I would if I ever saw another one in the wild. There just aren't too many in my neck of the woods. I always give a thumbs up to STI's and nicely modded WRX's.

Ya, I do. I've only seen like 2.

I would first give props , then race. ..... but they were both going the oppisite way....

One of the guys that owns one, was driving by my neighborhood, and I just happened to be out washing the car, he stopped and we chatted for 15mins or so.

I started telling him about my SAFC, and he was like no idea about what I was talking about, don't get me wrong, he was a real cool dude .

He sounded like he had only had big V8's all his life though, he said the whole import thing was new to him, and all he used to do was just adjust the carbarator and go...but he was loving the Evo .

Its nice to meet people out there like that, especially another Evo owner.

I always honk or wave or give thumbs up but don't always get the same back. Most of the time people look at me as if I'm nuts.
I do the same to Subie owners and get more positive feedback from them.
The other day a saw an STi on NJ turnpike and I pulled next to the guy and he gave me a thumb up and of course I did the same.
That's a cool dude, not like some other aholes out there.

I second that.I used to do it all the time,but since some guy flipped me off I gave up.
Right after I bought my evo I was so excited to see another one and wave.I thought that we were one big evo community.How naive I was This is so sad,but sometimes I have a chance to see Scoobie guys and they know how to keep their crap in one piece.Why not us?What's so hard about it

Just my .02 cents
