Hola from Cancun
Hey everyone,
I´m chillin´in Cancun and already spotted 2 SWEET C5´s. It´s amazing how non-third-world-country it is out here. Everyone driving brand new or later year model vehicles! Saw a couple vipers, benz, beamers, and even a brand new M5 out here. Driven by Mexican locals! And no, the C5 drivers didn´t wave.

The water is more clouded than i remembered last time, and the sand is full of pebbles and shells so it's hard to walk in the water without hurting your feet. Otherwise, Cancun's commercial zones are newer and have a more Los Angeles feel to them, if that's your cup of tea. I personally liked it more authentic Mexican like it was before. Otherwise, Cancun was a blast. Didn't spot any other C5's though. I didn't bring my laptop.. was just checking in ever couple of days using their business center in the hotel.
