Just put on her new speed lingerie- mirrors, hood and nose! Last week she got her LG Pro Longtubes and custom tune. I'm on a roll.

OP- your car looks great. Love the C5 in white.
I did my undergraduate work at Ball State and have family members in and around Muncie, IN, now live just outside Cincinnati.
