Thanks everybody.

This is the third C5 I have owned. I bought a 1997 Silver coupe with 2,000 miles on it in 1998. I then ordered a 99 Nassau Blue Hardtop new in 99 and the last C5 I had six years ago was a 01 Silver coupe with Torch Red interior.

Hopefully this one stays in the garage much longer.

Congratulations. Looking good. You appreciate the nice finds that much more after you have gone on few of those searches that weren't quite what you were hoping for.
