That would work also, but if you live in the NW where it's been raining for the past week and has already exceeded the average November rainfall in just 7 days, I think it'd be a pain to open your windows and let all that rain in the car (we all know how easy that is).

On a motorcycle you just have to wave, simple. Same thing in a miata I would imagine with the open top.

When I see someone with the same ar as me(currently A4) I just nod my head if I see him looking at me.

So all in favor of hazards? I am... it's simple, clearly recognizable (no matter weather or tint), and it's a bit different.

Just wave like every other niche vehicle community does. I come here from the Corvette family - they are the biggest bunch of wave ***** ever.

vetteguy: "I was driving down the highway, and I waved at a passing vette, and he didn't wave back. WTF is wrong with him?"

vettedude: "Wow, what a *****. If it was me, I would have waved back. SAVETHEWAVE!!!"

That post is seen, literally, on a daily basis in all generations of Vettes on Corvetteforum.com.

And really, who the hell is going to remember or be able to turn on their flashers by the time we pass each other? Is it really worth having to fumble around for an obscure button during rush hour traffic to acknowledge the existence of another person who just happens to drive the same car as you? Odds are they don't really care as much about their car as we do about ours. I'm sorry to break this to you, but owning an Infiniti is not in the same ballpark as owning a Vette. To most, a Vette is a lifestyle choice. You buy a Vette because you want a Vette. A G is a more intellectual choice. Do you want a G, a TL, an Audi, a BMW, etc? There is less emotion involved for MOST people when purchasing a G than there is for purchasing a "true" sports car, like a Vette or Viper.

Besides, the majority of G Coupe owners I see are retirees, and mostly women, at that. Although, there are a couple of really smokin' chicks in coupes around here, too.

what i always do after a friendly run or nice cruise on the highway with another enthusiast of any car i just tap my brake pedal twice in 2 sets (1,2 1,2) very noticable and doesnt wear my brakes or anything just triggers the sensor of the foot being on the pedal. I 99% of the time get a highbeam flash or wave . On the local streets ill just wave or nod since its slower speeds and no need to rush to get get the window down to wave or ricer hazards

also, depending on where you live. some gangs take the flashing of high beams as a challenge...seriously...

they bust a cap on you....im afraid of that...
at least on LA downtown....but if you are driving close to santa clarita, or porter ranch..its all good
