Now I will be certain to give them a big wave every time I see them. Maybe that will bug the crap out of these snobs...

""The CORVETTE wave"" is the coolest! After the first few times my wife drove my 04 she came to me asking what "the wave" was all about. When I explained she loved it and although she gets a little embarassed she is now a waver too, (((when she's able to sneak the keys away from me))). Look around... Do you see Camero, Mustang, Porsche, Viper owners smiling and waving at each other?!?!? We from the vert brother/sisterhood are a unique breed!

He probably is indeed one of those "jack-*** corvette owners"!! Oh wait!! Lol...

I wave to all corvettes too but often times people don't get it when your cruising in the Impala.. (work car)

Oh well, I try...

Umm. yes. For pretty much every car that isn't a family sedan, you'll find groups of owners who wave at each other. Actually, you'll find that many car enthusiasts wave at almost any nice set of wheels. Try searching on Google, you'll be surprised at what you turn up.
