just saw a white frs on atkinson in grayslake - don't see brzs often around here but seem to stumble upon a different frs each week. this one had a blond chick driving it. i initiated an in-car wave but received no acknowledgement wave back!

Happens on both sides of the fence. There's a guy who drives a hot lava FR-S near my house that I've waved to a few times with no response, but one day his girlfriend was driving instead and she waved at me.

I've had it happen with a WRB subaru that works near P&L. I've seen them a few times on my way over there. No wave back either. I suspect it will happen more often as these cars start becoming more common.

I don't think this has anything to do with some stereotype.
People are just fucking weird sometimes.
It could be anything from social anxieties, to simply not giving a shit, to just not as outwardly aware of their surroundings.
Some people just have tunnel vision.
Those are the people I always wondered how they make it through life without killing themselves or someone else.

I saw a red frs merging from 294 north to 90 east at about 9:45am. They had a silver rear plate frame.

Wtf so many people have wrb brzs around here and I haven't seen one yet😩

First spotting while actually in mine as well and only half a block from my place. DGM eastbound on cleveland yesterday. Acknowledging waves from both parties lol

Not many spotted in general here in South Bend so it feels pretty awesome, like some type of accomplishment lol

Yes. 17x9 45. But I'm running a 5mm spacer in the front. At full lock the tire will rub slightly on the strut without it with the 235 45 tires currently on there.

I also haven't done any camber changes yet, so I might need to go to a 10mm spacer if I add too much negative camber.
