Bit the bullet today....
Well, I picked up a 2005 black C6 with all the goodies today.
14K miles, $39000 plus tax, etc. Overall am very pleased.
As much as I love the C5, when I get into the C6, it's how I felt when I jumped from C4 to C5.
At any rate, I will put up my C5 for sale, and see how that goes.
