dont you hate it when..

You wave to another Rx owner and they dont acknowledge you? Mostly girl drivers. Although Rx8 owners are the worst. Have they heard of a thing called roots??

Btw anywone else in the Anacortes/Mt. Vernon/Bellingham area wanna do a drive sometime?? Really hard to meet up at the Olympia Izzy meets bein 100 miles away and all.....:S

Quit being a ***** and bitching! Just drive it! SHEESH!

But yeah waving at other 7's and not getting the wave back is frustrating as hell, since you get a wave about 98% of the time. The only other community I have seen that is like that is the Jeep community. My best friend owns a Wrangler and is constanly waved at or waves, just like when I'm in my 7. It's pretty cool.

The older guys are always the nicest. I once came to a stop next to a rx8, i looked over and said "nice car", and he smiled, gave me a thumbs up and said "you too".

I don't know what it is with people in WA, but most 7 & 8 owners I see are obviously not enthusiasts cuz I rarely get waves in my FD from anyone... Get more attention from ricers...

I've only had the opportunity to wave at one RX-8 while in the FB, he gave me a thumbs-up. On the other hand, there was a dude in a white FD that wouldn't even look my way. I always get random props from old people, though. People who used to own one, or liked them or something.

i hate it when you wave to anybody and they give you the "stare...." I also hate it when its another rx-7 guy too, I think the problem is too many honda kids are switching over to drifters now....Dont get me wrong i like honda's, but theres the "attitude" that seems to come with the people driving them....thats when you say....***....

I only wave back if someone is waving to me other wise if we just look at each other I just give them a nod. Someone might decide to shoot the next time you wave, who knows.......Be carefull

I would love to do a drive once my engine is rebuilt. Unless I get to borrow the t2 from my dad for a bit in the spring/summer.

hey, RXzeben, i resent that FD comment, even if its targeted to a certain location, haha. i wave to all gen's and models that have a rotor under the hood. but it seems like only the older people seem to wave back or say "nice car." nothing against rx8 owners, but they all give me a dirty *** look if i flash the highbeams or pull up and wave. i'm not tryin to race you, i'm tryin to hit on u....uh i mean say hi to you. and the whole "associate with higher end cars" i dunno bout ya'll but i've had the WORST EXPERIENCES POSSIBLE with EVO owners specifically. their all dicks. but i gotta admit, it is entertaining to see them try and look cool when its dry out and destroy their trannys.

haha yeah EVO owners are losers, same with SRT-4 guys. They talk all the **** in the world... I know an EVO owner who tried to show off on the freeway next to my Taurus so I punched it and pulled in front of him!! Then he says oh my clutch is bad... But he had a new "racing" clutch... And keeps talkin about how he'll beat my FD... Yeah right, can't even pull on my Taurus and my FD walks my Taurus from a 60mph roll in ANY gear...
