The Wave?
I always give a wave to a passing Vette driver!! I sometimes give the pointer finger #1 sign or usually a full hand wave. Just like should Harley Davidson riders!! I'm just curious what how others feel about this and what do you do when you pass another Vette? Thanks surf!!!

I waive at every vette but I almost always get avoided by older vette drivers and some c5ers for some strange reason even when I pull up right next to them and try to be friendly. I know for sure they see me. I'm 34 by the way. I still will wave regardless if I get a waive back. I'm doing my duty.

Was out cruising yesterday for 4 hours and saw 9 other vettes! Had a 100% wave rate and many waved first. It was a very good day for the.. "WAVE"!!

I do the wave, but feel alittle stupid when it is not returned.
I get a wave back about 50% of the time.
C3 owners seem to be the worst

When I first got the C6, I told my fiance about the tradition of the waive. I told her it was a sign of fellowship with other vette owners. She understood as the same waive tradition is alive with motorcycles and I also ride.
Well... we waived (both of us) to the first ten or so vettes that we passed didn't get a single waive back. Kami decided that was that and no longer waives. I still do.... I don't care if anyone else does.

My husband makes fun of me because I'm SOOOO into my vette and the vette community. He said - so, do you have a secret handshake, etc? He knows about the wave but wondered if it was in the shape of a "V". LOL! I told him that I couldn't tell because if I did I'd have to kill him..............

I always wave if I see the other 'Vette, which I occasionally don't in time. If they wave back, great. If not, it's not going to change my waving.Then every once in awhile, it's really good. Pulled up next to a pretty lady in a C6 Z06, and I looked over and waved. Got a BIG smile and a wave back. Made my afternoon!
