My new MSG [PICS]
I had been looking for a C5 for a while and finally bought one on Saturday. 
It's a '03 'vert with only 4200 miles on the clock. It's like brand new: there are no scratches or dents anywhere on the car. Chassis seems to be in a great condition too. Interior is like brand new as well. The car is Spiral Gray w/ blk interior and that's the color combo that I was actually looking for. The car was ordered with some pretty good options - it has Z51, body side moldings and performance - 3.15:1 ratio, for example. I'm considering buying some new aftermarket exhaust-system on the car but I haven't decided yet which to buy - probably Borlas 
- and maybe some lowering too.
I didn't bought it from a country where I live in so I'm dying to go get it in Finland and drive it.
Anyway my driving experience so far is great! The car feels awesome I guess I'll go and pick up the car in a week or so

Beautiful color, beautiful car! What color is that called?
Congrats!
It looks lower than mine. The gap between the top of my tires and the bottom of the fender well looks far apart compared to other vettes that I look at when I walk pass. I wonder if there is a cheap way for me to fix that without stiffining the suspension?

Those aftermarket red calipers or painted? (Lemme look to make sure you didn't say that already) I don't remember if Z51 package included brakes.

Very nice i have a coupe the same color.I notice you have extra lights in the rear of the car and it seems like reflectors on the front fenders.My 03 does not have the extra lights.
