Mirages/Space Stars spotted in the wild (pics! Not your own car)

[Fummins]

My buddy told me that people (OK, guys) who drive old diesel Jettas & Golfs acknowledge each other.

I told him I've waved at tons of Mirages and only got one wave back! Can't say for sure whether the other Mirage owners thought I was a creep though!

I waved at a few Mirages and got no reaction. When I saw other Delica's while driving mine there was lots of waving going on. I had a lady in a similar Delica catch up to me on the highway one time just to match my speed and wave. Then she took off and after the fact I figured she was trying to race but it was hard to tell cause they're so slow.

A Mirage first for me:

First time ever I noticed another Mirage behind me on the (rural) highway while I was driving mine. He was in more of a hurry... Wasn't behind me for long.

Spotted this one the other day
And this one a month or so ago
I just came across this pic from 2020

Does anyone else notice that most other Mirage owners on the road don't seem to look for or notice you? When I drove a New Beetle, we always looked for each other and waved and the Jeep folks do... I thought for sure by now Mirage owners would, but I get nothing any time I see another

I have noticed a lack of interest from other Mirage owners, too. Although I don't cross paths with a lot of them where I live.

The motorcycle crowd is the best. Although a Harley guy may feel a little regret when he notices he waved to Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha, or Suzuki after the fact. Most just wave to anyone on a cycle, however.

I didn't own an Isuzu Trooper for very long, but that crowd waved 30+ years ago.

Yeah, I felt like a retard the few times I waved at someone in a Mirage cause they were probably wondering wtf is wrong with me.
The few times I saw another Delica on the road I felt the other driver was as about excited as I was as we both waved like children.
My dad bought a Jeep a few years ago and was surprised at the amount of random jeep people that wave.
