We’ve all done it: Spied a neat car out on the road and waited for a closer look.
Our latest quarry: a Civic Type R dumped on Gram Lights. And is that an aftermarket intercooler peeking out? It sounded good, too.

Oh yeah.. I've done that many times. Granted, I'm rarely the fastest car on the road, so most cool cars pass me.

Thank you, thank you. Glad someone notices the details.
I'll almost always coast to let a cool car catch up and give a thumbs up or peace sign. It's disheartening when the appreciation gets ignored but not everyone wants to interact with randos.
All the time.
Bonus points for opening the window so you can also hear it.
Yeah, and sometimes you have to play catch up.
Wasn't hard in this case.
The weirdest I had was when I was driving through Virginia in my Miata and had some guy come hauling ass through traffic in a Lamborghini Gallardo, then slow up once he got alongside me and throw a few revs at me and then take off. Seemed backwards.
In reply to NickD :
Sometimes you're desperate for a race, ya know?
I drive like an old man, so I'm usually the slowest thing on the road. The other day we're driving pas Grand Junction and my girlfriend tells me she sees a cool old truck in the rearview. She slowed down but sadly the beautiful Advance Design took the next exit and we didn't get to let it pass us.
