followed a black wrx, looked standard, from cannock to stafford, the guy was a bit ignorant when i pulled up next to him as he turned into riverway, wondered what i was doin with the thumb up.
obviously not a real owner.

Ya get them mate... usually newage bods who don't really know why they bought the car other than some vague notion that it may improve their sex life :up:



Not meant to be a slur though... just going on % experience wherein classic owners appear to be happier and less self-conscious :up:

I always dib my lights and wave / nod etc

danwrx1980

its not a worry to me its just i'm a bug eye owner myself, arguably the rarest model, and i dib at everyone, legacy forester and even the odd impreza!
had a crackin chat with an old guy who parked next to me in wickes in stafford in a forester, but then you get these **** who look at ya all gone out like 'what is that little **** waving at me for he isn't old enough to own a wrx?'
as it happens i own mine and it ain't no company car like the majority of mid life crisis tossers!

I get very few waves back when I'm in the wife's green Sport (classic) but have lots when I'm in my bugeye. Seems like people snub the Sport.

I always flash other Impreza drivers. Classic drivers and other bug-eye drivers usually flash or wave back , but I often get blob-eye driver's with their noses turned up looking at me like I am some peice of ****e or just plain crazy for giving them a friendly flash .

Squadron-Leader

From a blob-eye owners point of view I wave at any Subaru. Impreza, Legacy, Forester even Justy

I must admit I get a better response from Classic owners than newage (in my neck of the woods).... but please don't tar alll us blob-eye owners with the same brush

sorry sqn leader,
not tarring all blobs eye owners, just this tosser.
i followed him for 10 miles, and if he didn't notice me he is either a crap driver or needs his eyesight checking!
even if you normally don't wave at people, you must know that driving a subaru is pretty special as they aren't the most common vehicles on the road, and if one followed you for nearly 10 miles you would at least notice!
and i also notice that this guy hasn't responded to this, so he obviously doesn't subscribe to the leading subaru forums, making my point still further!

Keep a eye out for me, as im usually in that neck of the woods, im in a black MY04 WRX, but it looks like a STi with a Carbon Fibre Spec C carbon fibre rear wing, and Prodrive OZ 18s.

danwrx1980
