2. Chrome wheels were screaming "Old Man, Old Car" so I bought some black spiders designed for the 2009 C6 Z06. That made the car look so different, and contemporary, and uniquely mine.

3. The tiny tail pipes of the stock coupe looked and sounded too timid for such a great sports car, so I went with Corsa Pace and X Pipe, and I love love love the sound and the appearance.

4. My bose speakers took a major dump when they started crackling and rumbling, so I called Dennis at Double D a few weeks ago and got a 5 Channel Kenwood amp, Kenwood single DIN, and five JL speakers including a 10" sub, and holy crap!!! Let's just say I'm not listening to the Corsa very much anymore, but the music never stops!

So yeah. Making my C5 MY C5 has been really fun, and very rewarding.

I dont get the urge to have more power AT ALL! This car is quick as hell, and I don't really need to go faster than I should. Not ever.

Black on black....good looking ride.
