04Z with 56K on the clock. I just finished waxing. I am not a fan of the black wheels, so that's the next upgrade. Car has an aftermarket intake and Corsa exhaust. Just thought I would share.

Congrats and welcome to the forum. I really like the black wheels. I wish you were in Hawaii. I'd buy them from you! I can't find any of them over here and they're to expensive to ship.

I think the black wheels are awesome. Give them a shot, they may grow on you.

Welcome to the club, and nice ride! Let me know what you want for the black wheels. Selling them can help you defray the cost of getting wheels you do want.

If anyone is near enough to central virginia to pick them up, I will sell the wheels and tires for 900.00. I think that is a fair price.

Since U don't like blk...consider C6 11-13 star wheels. Either base silver or chrome. Don't know abt the fit part. Easy to keep clean and they look sharp. Look for these on Craigslist. Not expensive.

Also consider 04Z polished Z16 wheels.

C6 GS chrome or silver would set it off (again...don't know abt fit).
C6 Z is a popular choice and look sharp on C5Z.
C5Z in chrome look OK on MY (don't care for them on other colors).

Wildest wheels right now...

Let us know w/pic when done.
