I saw the next or previous I dont remember on ebay. I was looking at it because it looked just like my car. And the VIN caught my eye. It was the same color and had the same options.

Vin is 00270. Would be real sweet to find someone near mine! Only 269 C5's are older than mine... oh wait.. that's probably not a good thing.
