Default My new C5
Well after months of looking I finally found the perfect car for me. Just picked it up the other night. A 2000 triple black C5 M6 with 14k for miles and one owner. This car is absolutely mint, I thought the seller was going to shed a tear when I towed her down the road.
For mods its lowered one inch , zo6 calipers and rotors, air intake and mass af sensor, some cool chrome stuff under the hood and B&B exhaust, I think its route 66 but the seller was unsure, its only slightly louder then stock. Probably will switch to something with litte more growl to it for my taste. Also will probably tint the windows right away.

Hope the link works.
