Default Sold my 1st C5...

Sold my first ever corvette today. she was a 2002 mag red 40k with corsa x-pipes and pro series. Hate to let her go but...got a 50th ann coupe with all the option (dealer owned) with...975 miles. she was one of the dealership's personal collection. smelled just like it left Bowling Green. Should I go get corsa's set up again or just leave it stock?

Congrats - sounds like you made a great buy. IMO, get the exhaust - and make the car sound really good.

Congrats on your new car! I have a AE vert. Simply a stunning car. I've thought about selling my 04' CE to get an AE Coupe, but the wife has told me no way in hell! it only has 7000 miles on it. I'd start out with the Dyanatech header system and finish it off with a Corsa Pace Car exhaust. Let the mods begin. David
