rules of the road
rules of the road
i've heard many complaints from fellow wrx owners that lately other wrx owners don't give them the "wave" back. i've also experienced this and i don't (sometimes) bother to try to wave. (waving without a response back usually does that to you...)
anyhow, i've came up with a few set rules that a wrx must have before giving them the "wave" from me. one rule is good enough, but a combination of rules give you a higher chance of that recognition.
1.) modded wrx. includes; kits, clear corners, BOV, aftermarket rims, daylight headlight removal and exhaust.
2.) window stickers from gruppe-s or any other group.
3.) an asian male driver. i know there are a few non-asian wrx drivers, but to my knowledge... none has even bothered to wave back. i also know there are at least 2-3 female drivers in the bay area but trust me, they have no clue what i-club is and giving the wave just make you look like you're hitting on them.
4.) a wrx that slows down to let you catch up or speeds up to catch up to you.
5.) and of course, if they wave first.
