment to think of us in the Sports, people just don't seem to care about us, let alone wave!

I am beginning to think Ann R is right about the Welsh !!
In 5 days visit to N Wales I waved at all scoobs (and there are lots !) and only got one returned.
Maybe they realised I was English !

I've noticed a distinct lack of waving from Buglys whilst pootering around in my MY03 WRX. Many-a-wave from the pre-bugs though... just an observation. Always put it down to bugs having a chip on their shoulder for having shelled out more than me for a worse car

No offence BTW.

"having shelled out more than me"

Depends on the deal you did... Mine was very, very good and I'm still delighted with my 02 WRX PPP. My Wife loves her 03 Sportswagon. We're both happy.

Cheers
