Default Do you wave?
Whenever I see another Vett driving down the street....I usually wave to the driver.... most of the time....they wave back. I want to know if other Vett drivers wave as well....or am I being annoying??

You might be annoying but I'll still wave back at you anyway.

I do my part to save the wave. I wave at all Vettes and get less then a 50 percent return wave. But I will continue to do my part to save this part of the Corvette heritage.

I always wave or give a quick tap of the horn if my windows (5% tint) are up.

sometimes I'm busy driving and miss another Corvette going in the other direction. I'm good to wave for about 50-75% of the time. I almost always get a wave back, but not always.

I think some are like me, and just don't see it or my car.

I wave and most other Corvette owner's wave back. Sometimes you get one that just glares back at you but I figure if they're just too important or too sophisticated to return the wave...that's their problem.

No your not annoying, and is a nice thing, is when some guys start to get all frustrated because the wave was not returned, Most Vettes wave some don't, I could care less, My opinion

I live in NY and bought my vette in NJ. When driving home the day I picked her up, and knew nothing about the wave, a guy in a C3 gave me a wave and a honk. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy. Now I wave at everyone. Thank you. C3 guy!!!!!

There are a few C3's, C4's, C5's and one C6 around where I live. NONE of them will wave back at me. Jealous I guess. I usually still wave though.
