Default Back in a Vette again!
I recently sold my 03 Z06 500 horse for an 03 Cobra/Saleen. I love the Mustang very much, but I just came across an 04 Comm Z06 that I had to buy. Feels good to be back in a C5 again. This forum is a great place with a wealth of info. That's one reason I prefer a Vette. I will post pics soon...
