I just look at them, if they wave I wave too. If they flash their lights, I do too.

I get pursued by some guy in a black celi sleeper with a beams hiding under the hood and then I feel like I should be doing more mods to my car. You know who you are!!! tongue.gif

But for the most part, I just look at their car, usually notice that most are pre-facelift in my area with few visible mods (except for 1 or 2), then wonder if they are on 6gc.

i nod or wave, but after I pass them, I realize that I just passed some hairdresser in a 7th gen and she doesnt care about her celica at all.

and when im riding with my wife, she normally asks why i just waved to some random girl. I tell her that its because i was waving at the celica and then she disregards me as just being a big dork.

I usually don't wave or anything.. Just look to see who's driving... (hoping its a young hot single chick.. LOL)... but typically around here they've been older ladies... I doubt they are on 6gc.

I did see one guy pull up in a 96+ red celica at Sonic.. I had to walk up and say "hi".. asked if he was into cars and was planning to mod it... I think he wanted to lower it but I could tell he wasn't super into working on cars... I told him about 6gc.. not sure if he came here or not..

I look at their ride, then look at the driver. If there is more time i flash and stare at them, if we going in the same direction i try and catch up side by side and stare and wave like an idiot.

7th Gen Males = Stare at me
7th Gen Females = Stare at me
6th Gen Males = Leer at me
6th Gen Females = Could give two $#!ts I exist in the world
5th Gen Males = Wish their car looked like mine
5th Gen Females = Yet to be seen


Most people just stare at my car, Honda kids rev and drive as if they think my car was fast and try not to allow themselves to get next to me with clearance ahead, and um........ Often people try to talk crap and say "A corvette can beat that", which makes me feel better about my car to be put up in the ranks in or around a corvette knowing it is still in stock mode for the most part. LOL


Honestly, I look at them to see their reaction. Mostly chicks do stare to get a good look at me, and guys heads will turn as they stare my car down. I wish I made more Celica Buddys.

I see them everywhere out here and feel bad for the celica cuz most of the celis out here are so mistreated. Scratches, dings, rust, dints that look like it got hit by the titanic.

I just think to myself wut a damn shame to waste such a beautiful car.

But when I do see the hot 6gens, I stare until I can't see them anymore. lol

One time I was driving on the freeway and I saw a black coupe and said to myself "hey, lets see who's driving" so I accelerate a little and there's a cat in the rear driverside window and an old guy driving. I really wanted him to visit 6gc.net lol.

Sometimes I see a young girl driving but 95% of the time its an older gentleman or woman..and their car is either stock and clean as if it just came from the dealer, or stock and mistreated frown.gif

There was a white coupe with JDM lowbeams out at the Tyler Galleria in Riverside..I stopped and dropped a piece of cardboard that said come to 6gc.net for information about the Celica smile.gif

I really don't see many 6GC's around here...I saw an old lady driving a red pre-facelift ST hatchback about a month ago, and I've seen a couple around. Hatchbacks are definitely more common though, I saw my first vert only a couple weeks ago.

i would flash lights at em but i heard that may cause some gang trouble... rolleyes.gif so i look hard to see if its a gangster or not (rarely ever do gangsters drive celicas) then if its not i wave or smile..... but 98% of the time its a lil old lady that can barely see over the steering wheel. so she acts like im a creepy lil kid that waves at old ppl biggrin.gif ...... except when i used to see supradog1 around n i would say wats up and then secretly envy his front end and paint job, but i dont see him anymore

i dont see to many 6gc around here, when i do they are parked at the mall so i park my car beside en usualy, 7th gen owners around here are dumb, and there is alot alot are hot females in which i wave at or get up beside and they check my car out, but most other drivers dont even recognize my car as a celica until i get in front and they see it on my hatch along with GTS, 5th gen owners around here are cool, very few but we give each other nods when we pass by because we both know each other have nice rides

i live in the up north of california and a small town and i been driving around looking for 6gc hahaha. and i counted there are about 7 other 6gc and 2 5gc and about 10 7gc. when ever i pass one of the other 6gc i always stare at them and if they stare back at me ill just wave or flash my high beam to them.

i dont know why but everytime i drive around town ppl on the side walk or in their car always stare at me even if they dont have a celica.

oh yea and this one dude with a 7gc wanted to trade his celica for mine and i was like sure if you throw in about 2g with the car lol.

I generally look to see if the driver notices that I, too, am driving a 6GC and regardless of the outcome stare like a stalker on Ritalin followed by a hearty wave.

There are two in my neighborhood that are also both verts, one red and one green like mine. They are both owned by slightly older ladies (I say "slightly" because by most standards, I am an older guy) and they will occasionally acknowledge the weirdo staring at them at the stop lights with a nervous wave. I also know of a white '95 coupe that belongs to a woman who works at my neighborhood Target in the Starbucks. As we are regular customers, she knows me and my son and always gives a wave and a smile.

I also have met a gentleman who has a white vert when he bought a rim from me a while back. We see each other now and again in traffic and we smile and wave at each other.

Generally, though, I find like most on here that there isn't much of a response from others. Shame.

There's hardly ANY 6g's in my city I've seen a silver hatch exactly like mine cruising from time to time but that's generally it.
There's a gt-four 5g that lives down the street from me with some nice bronze wheels and a few mods so I'm always tempted to go ask about his car >.>
If I do happen to pass a 6c I usually stare like a total creeper though and smile to myself usually wondering if they have any mods etc etc.
