Well you guys are lucky to even SEE another Corvette on the roads when you go for a drive. It's darn rare around here! Went out today and didn't see but ONE other one the entire time. Normally one sighting is par for the course around here, but it is not at all unusual to see NONE at all.

I always wave, sometimes when I am not even in the Vette. I think it is a very cool fun thing to do and it doesn't even cost anything. You can't beat that these days.

SAVE THE WAVE!!

Man, I felt bad today. I got a wave from the driver of a yellow C3. I was in tight traffic and couldn't return the wave. He probably thought, there goes another one of those newer vette owners that doesn't know about the wave. So, then I see a red C6 vert coming my way. I give a wave and he looks at me like, "do I know you"?? Now I don't feel so bad. Those folks in the newer vettes don't know how to wave.............

To be honest I gave up. When I'm in my C2 I never get a wave back, especially from someone in a C5. To be honest I get more responses to my 66 from everyone but Corvette owners. When I'm in my C5 same thing. If someone waves first I return the courtesy.

I get more waves from C5 owners guess it's cause i see more C5's than other year Vettes. I see alot of black C5's in my area!

Beside 3 neighbors that have vettes, I must see at least a half dozen per day down here in S. Florida. There are many new vette owners that have no clue why you are waving at them, and if you are a guy, they might think of you as a little strange if you get my drift.
It always seemed normal to me because I have been riding bikes for years and most fellow bikers will wave when you pass by. That said, the more you wave the more likely it will catch on with other new vette owners. When they don't wave back don't attach emotional assumptions as to why they didn't because there could have been other reasons.
