Nice Z06... I like the wheel choice, and the interior is real nice too.

I agree, I like the wheels. So how long have you been stationed at PC? My wife is from PC and we miss it, too damn cold up here.

Nice, if any C5s ever become collectors items.. you've got one that's close to the top of the list.

Keep all the stock parts if you decide to mod it.

White C5's are really growing on me. To find a white Z with red interior--life is good for you!

My Z is Black, and I love it to death.
But on my desk top I have a pic of a White Z with SP500 wheels.
Congrats on a great find.

Very nice combo, but the wheels gotta go! Put the OEM's on if you can find a set. The 01 Z wheels (Alcoas) are actually very hard to find and only add to the rarity of the car, and they look waaay better!
