White FRS stuck in traffic with me this morning West bound 401. Some team stickers on your back window. Exchanged nods, then went right back to suffering in traffic. Were you late for work too? lulz xD

Man, i dont know what it is but no offence, BRZ drivers DO not want to acknowledge you or even wave back. But FR-S drivers, yup they wave, nod their head and appreciate me spotting them

But I also never come to Scarbaria...so that doesn't really help you. I personally find it's 50/50 for both makes. My trick is to always look for mods on the car that I've spotted. I find someone in a modified car is way more likely to be an actual enthusiast, and more likely to notice other cars on the road, and therefore more likely to wave back. I have a much higher percentage of wave-backs from modified cars vs stock vehicles. Case in point; an older guy in a firestorm FR-S that I saw yesterday afternoon in Bolton. I was right beside him in traffic, even got ahead of him for a bit, so there's no way he wouldn't have noticed me if he was paying attention. He got up beside me again and I looked over, expecting SOMEthing. Nope; he didn't even look. Absolutely zero acknowledgement.

I got a BRZ too and I usually nod or wave. But I agree, there are a lot of people who don't want to join the twins brotherhood. And I feel sad at that moment, coz I think these are the people who do not like to have fun with this car, to realize that its not just a cool looking grocery getter!!!

I don't think it's so much that they don't WANT to join the "brotherhood"; they just maybe don't even know that it exists! To them, they're driving just another car. And I bet those are the people that are confused AF when we wave at them.
