Does anyone wave?

- Start date
It's funny having owned two proper MG's it was/is always the custom to acknowledge another owner and by and large I always got a response to a wave (usually from bearded, flat capped and anorak wearing middle aged men). I have, however never waved or flashed at another Z4, and I now feel suitability shamed in not doing so
So I say that from this day forth we should make a vow to wave, flash or lift a finger to each other.....what do you say guys
Ps and yes doesn't matter if your a coupe or a convertible (the e89 is a convertible, which can look like a coupe
oke: )

when I had my Z3 I always waved and it was returned,
Now I have a Z4, you ignorant b*stards don't wave at all, so I have given up and just wave to Z3's
:rofl:

I wave or gesture to everything with a Z on it ( not camaros etc) and the other day I waved at a really old guy in a really old Benz convertible, beautifully restored. He didn't mind
I think a lot of the E89 drivers are BMW snobs and don't even know the unwritten rules of owning cool cars.... :thumbsdown:

It's always good to get conversation going!
From what I can gather on all your replies is that most Z4 owners are not wavers, which is a shame as it's a nice little part of any cars ownership. I'll see what happens when I come across my first coupe though. My Mrs always thinks I'm a nutter anyway when I wave!

I do acknowledge other zed drivers , however rarely get a respose. A few week back had abit of fun with with a couple of young guys on the cathkin bypass , ( that does sound weird ,,lol ) anyways we arivved at the roundabout side by side , looked across an waved , myself , the other zed driver and his passenger were all grinning from ear to ear ,,,,,, great stuff ! :driving:
Riding motorcycles for years the wave is just second nature and I enjoy it. I have tried on many occasions while driving to wave to fella drivers. The most acknowledgement I've gotten is scowls and of course the finger salute ( I hope it's just mistaken of my wave for something else). What a different response just because of a different vehicle.
I saw the identical car to mine last night on the way home stopped at lights facing me. Could resist a full blown wave as opposed to the normal finger lift and the guy looked at me like I'd escaped Broadmoor...! I'd have thought that a head nod at least was in order...
