Whats up with that?

Since I have gotten my Suby I have seen not less than three other ones while driving. I have attempted to give a wave to every one of them but never get the slightest acknowledgement back...Wheres the commraderie at around here lol. Almost like people dont know about the Subaru wave. Its not like we are driving Hondas. I know I am proud to be one of the lucky ones to have a WRX.

I'm the same way with other Evos... if I don't get a wave back, I feel a little hurt. Don't take it to heart, think for the best and assume they just didn't see you If I'm ever in Sacramento, I'll make sure I wave I wave to my Subie brothers all the time. Mad love!

you must have gotten unlucky... almost every time i see another subie, and they see me waves are exchanged, but it does make me sad when i dont get a wave

I get a wave occasionally but I really don't do it much anymore. Even though we don't drive Hondas, WRXs are quickly turning in to the next Civic (ie: popular car for douches who want to race their homeboyz). When I start seeing them on the news in street racing segments, it makes me realize that the golden times for the small, unknown Subaru WRX, are gone.

No moving the hand back and forth for me. My wave is a steady and solid raise of the hand More commonly though, it's a thumbs up

I have heard, from a friend who has an evo, that when he pulls up next to another one they rev and try to race him. I was like what do you expect, it's not a suby!

And I am still practicing my "V" because my boyfriend said I look like a short bus rider when I do it....

That sucks but i have the same response. But I'm pretty sure that it's because I'm a girl and people probably think that I'm a mom or something (I babysit and sometimes I have carseat(s) in the back of my car.) I should get an I-Club sticker or something so everyone knows whats up!
