1st drive in a C5
My C2 has 300 HP 4 speed.
Added a C5 for dailey driving
My observations:
1. Hands above the C4 (had a 92) - no comparison.
2. I need a radar detector - opened it up to 100 on a deserted section of highway - this is alot of bang for the buck.
3. This is one nice ride

And like M6 Vetter said, it is an amashing car. And with a few more
it just gets more and more amashing...

Congrats on your new Vette. I had a C2 a long time ago and loved the car. The C5 sure is a different car compared to the C2 in handling, refinement, power etc. Good Luck.
