This will be pretty vague but I’m sure the person would know if it was them. I believe this was Monday, the light at Harrishill and Sheridan iirc. Silver 04 impreza hatch gave a wave, I gave the nod and waved back.

Damnit, you got me!!! Side note, every time I hear “missed connection” I think of 103.3 and potter saying it. “another missed connection”

Spotted a black sc300 on Main St by the Hallow last night at a restaurant by the fire hall. Had I believe 18’s or 19’s with a chrome lip on the wheels. Exhaust as well.

I think of the Nick Thune song missed connections…it’s funny.

Not me. My sc300 hasn’t been out since it got painted.
