What's The Proper Corvette Wave?
When I'm driving and see another Corvette headed towards me in the on-coming lane, I usually put my left arm out the window and give a "Thumbs Up" sign to the other driver. Is there a better, cooler, proper way to acknowledge another Corvette driver on the road? Just wondering. I wasn't sure if there was a super top secret hand gesture only Corvette owners share, and I didn't get the memo

GREAT! Then I wasted a lot of time practicing my "Parade Wave."

Thumbs up seems to be the Texas way. I am an equal opportunity giver and receiver.

This is the proper wave

Not necessarily, I wave at every Corvette I "SEE". The other day traffic was unusual and I was having to pay extra attention to crazy folks ahead of me and at the last minute I noticed a fellow Vette owner passing me and waving. It was too late to return the way and I just hoped they didn't think I wasn't the kind that didn't wave.

I wave. I get waves. But.....when my grand kids see another Corvette.........well, they wave like you can't believe. I mean they wave and love doing it. The fellow drivers that they are waving to get a big kick out of it for sure. And, of course, they wave back.

Not to hijack, but the kids (not so young anymore) all love the Corvette. Fighting all the time as to which one will get it when I head on to my reward!

That is too funny. The exact same thing just happened to me. Seriously. We waved to a bright yellow Mustang and he waved back to our bright yellow Corvette. Gotta love it.

Ya gotta have a sense of humor if you're driving a bright yellow car! One time I had to pick up my wife in front of the courthouse. Lots of people around. I stepped out of my Corvette and announced: "Anybody call for a cab?" Everybody broke down laughing, except for my wife. She about killed me!
