Default Best C5 video I've seen...

Found this on Jay's Garage last night.

GM should use this for their advertising.

"Who needs therapy when you have a corvette."

Enjoy.

Love the ZR1 video. The lap record at Nurburgring is by far my favorite Vette video.

Which Corsa exhaust do you think he had on the car to get that sound? It really did sound great.

Fun video, Jay is a blast and a true car enthusiast. I also checked out the pics of the cars from the movie Fast Five, which I saw last weekend, that were in Jay's garage.

That's pretty cool. I love how despite the numerous vehicles in his garage, he has nothing but good things to say about the Vette.
