Thats what C4 owners were saying when the C5's were still being made.

Not all Corvette owners know about waving to other Corvettes. I wave to all of them that I see. There is a C1 here in town that I wave to everytime I see him and he never waves back. But to answer your question, yes wave at all of them.

Despite the bashing it gets on the forum, the Wave is a long tradition

To answer your question, you should wave at all fellow Corvette owners

Here's a bit of history:

The wave is awesome! It makes you feel part of one big happy family! I don't think any other car groups have a "wave" do they?

All Vettes and I will also wave at Vipers as they are another American sports car, just not THE AMERICAN SPORTS CAR.

So here's to ALL the car nuts and gear heads out there.

Heck I wave back to anyone who waves to me, and I always wave at another Vette if I see them

ive noticed while riding with a friend in his jeep wrangler that they have a wave thing too. i dont know if it is just around here, or the the classic style jeeps, but they always wave to him. its a lot better then the late model mustang croud. ive had two and everytime (which is about twice every 5 minutes) id see one, they would just glare and it looked like they were trying to decide whose was better. its stupid

i saw 2 c4s and 1 c3 today, and one of the c4s waved. i waved to all. oh well.. cant win them all

If one doesn't wave at another waver who favors the wave, then the non-waver should be made to make a wave wav or be put on waivers from this board.

I always wave unless I don't see you in time for you to see me! There is such a thing as "Missed" wave. For the dedicated non wavers, I'm making a list and checking it twice.............

When I first came on I took it as a "surf" thing! Go figure. Northern Cali wants to "save" everything! Why not a wave? OK, I'll wave to all and see what results I get. It'll part of the new owner experience huh?
