Just thought I would share...I love this car! I am going to keep my C5 as a dedicated autocross car. Also thank you to the previous owners, Alan and Dave, for taking such good care of her!

WOOHOO!!!

BEAUTY!!!!

I had a DSOM 2005 Coupe, and when the Z06 came out I got one of the 282 made in DSOM!!

Below is a picture of the two cars, and the 2005 is still in the family (owned by my brother-in-law):




At the track last weekend there were two of us - here are the twins coming off the tri-oval and turning into the infield at Daytona:




Enjoy that beautiful car!!!
