John,
I've been thinking of doing something, but I am not sure where to start. I have a '97 MN6 with the Corsa Pace Car exhaust and and aftermarket air intake filter from Exit 28. I like the car now, but I want to do something to get that little "extra." Car is beautiful (25,900 miles) What do you recommend? It can be either suspension, brakes, engine/hp. I am not the best mechanic and don't have access to a lift, but do understand what it may take.
Let me know where you may start. This forum is great, but it is hard to find out where everyone started. Thanks!

Ron :cheers:

Damn dude, didn't the moderators already locked up your previous 99999999999999999999 posts, similar to this one? I'm pretty sure there is a reason for that. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe you should contact them and find out why. Or at least go back to your previous posts because I'm pretty sure they'll leave you a hint before locking them up. :cheers:

How about an affordable TT? That would definitely bring the C5 up a notch. In fact, it would put it where it belongs, something GM doesn't quite understand yet. I drove a 911 pre-owned TT today Its actually the 3rd time I drove a 911 TT - boy was I tempted. Even went down to Carmax to see what they would give me for the C5.

BTW, Supra is gonna have a TT very soon. Lets not forget about the Mustang SC coming out! Come on GM, get your s h i t together GM or you'll wind up like BMW (who also refuses to deliver something inspiring on the inside) - lots of lost sales. Sorry, just venting.

) Boy- boy was I tempted.

What are you talking about? Supra has been running with the TT for quite awhile now.

I'm talking about modern-day Supras, of which there are none. I hear Toyota is bringing it back.

I was at a Lexus dealership test-driving their SC Coupe. I told them it was underpowered for that kind of money. he then says, "They are going to be doing something with the car in 'o4. Then he says, "Or You can always wait for the $80K TT that Toyota is about to unleash.

Mark,

Toyota is still making Supra's today over in Japan. They just don't import them into that States.

Hmm, didn't know that. I should have guessed, though, cause so many other things never make it to the states.
