I was talking about this with the little lady yesterday. When you have an enthusiast car, you kind of belong to a community, and that usually doesn't just include the exact model as yours. For example, with the RX-8 it was other 8's first, then other rotaries, and finally you'd feel a little comradery with modded 3's and MX-5's.

With my 86, obviously other twins/tripplets… but what after that. Should I give STI drivers a wave? Scion drivers? Supra drivers? Prius drivers? I feel a little lost... who is my family?

I wave at WRX/STI drivers and get plenty of waves back. But then, we're Iowa nice up here.

And to the OP, nice looking car!

I find it's worse with the WRX drivers.. maybe because of the lower price tag, but I get a lot of people trying to race me, or asking why my cars not lower. Occasionally I'll get "that's not a real subaru its not awd". or that I should of bought a real car

Nice build. I like the body kit and the front is actually pretty sick. Not sure if I like the slammed look.
