I wave to the B4C Cops cars that Fort Worth Police Dept have. He looks at me weird everytime. Guess he's not an F-Body enthusiast, just his work vehicle!

I stopped waving in my town. F-body owners up here are a bunch of **** jugglers and act like their **** doesn't stink. Hell, even a WS6 owner told me my car sucks because its a base model.

If I'm in a different city I'll wave and 90% of the time they'll wave back.

I was going to say the same thing. A lot of owners aren't necessarily "enthusiasts" like we are. So if they are just looking straight ahead in their own zone, I don't wave. But if I see them look up or something to see my car, then yeah I will wave or kind of flick my fingers at them while on the steering wheel (wow that sounds so dumb when typed out, but I'm sure you all know exactly what I mean lol).

+1, it's usually a nod, a raised hand, and sometimes a rev

Little less than half of the vette owners here will wave back. Figures. I'm going to stop waving unless they initiate it, which sometimes people do!

We had a ton of LS1 B4C's here for the FHP and I would wave or rev at a red light when I was next to one of the officers. They would usually laugh and haul ***. The guys that had them were pretty cool.

I usually wave or do a thumbs up or something, unless it's obvious they're not really into the car. Anyone with me in my car thinks I've lost my mind and doesn't seem to get it, they figure "these people don't know you! they're probably thinking, look at this lunatic girl in the sebring-thing!" Oh well, I still give it a shot.

I wave to all F-Bodies, most vettes, and all old muscle cars. I usually just get strange looks. Except from the muscle car guys. They understand that it means I like their car and they wave back.

Not a waver here, nor anyone else. But if I have my dads Vette out then I always get the wave from fellow Vette drivers, which there are a lot around here.

I try to hit the lights (fog) @ other T/A's .. I wave @ all F-bods. I only rev when I pass someone (turning or cruising).

I think everyone should wave .. like the jeep folks and bikers.

Where's the unity people!?!?!?

it went out the window when looking gay was no longer cool.......you would look pretty funny around my parts, you would be so busy waving you wouldnt have time to drive your car, youd have to stop on the side of the road to catch up.

I "wave" at pretty much any nice car (even at a Mustang because there is a good chance its a girl driving it). I say "wave" because I don't think anybody does a full on wave anymore. Sometimes its a lazy-*** raising a few fingers off of the wheel, sometimes it's a nod, a quick honk, or, if it's a really badass sounding car, a thumbs up is given.

I wave at all FBodies but for some reason I get less waves back from the Corvette guys.
