Default C7 owners who don't Wave!

Hi
It appears that most C7 owner's are either new to vettes or too old to see a wave LMAO

Face the facts..... us C6 owners are obsolete.

Besides, if they don't wave back, just give them the single finger salute.

The C4 owners said that of the C5 owners!
The C5 owners said that of the C6 owners!
Now C6 owners say that of the C7 owners!
I will predict the future here.
C7 owners will say the same about C8 owners!

I've seen plenty of C7s drivers wave around my town. Mostly from one side of the road to the other. I think it's their first manual trans.

Just joking. Some wave, some don't. If they don't, I just crash into the side of their cars. No big deal.

Some Vette owners feel it's just a car, they are not into the "lifestyle". I find most other Vette owners that don't waive are women. I do waive but I don't worry about the waive back, not going to let such a little thing bother me. Don't sweat the small stuff!!

Former C6 owner. Got a new C7 middle of October. Only drove it for 2 weeks. I'll bet I passed 25 or 30 C6's. I waved at every one and got about 5 back. Just sayin'.

It's always that way when a new generation comes out. I remember C5 owners complaining about C6 owners.

I'll wave back at you when I get my C7 seriously, I try to wave at every Corvette I meet, and get 70% of waves back..

They are probably wondering why the guy in the Camaro is waving at them

Sorry, I'm just kidding with you. I'm one that loves the new look but a guys gotta have some fun.

We can put the lid back on the can of worms now.
