Damn, I love this car and this color. To sell the C6Z for this rare beauty or not... that is the question. Good luck with sale. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

Price lowered $13,500. Make me an offer. This is a very nice, rare C5, I am just moving on to other adventures.

Another Iowa guy who absolutely loves the green color! I wish that they had continued to include green colors into the 2002-04 series which is where I've been looking lately. However, this one is really tempting!

According to several sources, light oak was first available in 1998.
In 1997 light grey, black and red was the interiorcolors.
Your pictures look more grey than oak, are you sure this isn't light grey interior?

Great looking car at a good price in a "rare" color...................Sorry l'm not a buyer (just got one not long ago in 'boring, burn your eyeballs red"!!!)

But l have a question regarding your reg plate choice.

l have found that every hillbilly/redneck/meth-head/meathead & his favorite sister want to race me anywhere & everywhere anyway without provoking them,
or do the folks up in your neck of the woods not "take-the-bait" quite so easily as the hungry catfish down here??

Nice color! Does it come with a second color match targa top? Any pics of the underside? Being an Iowa car is there any rust or corrosion on the underside on any aluminum or other metal components?
