Thanks for the welcome!
The car will be delivered next week. I am purchasing it from a broker I found on this forum, actually. I will try to post some pictures when it gets here. I was holding out for a C5, but my other half liked the C4s better, so he made the final decision. In terms of a shop, I live in central VA, between Richmond and Charlottesville.
