Jay Leno's C5

http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showt...light=corvette

Found this over in the NSX forum. Someone pulled up next to Jay driving in his C5 and took a pic.

Nice car color!

One of the car mgazines had an article on Jay Leno when he got that car. It was his first vette. I think it has custom wheels and exhaust and some modest performance upgrades

I would love to be able to walk out to my garage and just a car that fit my driving style for that day. Jay's collection of cars is incredible.

I remember one story with a guest on his show saying that she stopped and asked him if he needed help since he was apparerntly broken down on the freeway. He said unless you have a Lamborghini clutch somewhere in there you cant...
