Default I'm Back ;)

Well, some of you might remember my Nassau Blue Vette that I sold beginning of the year. I was planning on buying something different, but I caught the bug again, and couldn't pass up on a local 01 millennium yellow (6 speed) that I saw. So long story short, I'm back amongst my fellow C5ers Car is bone stock (not for long though). But it has some nice options, the HUD being my favorite so far. It's a fantastic little feature
I've only got a few pics so far, but there will be more coming.
Here's my old Nassau Blue:


And here's the new 01 MY:

I'm really happy with the Vette. Already thinking about exhaust...I'll probably go with the B&B bullets again (had them on my last C5). And so it starts...
That Jeep looks sick!
Thanks...it's my daily driver...it takes me anywhere I want to go...really

Your Nassau Blue C5 was a real beauty, but so is the Mil Yellow one that replaced it. Congrats and enjoy your new car.
