Default Need some help with C5's

Hey guys,

I usually hang out in the C4 section and I am looking at getting into a C5 but I would like some links or useful information on the differences between years. I am wanting to get into a Z06. I am having a hard time finding the differences w/o comparing technical pages to technical pages as the years progressed. Thanks in advance.

Bob

I looked for six months,knew I wanted a Z,read everything you can,go to auto trader,study prices nationwide.Print out the ones that fit your criteria and keep them for compairison.Not much diff. in year models,just buy the newest , lowest mileage one in your price range,then never second guess yourself,if you think you got a good deal then that's all that matters.You will love it! Good Luck .

You'll love the C5 and wonder why you didn't make the move earlier.
