The wife and I have been searching for a C5 for me. Found one on that Auction site and really believe this to be a rare and unique Vette.

Here is an excerpt from the listing,

Instrument Panel
Clock
Tachometer
Trip Computer
Power
Mirrors Heated : Heated Mirrors
Power Door Locks
Power Windows
Rear Seat
Quantity : Bucket Rear Seat

Roof/Glass
Front Wipers : Intermittent
Rear Defogger

Notice the rear seat!!!!! It has a busket rear seat in it.... As the wife said, great for necking.......

Now that's a rare vette with a bucket rear seat.....

It's probably one of those rare cardboard Vettes we saw on here a couple of weeks ago!

Remember, those busket seats are not as capable as our front sport seats 'cause the buskets will not rock. I'd ask for a solid $12 discount because of that. Oh, BTW, I wouldn't pay a penny more for that stupid ricer add-in - you know, the instrument panel.

Seriously, I own an '88 coupe (selling it this month) and an '02 roadster. I love your C4-I wish mine was like it!

It is amazing how people describe the Corvettes on that auction site. We found one with a drivetrain that had a V-Style Engine.... Damn, I wanted a H-Style Engine..
