Default wave

At my age, by the time I see the wave, recognize it as a wave, and make the decision to wave back, the other car is long gone! Sorry!

There's a "well used" C4 here locally that I was riding beside last week. I have seen him several times and now that there's less risk of ice, seems to be out regularly. I have to think the car is a daily driver and with what looks to be a straight body (desperately needing paint) that may be in the process of restoration. One can hope...

Was riding with the top down and waved- he didn't acknowledge but no harm or foul. This area is a little funny but I'll wave regardless. Bad habit I seem to have picked up, especially from riding motorcycles...

Personally, I've not seen it in years. When I've waved, even in town, there is typically no indication they've seen whichever car I'm in at the time, the C5 or C7. Times change, I suppose.

I always wave, that is when I notice the other vette. This leads me to think that most always wave back, unless they don't notice me.

The other day I pulled into a 2 lane left turn lane and right next to me pulled up a C6. She rolled down her window and I mine and we chatted a little about our cars. Love it when that happens.

I always wave. I’ll get a wave back most of the time...if the other driver is looking.

I don’t wave/acknowledge in any form or fashion. I could not care less that we both bought a Chevy.

Always wave. Usually get a wave back unless they didn't see me.

YES! Save the wave. I have a Jeep and I get more waves from Jeep owners when I drive the Jeep than from Corvette owners when I drive the Corvette. Very disappointing.

I picked up the wave when I started riding motorcycles. Carried it into the Corvette. Always, if I see you....

Always wave, but in my small city people wave no matter what you drive.
