Anyhow, was just being my normal silly self. Thanks for letting it slide.

PS: I'd wave to you on the road, even in your C4!

I know what you mean. I have a least favorite generation as well. I guess this shows we can actually be mature, and have different taste!

I talked to a new C5 owner just the other day. Gave him a little history about his car, I know the previous owner. He wasn't aware of the Corvette Wave. I told him, it's like with bikes, If you see another Vette, wave. Good mojo mang.

I would think that after driving a few months and seeing only Corvette drivers wave at her (and she happens to drive a corvette also), this blond might asks herself why. Then again, she just might think she is so hot, all the men want to wave at her.
