Default Teh Spotted Thread

OK...seeing as how I always see other subies around and the drivers tend to wave when they see me I figured it would be good to try to find out who some of these people are.

Last one I saw was an 04 or 05 blue wrx wagon at about 99th ave and bell road, near lou grubb chevy...I was turning left and the wagon was also turning left toward the 101 on bell road...the driver waved at me as they passed...anyone?

I used to go there all the time before I bought my 55 gal drum of 109.

It's just west of I-10 on Chandler. Probably about 44th St or so.

I saw you about 2 months ago

I was in a blue WRX sedan facing east on Indian School Rd waiting to turn left on 24th St. I noticed a black XT going south on 24th St and when you were in the middle of the intersection you looked over. Neither one of us waved but you could kinda tell we were both thinking about it. Then as you passed through the intersection I saw your plate said "VSB" so that's how I knew it was you.

That's the only time I've know I've seen someone from here.

Another thing that sucks is I always see a couple of wrx's on the I-10 westbound on the way home from work...normally around 4pm or so...One is an 02 or 03 sedona red one, with looks like 17's (black) and exhaust...the other one is a sonic yellow wagon, looks stock. Unfortunately I don't wave cuz I'm in my company car and I don't want weird stares back at me...so if you see a random person waving at you from a car that's not even close to a subie, it might be me...anyone know who these two subie's belong to?

I know what you mean. I've been traveling for over a month now and I always catch myself waving at Subaru owners from my rental. I get some pretty perplexed looks, but a few have waved back.

I'm disappointed that no has spotted me!! I guess since I only live 2 miles from where I work it doesn't provide much opportunity to get spotted!
