Default Medium Spiral Gray Metallic Pics Please

I thought I saw one the other day and would like to see some pics if anyone has some. If this is what I saw, I must say I really liked it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but availability is limited to 03 and 04 right?

This is the beauty that I used to own before I traded it in on an '05 (dumb, dumb mistake!)


Yes, they only offered it in '03 and '04. And it is easy to tell apart the '03 and '04 by the nose logo and rear trunklid logo: in '03, they had the silver 50th anniversary badges, and in '04, they had the regular black C5 logos like they had the other C5 years.

And if you want more, bigger pictures, though it is a slow server, you can look at

Hmmm. My pictures in my photo gallery aren't currently available. This happens from time to time. Hopefully they will show up again, soon.

Spiral grey is one of my favorite colors. Must be pretty rare as well.

THAT LOOKS LIKE RED INTERIOR, RIGHT? I HAVE THE SPIRAL GRAY WITH TORCH RED INTERIOR AND IT LOOKS AWESOME. IN THE SUN THE GRAY IS VERY VERY METALLIC. GRAY AND RED IS A VERY RARE COMBO.

Mine is in my sig. It is a great color. But, as you can see above, they change color depending on the light conditions.

Yes, that is a torch red interior. Dang I loved that car and that color combo. I specifically went looking for either msgm/tr or machine silver/tr because of some of the silver/red sig pics I saw here on the forum. Here are a few more pics that show the interior better. But because it was a little dark inside the garage, the spiral gray takes on a deeper color.
