Default wave at passing 5th gens?

Just wondering if anyone else in older camaros wave at the new ones, or vice-versa.

seems whenever i wave at a 5th gen, only 1 out of 5 wave back.
are they too concentrated on driving?
too cool to wave at "the old ones"?
or just have no idea about camaro... ownership?

your thoughts/experiences?

just in comparison, whenever i see another 4th gen they dont even seem to notice me, if they even know what they are driving themselves? (90% are women in v6?)

Most of the 5th gen owners around me tend to be younger kids who don't know of/seem interested in older camaros/f-body cars. I don't really bother waving at them because I know they will be confused

Yeah..just the like women in v6's for 4th gens, the new 5th gens are mostly younger kids in v6's who dont care/have interest in anything other. They just think theyre badass in theyre new v6 camaro lol. I only give thumbs up/waves to guys in nice cars who I know will appreciate it

haha i think about it everytime i drive past a camaro but i dont wave. what made me think about it is when i see bikers on the freeway or street they always wave or put up fingers or point down i always liked that its like respect for another biker i dont see much with cars tho

I would usually throw a quick rev at other 4gen owners
But most 5gen owners usually seem to be jobers that have no clue/ Passion for these cars

I usually do the courtesy rev when I see another f body that is nice.. When I see a beat down 3rd gen I don't bother.. Vette guys are old and think my cars too loud... Haters... Lol

No love from the 5th gen owners. Most I see are trendy people who want to LOOK cool. They have no concept of our world, nor do they care.
