Default Bought a C3 From a C5.

I'll be picking up my new C3 1977 383 stroker tomorrow. Can't wait. I have to change my photo. I had a 2003 Z.

Sounds like you started with the "Race Car" and now your going for the "cruiser".

Good Luck Enjoy and post pictures

My son has an '02 Z06 and although it's now 15 years old, it's still an incredible car. it's a race car, corners like it's on rails, accelerates so hard, it makes me light headed, but it's also a luxurious and dependable daily driver, is watertight, gets decent gas mileage, and still damn good looking. It'll eat up the miles in comfort, and a good choice for a cross country trip. However, that being said, I prefer my '72. It's loud, not that comfortable, not that fast, tends to wander a bit on the freeway, not dependable enough for an interstate trip, and the last car I would want to be in during a rainstorm. Needless to say, not a daily driver by any means. But I love it, it get the looks, makes me feel like Batman, starts a conversation at every fillup, and there's nothing I can't fix on it. More power to ya, brother...
