Hey guys.... Thanks for all the replies!!!

Made the drive home today, all safe and sound, 840 miles, but they were not bothersome at all.

She drove perfectly, and the perma-grin was there (on top of the lack-of-sleep face). I am 100% satisfied with her as it is. My previous Camaro was modded (full bolt-ons + cam), but at the moment I can't even think of what I would do to this car

Again, thanks for all the replies, and the very warm welcome cheers:
I'll post some more pics next weekend when I get a chance to thoroughly wash/detail the car.

I even got waves from other C5 owners on the drive back, it was nice to see comraderie again, its very common with motorcyclists, and I used to ride, its always nice to get a wave from someone that appreciates those cars
