After many happy years of C4 ownership (had three of 'em)...I've finally gone over to the
Dark Side .
Just got this 2004 MSG Coupe. Awesome car. More details (and pix) to come...but not tomorrow. I'm gonna drive it all day..!!

Congrats on a beautiful C5! Always loved that color, and had that been a Z06 color, I'd have waited until I found one ...
Just got a C5 as well this week... loving every second.. hope you are too.

nice color !
With you having an LT4 - you are use to great power. What you'll notice more on the C5 is it's stiff frame; makes you feel you're one with the road.
