Default Hello all
I am recently the owner of a 2004 LeMans blue, commemorative edition, convertible, 6 speed C5. It has Shale/Nuetral interior with a shale top. 6,000 original miles. Had a stage III LS kit put in that included a quit aggressive cam, Weiland intake, cold air induction, injectors, long headers, straight into Corsa exhaust, bigger throttle body, larger mass flow, dual timing chain, and a custom tune. Dyno was 419 to the wheels at 6450.

I live in the Cleveland area and was in the Marine Corps for 5 years. Anyone with connections to any of the above are welcomed for conversations.

Congrats on finding and buying a very low mileage C5 - sounds like it has a lot of very nice mods done to it already. Hope you really enjoy the car.

I did the mods when I got it, except exhaust. Had it two weeks and it was in the shop for some work!

I wanted a coupe actually, but this one was just so nice looking. Going to save up for the removable hardtop!
