hi again
whoops, hit enter to quick..lol
I just sold my 99 BLK z28 Camaro convertable last month and find myself coming down with Corvette syndrome. I think the only cure is to get one (will be my first)
My budget is telling me 1997-2000 C5 (2000 if im lucky)
Would like some input as to any quirks with these years , which is a good yr? I have seen some nice mooking 99's in local ads (Phoenix area) BTW, this is a nice site and I'l be back often...

You owe it to yourself to read the thread at the top of the page. In it you will find just about everything you ever wanted to know and something you didn't want to know about C5's. Read it and memorize it - as there will be a test later on......it's called OWNERSHIP!
