When I had my miata it seemed everyone waved at me. The middle-aged ladies in their miatas, mazda 3's, rx-7's and -8's, and even other makes. And on the highway many people actually moved over into the right lane for me. I was always shocked at the reactions I got when driving that car. It did look alot more aggressive than the 2 though which I'm sure had alot to do with it. By far more attention than I got in any other car.
