Do you wave to a fellow RX-8?
I'm always so excited to see another one that I'm waving, honking, AND flashing lights before I even realize what I'm doing. lol I get something back about 50 percent of the time... the others are probably scared that if they even acknowledge me I'll follow them home or something.
I wave or nod to any rotary around (I own a 3rd gen RX-7) or rev to get their attention when they're not looking.
I always get at least a nod back from RX-7 owners of any year model and the occasional RX-3 or 4 that I see around the streets here in PR but have never been acknowledged by RX-8 owners.... They just look at me with this "I'm better than you" look in their faces. LOL

The wave does seem to be falling off. I still wave. If people want to wave back it;s friendly, if not they're just boring. I almost fell over myself when I saw another lightning yellow last year. I haven't seen one since, and hadn't seen one in about a year before that. The guy driving his did a big double take then started waving like mad. I guess that they weren't popular in my part of the world.
I wave all the gaddamn time - but i only get the 'what's up' every blue moon.
In socal we try and spot each other but now with the drop in prices a lot more non-club members are joining so they don't wave back...

I always wave, even to the guy in town with a VR that has never waved at me in the entire past year I've had my car, one of these days... but I have a tendency to wave at anyone in a car that I like, STIs, Mini's, MS3s, Porches, etc. You'd be surprised how many of them wave back. I always get a wave or thumbs up from RX7 owners and maybe half of the RX8 owners I see. I even get nods from random Miata owners occasionally. It's always a pleasant surprise when someone waves back at me.
Honestly, I've never had another female in an 8 not wave back, so don't be shy about waving at girls, we like our cars too.
