Cruiser meet Bruiser
Hi guys! I Just picked up an 04 coupe yesterday.
The drive from the dealership to my house is about 40 miles. All I can say is.... I love this car!! I now have a stable that houses 3 of my favorite vehicles. My newly purchased 2004 Coupe. I named it "Cruiser" My 1985 C4 coupe I call it "Bruiser" (see signature)and my 02 Lightning... I just call it "lightning"
I planned on getting a C6, but things didn't workout as planned. But I will say I'm glad I got a C5. It's an awsome car. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

The C5 has a more smoother ride and has offers more creature confronts.
