Welcome to the forum. Sounds like a nice C5 you have there. There are always ways of making your C5 faster than either of your prior cars you mentioned. Lots of ways to enjoy the C5 no matter what you want to do to it.

This C5 is a great car and very reliable. Now all you need to do is mod it a little(or a lot) to make it your own. There's always more power waiting to be tapped.

Welcome!

Nice color choice

I recommend the Corsa Indy exhaust to gain that exotic exhaust at WOT sound and a nice cold air intake such as calloway honker or similiar.

Welcome to the forum. If you think you need questions answered this is the place to go. However..... I wouldn't ask "Which exhaust sounds best?" It seems there might not be complete agreement on the forum over that one.

Welcome to the forum. I have admired other cars, but have always felt the Corvette gives the most bang for the buck, hands down. I owned one 28 years ago, then waited 25 years while raising a family, and really like the one we have now, "wonderful" leather and all.
