For all you guys that still have icky weather - sorry! I got some good driving time in this weekend. Great weather - sunny, temperature in the low '70's, top down, side pipes blaring (talk louder, I still can't hear you
). I saw 2 other C3's on Saturday - didn't get a wave back from either
. Now I expected that from the 3 C5's I saw, but from other C3's? That just ain't right..

John, I'd LOVE to wave back atcha, but . . . see my recent post under chit-chat. It won't happen anytime soon.

Good for you! Wave like crazy next time and make them feel like the low-lifes they are.

Serves ya right fer bashin my fellow C5 buds.... I wave at em all. We've had this debate before. It's not the model its the PASSION. Don't worry John I don't hold a grudge... I'll still continue to wave til they puke...

I got out myself it was around 50 degrees, I was letting the big brute clear itself out (at about 75mph), I saw a white C-3 coming at me, I was so excited that I threw my whole arm out the window to wave.
Well at that speed and at my age, the wind almost dislocated my shoulder
. Hey, at least he did wave back


I'll be out again as son as my shoulder feels better. 

It was 65 and sunny as could be here. Pulled the car out of the garage and cruised it to the hospital..............to see our new grand daughter who was born 15 minutes after we arrived. Great day for cruisin!!!And.......I waved at every Corvette I saw and they all waved back.
I'm not even going to tell you what the weather is like here in SoCal. According to the calendar, it's still winter - yeah, right!

I'm hoping to get her outta the garage for a drive to work today. And ya, its sad when a C3 doesn't wave back. I never get a wave back from C5 owners, guess their just too good for me
