Default So Long and Thanks

Today I took delivery of my new C6 coupe with 3LT package and other goodies.
I just wanted to thank all the folks here on the C5 forum for all the great help valuable information.
My 97 won't be going far as my neighbor bought it. He has lusted over the car since I have had it and he jumped right on it and now it sits in his garage.

So, as I move over to the C6 forum again, thanks for the tons of help; couldn't have done as much to my C5 without your valuable help and insight.
Thanks again
Slider.

Here is the new and the old.
