Default The wave DESPERATELY needs saving!!

(On a sidenote: I saw, in Freeport New York on Sunrise Highway, a Pace Car C5. I wanted to wave, but it was parked!)

....while I speak of waving...yes, there has been a SERIOUS lack of waving! This has me disappointed .

I can't for the life of me imagine how anyone would want to pass up the wave? I look intentionally for Corvette, I wave and they don't even look!!

This should be a APB!

Here ya go!





I think we should start a thread about your hair color and whether or not it blends with your interior. Or, what happens when there is hair in your car and it doesn't match your girlfriend's....

Ahhh

Forget it.

No, it’s not THAT bad. Just that the same thread comes up very often over the years. In all, most Vette drivers seem to give a wave. The rest I figure did not see me or just don’t like me.
