Do you say hi to... ?

[bkndacn]

So I just put Yarisworld license plate covers that I made myself ..... so if you see someone rockin the YW name then gimme a happy double-honk! :-D

[ChilliwackGuy]

I always try to wave - if it's safe. Sometimes I ask a fellow Yaris driver - in a parking lot - how their driving experience has been thus far - and so far - I've noticed that people love sharing feedback!

Two guys in a black Yaris LB were behind me last week, they kept honking and waving. I was trying not to kill the engine and get embarrassed - not used to the clutch yet.

that clutch takes a little while.

I sent you a PM :)

lol I'm from indy... i've only seen one other black lb... did it have a big white sticker in the back window? (mine has a small sticker in the lower right)

[DebbyM46227]

I didn't see any stickers! They were behind me and I couldn't really see the back window all that well.

i was out on the far westside of indy this morning and found myself behind a carmine red 3door(maybe yours?). great looking color - never seen that color in person. mine is a polar white 3door lowered with a 'fartcan' exhaust and polished steelies. i also saw a pacific blue sedan(the same color as my wife's) a little earlier. i'm not the waving-type as most people think you're a little weird unless thery're a fellow enthusiast

I usually just give a nodd - and that's cuz I commute about 200KM a day - so I'm mostly on da freeway doing 80-100KM/H - most Yaris drivers I see are either flooring their gas pedals - or driving at just under the speed limit - and usually Yaris nood back or give me a thumbs up - if I see a Yaris driver parking one somewhere - I often ask they about gas mileage - and if they like their car

btw, welcome to YW all you newbies

[RedHatch08]

I just saw an exact copy of my car!

Here in MI that's VERY rare. It was being driven by a lady, and when we saw each other, we waved. Kind of funny. I don't see Yarii very much around here period, never mind a red 3 door hatch.

[ERA]

everybody else who i see is either old, or doesnt care, or both.

[Emerge]

I don't. I'm not too social with strangers. And, I would rather they are not too social with me either, but I wouldn't ignore someone either.

and yet here you are, chatting on line with perfect strangers

Welcome to all the new people btw.

I used to wave but now there are way too many Yarii around here and people look at me funny if I wave. I'll still give the thumbs up if I can tell the driver is looking at my car. After all, we do have the most stylish car on the road

I know, quite the paradox eh? Online and real world are just different to me. *Shrug*

[RedHatch08]

I don't usually initiate the conversation with strangers either, but I've had some approach me (all guys sadly ) to ask about the car. I like the car and don't mind if people are curious, so I tell them about it.

... Plus I'm Canadian so I have to uphold the stereotype and pretend to be polite.

You forgot the "eh"

just sayin'
as long as you're willing to uphold the stereotype

[RedHatch08]

Forgive me, eh?

I've been in America for too long. Forgetting my roots.
