I got my first wave yesterday myself. From a C5 too. My buddy was with me and he said "there's a Corvette wave too?". i rarely got waves from other 3000gt owners .

BTW, here is one from VA

I got my first wave from a C3. I believe it was a '77. Pretty nice looking for a New Jersey car.

Wave from Jersey!

Maybe new Corvette owners don't know about the wave?

Personally I could care less if somebody waves to me.

I waved at a C5 driver a few weeks ago. We were passing each other at about 10 mph. He looked bewildered.

Here's one from the other side of town.

I've had waves from people that aren't even driving Corvettes. Maybe it's an Iowa thing.

Around here, I've not gotten a wave from any of the C6's I've waved at. No problem. Just keep the wave going. Here's another from Texas.
