Okay, I haven't had any luck yet, but maybe someone will answer me soon!

Yesterday--November 2nd--White's Ferry at about 1245-1 pm, in line for the ferry, a DS/W with white bonnet stripes. We rode on the same ferry.

Yesterday, heading towards Tyson's Corner on route 7 in virginia at about 3 pm--Indi Blue/White MCS with white viper stripes and University of Kansas sticker on the back.

We were in DH's black S2000, so I didn't wave at anyone.

I haven't seen you yet! It seems that the people I see don't like to wave.

I had to pull up right next to someone in bumper to bumper traffic on 270 North yesterday, and stare for a little bit (I felt like psycho for staring, but I was gonna get a wave out of him!) before he looked over so I could wave (he waved back) He was in a BRG/W Cooper.

I mean with these cars you would think people would be a little more inclined to wave, how can you not?

I have also noticed that men are more likely to wave than women.

I hate to admit it, but my husband drives an S2000 and those drivers are better at waving at each other than the MINI crowd.

But I will definitely keep an eye out. Silk green is always an eye catcher.
