I tried a few times around me, but got mixed responses.

Now its only to the few moded ones around.

I gave a nod to a vet guy once and got the WTF look, so I gave up on them immediately.

yeah, i wave to other camaros and maybe 50% get get one back. i'v given up on vette people. most think there stock vette can blow me away. if i notice a pontiac person looking i'll wave. i try to be minnesota nice, oh well. a week ago a porche was giving me a little so i kept up with him and he waved, i thought that was cool. too much traffic to race.

Actually, many are folks who have not been blessed in the way you suggest and choose to remedy that by buying a shiny vette. Sadly, the availability of Viagra and Cialis has not reduced that trend.

I find that 3rd gen owners are the least likely to respond, almost 0%, lol. Theyre the only ones I've given up on waving at.

"Sometimes I wave to people I don't know. It's very dangerous to wave to someone you don't know because, what if they don't have a hand? They'll think you're cocky. 'Look what I got ************! This thing is useful. I'm gonna go pick something up!'"

I try to wave when i see a nice TA, or Camaro but it seems most look at me like i'm crazy! Periodically i'll get someone who understands and actually waves back. As far as Corvette's are concerned I never wave to them. I did a couple times when i first got my car and realized i was wasting my energy trying to be nice.

I think he was talking about a Ford GT not a Ford Mustang GT...

i always wave to LS cars...just to be polite ...although i am guilty of snickereing at the mustangs that try to play..every mustang owner with the exception of 1 guy has been a cocky arrogant assmunch...not saying they all are like that..but in my experience they have been.

I wave to Tech members I know. Other then that, I pretty much ignore everyone. Civics and swapped V8's tend to wave at me, though.

I let my friend drive my car while I rode shotgun about a month ago. We come up to a light on a small road and there's a black C6 Z06 with tint and full exhaust at the other side of the light. When the light turned green my friend started to go, then waved at the Z06 (who waved back, he was a young dude), and then my friend mashed it. I was surprised at the vette owner, but then I was like, hey why's my friend acting like my car is his?
