A Vette gave me a peace sign the other day on the 405, might be because of the plate. Damn his car was fast... Don't ask...

Yup, that sounds about the same here, I'm never paying attention right away! and for heavens sakes its not because us gals never look!! Someone said that to me once...hmmm maybe it is true with some, but I have been waved to a couple times...I usually try to get a hand up quick...ahhh hehe Especially when I'm cruising around But funny enough I usually get more acknowledgments from Corvette drivers! That and at gas stations....

I usually wave whenever I see an F-body...although I usually only wave at the nicer looking ones...doesn't matter which gen. as long as it is clean.

The wave is the same thing among riders. Whenever I pass bikes, I drop the hand. Regardless of bike.
I usally only wave to bikes. Damn rockets never wave back. I didn't know about the vette wave, but I do now. I will give a nod to a nice car though.

Ya, there are people that are arrogant on both sides, whether jap bikes or american bikes. I wave to whoever. The honda I got is decent, though I am looking for a Harley, but not for the reasons that all these rich urban bastards have one. I just like loud and american . For me, its all about the ride, not what you ride. " Live to ride, ride to live"

when im in the vette i try and wave when i see another vette. i also notice most of the c5 owners don't know about the wave or something, in the c4 or lower i get alot more responses back. for example yesterday i was out in the c5 saw a nice blue z06 and waved, the dude was on the cell and i get a little nod back. i think most of the people are afraid of waving and then getting ignored, so they wont initiate the wave...if that makes sense. haven't tried waiving to Fbodies when im in the camaro though.

I always flip a thumbs up to other F bodies. Same to older muscle cars, vipers and vettes. most of the time I dont get a responce maybe its because im 16 and people think my formula is a v6. I wish more people would do the wave/thumbs up
