GrandSport 'vert didn't wave!!!
I was driving home from my realtor's office yesterday evening with the wife. Coming the other way, I spot a skunk. Immediately my hand goes out the window... Nada.

I have found that C4 drivers tend to be the worst wavers, atleast in San Diego. I have driven by probably 25+ C4s in the 3 weeks I have owned the car, and I have only gotten one, ONE, wave out of all those. With C5s I get a wave usually 90% of the time, and C6s 100% of the time! So don't feel bad. I don't get waves from any C4 owners, not just GS drivers.

C3s always wave. I feel like a dork, though, 'cause I always see them a little late and my wave comes across completely halfass. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm just oblivious!

I cant believe it, but every day this week, ive seen at least one C5 on the road each day, and ever single one of them waved at me. I was astonished! Maybe im just used to Texas, but this is Corvette home turf here in Kentucky...maybe that makes the difference.

I'm sorry i didn't wave, but i was too busy talking on my cell phone, drinking coffee, eating a Big Mac, reading a road map, putting on my makeup, lighting a cigarette, slapping the kids, pickin' my nose and all the other stuff that is so important to do besides paying attention to driving the car.

Dammit, nevermind 
I've had that happen a few times. I'll catch them out of the corner of my eye and barely get my hand up to acknowledge them. But for me, it's kinda hard for me to drive a 6 speed vette while talking on the phone, shaving, balancing a drink between my legs with just enough force to hold it, but not enough to squish it, search for a radio station, and try to eat a jelly donut. I mean I only have 2 hands
