Hi All,

After three great years of C5 ownership and two years on the C5-side of this great forum, I'm afraid it's time to say adios.

My wonderful Silver/Black 02' C5 sold today and the new owner (whom is at least a CF lurker) may be posting about his new pride and joy.

You guys have been great and I've learned a ton about Corvettes and C5's in particular.. I hope I've been able to help some people out as well.

My new MS 07' Z06 is being built week of 6/11 and I'll be spending most of my time on the 'dark' side.

I'll be sure to post some C5 to C6Z impressions once I get some miles on her.

I hope to 'see' some of you good folks over there.

Take care and remember to keep the shiny side up.


Chris
