Default Cabin air filter ?

Is there an air filter inside the car that needs changing ?
I know some cars have a filter that filters incomming air from the air ducts . Just wondering about these c5's .

Some have the nylon foam air filter placed over the induction duct on the drivers side under the hood and at the base of the windshield. These generally are good for larger items as bugs and leaves but not anywhere close to a hepa type filter.

C6 (non-Z06) have a cabin filter. But the others are correct, no on C5.
