I have a 69,,427/390 four speed,,,and it is a hoot to play around with and such,,,,,but for sexy lines,,handling and overall performance,,my FRC hands down!!! A hot summer trip got my wife to ENCOURAGE me to get a "newer one with A/C"!! 2 1/2 years with the FRC,,and almost 23,000 miles of smiles,,I drive it a lot anywhere anytime for any reason,,hardly set foot in anything else except when I need to drive my truck!! The C5 is an eye catcher in it's own right,,, IMO ageless!! Yes the classics garner attention,,they are great looking,,,but a lot of that attention is because you RARELY see one out!! As time and attrition thins the C5 herd,,and more vette generations arrive,,the C5 will,,IMO slowly gain even more attention. I know I won't be around when/if it ever reaches interest/collector status,,but I don't care!!It's the best looking ,best performing,,most fun and versatile car I've ever owned,,and I DRIVE it!! Cruising,test and tune,running errands and even travel,,you can't beat this car!! The wife loves it too!!
