1 for 2 on waves today.

Sunset Orange C6 - Didn't wave. But I don't think he saw me (never made eye contact, and he didn't even turn his head).

Black Rose Metallic C4 - Waved

Not trying to imply anything about C6 owners

I was out with a buddy in his modded 00 vert. We missed a C6. I bet the driver of the C6 has already posted a thread about C5's being butt heads.

Saw a black C6 coupe last night. I made a fool out of myself by waving, the g/f was like "what the heck are you doing?"

I guess Vette owners don't notice me in the Mustang as much

Big day for waves in Charlotte, NC. It was topless weather. Saw a couple C5 coupes, a nice blue C3 near Monroe, NC, and a yellow C6. I talked with the owner of the C6 for awhile, we were in a parking lot. All Vettes on the road initiated or returned a wave.

The weather was great today. I live close to Monroe but unfortunately I was in the truck today... no vette.
