c-5s are beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!
O.K., I've had a couple of beers, but just realize how darn beautiful thesr cars are! I was just sitting watching some stupid T.V. show with the wife and was totally bored so I went out to the garage to kool out and just stared at my beautiful torch red coupe! The c-5 is, in my humble opinion, the best looking Vette ever built! I have owned 18 Vettes over the last 43 years [ first vette at 19] and even though I really liked my "57" fuely [first Corvette] at the time I think the c-5 is the best Vette ever built at least looks wise!! I could certainly afford a c-6 but to me they just don't have "the look".

I'd have to rank the C2 Vettes right up there looks-wise, but the C5 can hold its own against any generation.

Even after six years of ownership, I still look at my C5's and can't believe I own one, let alone own two! I spend a lot of my time in the garage at the workbench (like now) on the lap top smoking cigars standing a foot or so away from one of the cars. Believe me - beer has nothing to do with it!

Just cleaned up my ten year old chevy, sitting by the car and on the laptop. A REALLY NICE C3, around 69-71 would be nice, but the C5 is the best looking vette yet!
And,,,,Bonus,,,,easiest and believe it or not, cheapest to mod into supercar status!
Beer is VERY cold, Cigar is very smooth at post time!

Only thing nicer the 1 C5 is 2 C5's... that said, I really like the looks of the C6Z06 and would not be a bad thing to open the garage and see one of them sitting there wanting to know where we are going today!
