Who says C-6ers don't wave?? Drove into Town today and before I had a chance to wave, the C-6 Driver waved at me.. Later passed a C-5, waved at him and nada..

I never said C6-ers don't wave...infact they are some of the best wavers IMO. C4-ers are the ones that never seem to be able to muster up the strength to wave for whatever reason.

You only get the wave if your car is cool. Therefore, we should all wave at every Vette.

I'm a C4 type and I wave at all vette's that I see. Mostly because
I'm afraid someone will bite my ear off if I don't.

vette owner to psychiatrist "hmmm I'm very sensitive that no one waves at me when I drive my vette" psychiatrist to vette owner "stop being so damn sensitive and drive the damn thing for your own enjoyment and don't worry about who waves at you"
