Back in 1968 I got my first car, a 1963 MG Midget. Back then sports cars were uncommon enough that we would always wave at one another. Triumphs, MGs, Healeys, Jags, Alfas...you see another one and it was always good for a wave or a prolonged chat at a gas station or wherever. Even Porsche owners would wave at us "lesser folk" in our British or Italian sports cars.
I don't know when that stopped happening. I wave at other Saabs, especially 9000s when in mine, but rarely get a return wave. Now it's only the enthusiasts for a given marque who wave, and although there are a lot of us on TSN, we're still pretty thin on the ground.
