Hi all!

I am a neebee from the c4 group. Just sold my 91 and bought a Torch Red 99 with only 11,000 original miles.

Hope to gain some new friends and valuable info on the c5 forum.

Looking forward to chatting with all of you.

Photoguy from PA GO STEELERS!!

Welcome to the Forum. I was thrilled to find a 99 a year ago with 18k miles. If it's anything like mine it is nice and tight and drives like a new one.
