TSX sighting
Do you wave hand to each other when u sight a TSX? Or even slow down and look at each other and nodded head. I notice some people don't bother to look even waiting for light stop side by side. I am just curious, hope I don't sounds like stupid when I do that next time I saw a TSX drive by.

I usually wave, or give a thumps up 
Or I'll slow down and look (admire) the car. Not too many peeps response. 
Some people are not into their cars like we are.........

I am a glancer at other TSXs 
and if the driver is a cute chick, I'll stare 
if it's a guy looking like a car nut like myself, then I might nod. If it's a riced TSX, I'll

I'm with 05_TSX....If she is cute....she get's my attention, If the TSeX has been modified...I slow down and check it out before I fly by it...If I were to nod my head they might think I was a lil too cocky since I have flashy rims. I still don't see too many TSX's. I see a butt load of TL's though.

When I first got my TSX in '03 and in '04 I would acknoledge and nod. But in SoCal, so many people are "trying to be hard"... Not everyone though, there's still cool people out here. I've even had a guy in an R32 Skyline I raced in my 'Teg give props.
I'll still nod if someone else does... That doesn't happen too often though.
It's nothing like when I'm riding my CBR600RR though. No matter if it's a Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, even some cruiser guys etc...
Motorcyclists will give the "point" or wave when we pass each other. I've even been at a red light and another 'rider asks "work or cruising?" and what not...

Well, I guess I was raised this way. When I was a kid, I was told don't stare at strangers, especially those who look like gangsta... You know...some people don't like being stared at. So that's why I don't make eye contact with strangers. And since I don't look, how would I know if you're waving or nodding at me?

Anyway, I am just having the funniest image in my mind of you trying to keep eyes straight forward, keeping to your tunnel vision

I check out other TSXs, but they're usually these middle aged women or men. I did catch an entire family in a Blue TSX absolutely drooling over mine when I drove behind them and then finally slowly pass them. I swear the kids face in the back seat was right up against the window, LOL. I acted like I didn't see them, but it was pretty obvious from the peripheral vision that the entire family was checking out my car before and after I passed them.

I always make a point of at least looking at the other TSX drivers, and if possible I will wave, I think it's friendly and all, but I'm mostly disappointed when most of the TSX drivers won't even look my way.

On another note, I'll give thumbs up to NSX's and they'll usually smile back...

Rollin through downtown Seattle on the way home today and came up on a SSM TSX with a Freegin hot A$$ lady in it. Looked to be in her mid-late 20's and just beautiful. So I slowed up and when I got next to her I gave her a big smile, but she was too interestd in the TSX so I got no response from her.....I will look for her tomorrow. This time I will crash my car in to hers so she has to stop and talk to me or commit a felony and leave the scenen of an accident............oh yeah.....got it all figured out

Around my area whats nice is everyone who has a tsx is older way older, my neighbor is like his early 20s. So i don't get to see young tsx drivers, or really any tsx drivers.

Hey CJams, I'll be on a biz trip in Seattle area (Renton to be more exact) next week. Any chance/interest to hook up so I can check out your ride?
I won't have my TSX though, only rental SUV for biz trip (I'll PM you or you can PM me first)

I was droolin over vwongs wheels till I saw the price tag, then I lost my appetite. I got rims, tires, 2 sets of locking lug nuts, lug nuts, and balancing for about $400 less then just his metal alone. I ain't a baller!
05_TSX_GP--my avitar was a joke for the girl that made me the Chicken adobo. I took a pic when I was eating left overs and e-mailed it to her so she could get a good laugh. I decided to use it as my avitat when I was craving it again. But to answer your question, no I didn't give her that cheesy smile, the chacita got the, "how you doin?" smile. But she didn't see me anyway, she was too interested in the car. Typical woman......jk

I dunno though about an exotic bike over an exotic car. If it was a choice between a Ferrari F430 or a Ducati 999, I'd have to pick the F430. However, Ducati is the Ferrari of bikes!
Trust me, I'm not into tricks! I've seen too many people dump for me to want to try that ish... Even the salesman who sold me the bike has a peg leg. They call him "Thai-boy" because of the titanium in his knee and calf.
I'm all about enjoying the ride brotha'!
Good luck with the wifey!

I look at people, but they're almost always middle age women so what's the point. there's also no modified tsxs out this way, so I'd never run into anyone from azine that would notice

I still think I must be the only male in New Orleans to drive a TSX. I only see women driving them. As far as waving, I think most people are not checking out the cars around them. I am constantly looking at the cars around me. So no waves yet. However, I constantly wave back and forth to everybody on boats. I have never come across another boater, besides commercial fisherman, that does not want to wave.
