Default Corvette Wave

I had a C4 for many years and found that C5 owners (not all but many) would not wave. Now I have my C6 and they don't mind waving. I wave to all Vettes no matter the year. How about you?

Future Corvette owners are now trained "the wave" at a very young age.

Always. Sometimes when I'm not in the vette . . . that gets some strange looks.

While driving my vette today, I waved at a woman driving a silver C4 and she did not wave back. I turned around and followed her to her house. I now have a restraining order against me for assault. I wish to God she would have just waved. Why don't people wave! Is it that hard! Geez........actually the first sentence is true but the rest is b.s.

Hit or miss getting a return wave in my area, and it doesn't seem to matter what generation the Corvette is.
