What was I thinking?
I was thinking of selling my vert for a C5. ( just wanted a change, I guess) Then I got some ZR1 rims, and I have a whole new appreaciation for it! 
Looks like I'll stay in the C4 family for a long time.

Unless there was some specific reason you wanted a C5, I'd keep what you have. It looks like a beautiful car and vehicles that look like yours are normally maintained just as well. You know what shape your car is in and if you purchase one from someone whom you most likely would not know, you may just inherit a major headache.
I think you made a good choice by keeping what you have.

Hard to argue with that dark red/tan combo.
