Options on C5
I'm searching for a C5 to replace my stolen C5 and was wondering if anyone knows if "Magnetic Ride" is the same thing as "Soft Ride"?
Also, what does "SLM-Stock Orders" mean on the build sheet? Or "DD8-OSRV"?
Thanks in advance

No. Magnetic Ride, Option code F55 is the adjustable ride suspension. There will be a select **** on the console to select Tour or Sport.

I believe Soft-Ride is the FE1 base suspension. OSRV is Outside Rear View Mirror......
Magnetic ride is F55 and will say that along with FE1 on a buildsheet. The FE1 components are the springs and swaybars. The shocks and the associated sensors are what makes up the F55.

It was stolen, taken for a joy ride, driven through a softball fence so they could do donuts in the outfield, almost got stuck in the infield(rained all weekend) and then tried to leave the scene and ran into a pole. Let's just say the pole didn't show any sign of damage.
I'll have pictures later.

Hope your next one is as good or better than the last.

Interesting, I wonder how they got past the VATS? Sounds like they were kids, and kids aren't too skilled at hi-tech thievery.
BTW, sorry for your loss, I hate having a car stolen, you feel personally assaulted, especially a 'vette, it's more than a car, it's a hobby.
Good luck selecting your next car.
