Up for sale is my 2003 electron blue c5 coupe with manual 6 speed transmission. I am the original owner and it currently has 21.5k miles. The car is located in the NW suburbs of Chicago and I am asking $22,500.

My car is in immaculate condition as I rarely drive it and when I do it only goes out on nice days. The only reason for the sale is I have decided to order a C7 in the spring. If I am not able to sell my car privately (I’m only posting it here on the forum), I will be trading it in to my dealer, but I figured I would give another enthusiast an opportunity to own this great car.

On to the details, this car does have a few tasteful modifications. Nothing has ever been done to the engine, it’s all stock down to the paper air filter and has never given me any issues. All fluids were changed last year. The modifications are listed below:
- Borla stinger quad tip exhaust
- MGW shifter with custom C6 shift ****
- DSV shifter boot, e-brake handle, e-brake boot
- Redline goods center console cover
- OEM C5Z red brake calipers
- Lloyds floor and cargo mats
- Stainless C5 door sill entry guards
- Aux-in on factory radio
- Custom exhaust plate
- Speed lingerie bra (electron blue)
- Many coats of Zaino

The car has never been driven hard or raced. I have used it for weekend driving and have taken it on a few hot rod power tours. Last year I replaced the OEM tires due to their age in preparation for this year’s power tour, which I long hauled and had no issues with the car. I would completely trust this car to drive across the country without concern.

On to the pics, which speak for themselves:









































Please let me know of questions, thank you for looking.

All, the ad above is for my dad's car, which I can 100% vouch for. He hadn't previously been a member of the forum, and as such I posted this for sale yesterday on his behalf, which apparently is a violation of the forum rules. Eventhough this is his first post, this is a legit sale and the new owner will not be disappointed.

This is my brothers car. The car is in fantastic shape. My wife said I could buy it but then I have to sell my C3. I told her I want both, again is one of the best C5's you'll find.

PM back to Del1, yes this car is still available and will be traded into my dealer in about 2 months if not sold on here.

Thanks for the compliments, sorry I do not check in on here very often. This is truly a great, no story car and it will be missed, but the C7 itch is too strong not to scratch.

Countdown to trade-in is a matter of weeks away, if interested in this beauty, let me know.
