Default Camaro Wave?

Do you wave to other camaro's on the road? Have had a vette for little over a year now and love the vette wave. Just curious because it never seemed to be happening back when I had my 4th. gen 2 yrs. ago. Thinking about picking up a 5th gen. and would like to see the wave held strong Although I think that the V6 option of the camaro has an impact on the wave

I get a wave or give one every time I see another WS6 on the road, camaro owners seem to car less. I will wave to a nice z or ss since I am into them too.

Theres nothing like the jeep wrangler/cj wave. unfortunately with all fo the yupees getting jeeps the last several years, that wave went away.

i will wave to camaros if the person seems to be looking at me, but im so rarely in my camaro, i usually get funny looks. haha

when in the camaro i wave if the person is looking (camaro or trans am).

I wave if it's a modded f-body or looks like the person takes pride in and cares for their V-8 f-body. I used to drive a 1978 Corvette with a big cammed 406, muncie 4 speed, and open chrome hooker side headers/side pipes and loved the vette wave, but it always got tons of attention anyways.

I recall when the F-body LS1 were brand new (2001), the enthusiast who purchased them new would wave to each other. I was among those. As the cars got older and enthusiast switched to other models/makes, often the second/third hand owners couldn't careless. I slowly watched the Camaro wave disappear and turn into a rev and peel out situation. If I see an enthusiast with any year Camaro, I give them a wave or thumbs up.
