no jack, no spare on C5's. get a floor jack that will get under 3", leave room for a hockey puck on top of the jack seat so you don't damage your rocker panels. I bought a jack from Harbor Freight.

I'm right here. 
Seriously, the C5 does not come with a jack. Since GM put runflats on the car from the factory, no jack was included. Just find yourself a good low profile floor jack and then do your calipers.

NO JACK/NO SPARE. Get a flat your screwed
Can always do what I do....take the jack out of my wifes honda and throw it in the car on long trips. Also carry a tire repair kit and the mini compressor (Z06's came with it, not sure about coupe?)

it bolts to the bottom side of the targa top just in case you need to lift it off at high speeds. Like said above, these cars came with EMT-runflat tires, minus the Z06s, so there isn't a jack or a spare tire.

I needed a good laugh this morning! Behind the rear seat? Seriously the C5's did not come with jack or spare tire. It also came with runflat tires, but you might want to check to see if those have been replaced with non-runflats. I bought an inexpensive 1 1/2 ton floor jack from autozone. I have to run the wheels up on a 2 x 6 board to get enough clearance. That does fine for tire changes and minor underneath service. Hope you enjoy you car!
