Here in St. Pete. FL, very few Vette drivers wave back. I have just about stopped waving, in the last 5 years I've had maybe 4 or 5 other Vette enthusiasts return my wave. None of them were female.
:rolleyes:
Same here in South Florida.........:iagree:.......I have not stopped yet, but it get's old waving to yourself..... :D

The wave aside, I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but I don't care.....frankly I think the vettes should stay with men, its a fine brotherhood that way :D :yesnod: I can see the wall of flames coming my way right now :lol: :lol: :lol:
:confused: I have two vettes and know more about corvettes than almost anyone else I know. Who's to say that passion should be confined to one gender? If you don't like a sexy lady who drives a beautiful, sleek car that she's passionate about, then I'm sure there are many others out there who will take up where you've refused :cheers: :auto:

I have gotten waves from about 90% of the female drivers that I have seen. The last one I got was from a nice looking LADY (notice the capital letters) in a C1, it looked like a '54 or '55. I thought that she was going to fall out of the car, she was waving sooo much.... I pulled over but she kept going. I think that it is great that women drive Corvettes. I actually wish that my wife would drive OUR Vette. I think that she is afraid of it.... :seeya :seeya :seeya :seeya :seeya , I don't care who is driving it, I wave to them all!!!! :cheers:

:seeya

Apology certainly accepted. As we all know, the main problem with the internet is the lack of inflection in one's words. I mean, if you can't HEAR how someone says something, you lose SO much of what they've said.
You can't hear the lilt, the giggle, the sarcasm or the fear, for example.
Anyway, I didn't get your humor and I'm sorry, too. I didn't mean to jump at your throat when you didn't deserve it.

There was a lady in a C5 that almost ran off the road she was waving so hard!! :lol: I was waving back almost as frantically as she was because I was all excited that she was so excited!!
The guy behind me in a pickup truck must have thought that both of us were a bunch of looneys!

One other thing..I was having a bad day one day, left work, driving home with a :( on my face no doubt..and I met a black guy in a C3 coming in the other direction on this side street. He hung his head and his arm out the window and had a huge :D on his face with a :thumbs:!!

The rest of my day wasn't so bad after all. :)

I've recieved waves from mostly older women in Vettes (C3s mostly), and a few in C5s...

When my ex-gf used to drive the Vette, I had one rule... You drive, you wave... She got into it, personally I think she liked the attention...

Here in Montreal I would say only 5% of the Vette driver's are woman and not one has ever waved. I think I saw maybe 5 woman drivng vette in Montreal.

Here's something to throw in. I pulled up next to a chick in a white c4 i waved and she didn't. I had a african american chick in a c5 actually speed up to me to wave. Come to think of it so did another one. So i'm at 2-1.

I'm thinking many of the retirees in Florida probably don't see the wave! :jester
