Flew in to Raleigh NC to pick up my new 04 Black/Mod Red Z and drive it back to Florida. I've owned a few C3's but have never driven a C5 Z.

All I can say is, what a beast. Talk about bang for the buck, it's well balanced, looks great and is comfortable. The car was tuned (dynoed 366hp), has P2's, stainless brake lines, aftermarket brake pads and a few additional accessories and shows 13k miles on the clock.

I bought the car from a forum member (thanks Steve) and it was exactly as advertised. Thanks CF.

Let the modding begin.

Mike
