ive noticed that too when i first got my evo ...i thought it was pretty cool...and usually dudes with sti's i see break their necks...probably because a girl is driving a modded evo lol

 

most evo owners, around philly, wave. some don't. it could be the lack of a wing (in my case).

 

I get no love from the evo owners I see around me. In fact I barely even see any. I think I'm surrounded by a bunch of sti owners.

 

Its nice when someone with the same type of car says hello on the road with a nice peace sign. Owning a older but not a boring audi, I give props all the time but get nothing in return...I think newer audi owners dont get it nor do they care.

 

Here in San Diego, I see a lot of different exotic cars, and i always get waved at, from Ferrari's to WRXs. So far its cool, there's only been a couple of no-wavers. I second the club, my wife doesn't understand why we wave.

 

thats why waving/throwing up the deuce or whatever you do is a "man law"

 

I definetly throw up the dueces when I see another sweet car. I have never seen another evo where I live but I have seen a few sti's.

 

Gotta show some love to your Evo family!!!

 

I like seeing other evo owners out there cool enough to throw up the peace sign. my g/f thinks im a big nerd for doing it but i just think she's jealous her car doesn't get as much love as mine ; )

 

You just haven't felt the love yet...


Also, to date, the following numbers are evo's that were produced for US market:

as opposed to


roughly 40,000 (actual statistic) altima's to be produced this year in the Smyrna, TN plant for the following states CA, CT, ME, MA, NJ, NY, RI, and VT. Keep in mind that there are also many, many more being produced to "meet demand" in Canton, MS.

the previous info can be found on the Nissan website, and Wikipedia.

 

ever since i posted this thread, ive been getting even more and more people throwing up the deuces. maybe people are starting to recognize. even the old fobbed out d1 driver looking asian guys are saying wuts up.. crazy huh?

 

The 4G63 is going to bring world peace.

 

Yeah usually when you drive around in a car with some sort of enthusiast following, owners will acknowledge each other.

 

there is 1 other owner by me but whenever i go by him he like ignores me...

But there is an sti owner that we give the evil stare to eachother whenever we meet, always crossing patho tho, never able to drag... : (

 

Its definatly a cult thing haha. I always get a duece from another EVO owner in my area. Get them from the STIs too. I think just about every white Evo was sold in central Jesey. I know atleast 6 other Evos that I see in my area that are white.
