Great colour choise! I love that combination! I'm also one of those who is jealous... C5's are so expensive in here that I can't afford one for about 10years...

Man, everybody is getting a C5 but me. And I want one in the worst way. In a couple years maybe.

Dalannex....

There's not that many that have C5's on this board. It just seems like it the last few days with the posts from new owners. Trust me.... if I win that Dale Earnhardt or Gold 50th Anniversary vette you all are gonna have to hear from me too. :cheers:
Win a Corvette??? What are you talking about? Is it a museum raffle?

Welcome to the club!!! You're going to LOVE your C5. Nothing like Active Handling to save your butt when you're learning to drive the wheels off!

Now, go online and order a Blackwing Air Intake for it...I got one used for $100 and it ups the HP to about 370 at the flywheel.
