most of the time when i see someone driving an evo, they get this straight face and get all serious, like im going to shoot them or something if they look lol people really need to lighten up. Whats weird is that most of those that won't look, are usually the ones that are stock and never come on here to learn a thing or two

Out here in jersey, a bunch of evo drivers will beep and give you the thumbs up. Then you have the young evo owners who dont even bother to look at you.

I've even exchanged the deuce with some M3's and a Ferarri Testerosa. The worst ones seem to be the STI's, S2000's, and of course the SRT4's!

noooo srt guys are awsome in Mass! some of them are pretty bad but them big turbo guys or 12-11 sec club guys... they are friggin awesome! Between evo owners and srt owners i have yet to find a real dillweed.

Edit: the ricey srt owners need to play in traffic (i refuse to talk to them) there are ricey evo owners too.. bleh

I noticed the same thing in everything I have driven, mustangs/mustangs, vw/vw, vettes/vettes...except for trucks and hondas/acuras. Not against them but they seem to be the only car brands/types in competition with eachother. I even get waves from sti's.

The "point" is also acceptable.

Ironically enough, I've probably gotten more props from people in other cars than I have from fellow Evo drivers. Sure I've had plenty of those too, but its amazing how well respected the Evo is even by drivers of Fords, Chevys, or BMW's.

Eh, it all depends on the driver. As long as they're cool and not letting their car hold them to some pointless grudge you'll get love from drivers of STi's, Evo's, Civics, Mustangs, whatever. Just the same, you'll get jackasses that have to rev up even though they're driving the same damn car as you lol

I admit, I too have been one of those jackasses. I've had bad days where I had no interest in acknowledging an STi or whatever...but I try not to avoid that.

Lol I could be one of those drivers I never even look at regular lancers...lol ever. As I said before I stopped waving and giving the thumbs up at the evos I see. They never give a thumbs up back to me. Now the STi and SRT-4 boys are cool I get along with alot of em see em around UTSA and stuff. Cobra guys are pretty cool...sometimes

I wave at every evo... only about a 50% return on my waves though. I still have yet to give into the riced out Mirages running around. That's just too much of a stretch.

It's A Jeep Thing, You Wouldn't Understand!

lol haha i had a Wrangler before the Evo. I use to always wave to other Wranglers, so i kinda carried it along to my Evo. I always give some kind of positive acknowledgement when i see another Evo.
