First off, who cares? Are u contemplating on buying it?

This guy is a troll. He has another post in the C5 forum, and, a look at his posts shows his only motive is to diss other people's cars.

These are the type of posts that gives us all a bad name.

Are we all feeling superior now? what a waste of web space!!
