Default The Wave

This was the first time I was able to drive the car since buying it 2 weeks ago (Title snafu) first day out driving on cottrel road along comes a new yellow C5 in the other direction while he was on the cell managing the curves and still gave me the wave! Who says the C5"s don't wave, then the next morning driving to get the car inspected saw a Red C4 driving on the other side of Rt 36 and just gave the look over, guess it was a little early, nice ride though :)

There have been several posts over time, complaining about C5 owners. I've had at least as many waves from them (and making the extra effort to do so) as any other era. I wave to everybody in a corvette, its a great life! :seeya

It seems like there's a post weekly on the C5 Waving subject :rolleyes: :yawn:

I'm wondering if the C5 wavers used to be previous Corvette owners and the C5 non-wavers are first time owners?

I have noticed that it depends some on where you are. In my town, not too many Vette-sters wave back at me. But, when I go to other towns.....sometimes everyone waves.

Hmmm, the other day I got a thumb-up from a 91 red coupe driver, weird, since there's no wave-thing in here (Mexico), I replied with the horn and waved at him.

This is the closest I've been :sad: :cheers:
