Adding a C5 to the stable....

Well...we decided to add a C5 to the garage to keep the 94 company at night.

I am working with The VetteNet right now to arrange the pickup of my new 02 Electron Blue 1SC/MN6 Coupe.

I am excited to say the least.....

I can't wait to get in that machine and rock across the good-ol-US of A!

:crazy: :D :cool: :cheers:

Somehow I expected that from you! :)

That was what I was trying to decide. Either a ZR1 or a new C5. It was a tough decision but I thought I would go for the warranty..etc.. That being said, ZR1s are just awesome.

I guess I should give credit to my wife because without her equally good paycheck I could never afford two corvettes amoung my other vehicles.

The IT field pays well and if you find a stable company, stick with it even if the pay is not as good as the new startup across the street. Stability pays off in the long run.
