Wave at what??

No, I am just kidding! Why C6 drivers don't wave depends on many things. Many C6s are probably owned by people who don't know about the wave. Maybe this is their first Vette. If enough others wave they might start to understand. It is up to others who know to educate those who don't.

I know I have missed a few. It all depends on what I am paying attention to at the time. If I am turning a corner chances are I might miss the wave if you are on the opposite side of my turn or cars get in the line of sight.

I was out on Saturday and got several waves. Gave many in return.

Many are first time Vette owners and are unaware of "the wave." Keep waving, they'll figure it out some day.

As others have said, for many it's their first vette and they simply don't know about the heritage.
For others, they simply buy it as a show piece and have no interest in the heritage. To them, they were cross-shoppings Vettes, BMW, Porchse, etc. They don't know about the wave and don't care.

This question comes up with every new generation since at least the C4's that I can recall. And the suggestion is always put forth that Chevy ought to at least include with every vette a little pamphlet talking about it's history and the history of "the wave". But they don't.
It also gets suggested that the salesman should make them aware of it, but then ya figure that most salesman probably don't know about it unless they are a dealer that somewhat specializes in vettes. And even then...

We had this same debate when C5's were new. Why dont the C5 guys wave!?!?!?

Actually, I think C6 guys are better at waving than the C5 guys ever were (are? ). I know I wave at all the 'Vette's I see. I've even waved while drving my DD.

I wave too! If I'm in front of a Corvette, I'll "wiggle my hips" too! (The car's hips, not mine!) Unless there's a honey driving!

 

[Zippy]

I've been driiving C6's since 2005 and wave or at least flash my lights at passing Vettes.

Zippy at you now!

 

[vett boy]

OK bucket from what I've read so far it must be you

 

[catbert]

My windows are usually rolled up. I wave, but maybe you can't see me.
