Frank's ride is truly sanitary. More views, Frank.

I particularly like his HRE's. I had similar wheels - Weld Racing EVOs - before I bought the CCWs. Here's a picture.

Sometimes I wish I'd kept them, so I could swap back and forth as the spirit moved me.

The body is great the way it is. What I have done is made some improvements over what GM did. LS6 intake, LS6 mass flow sensor, 189 thermostat, Duel cone air intake, tune, PRT's cat- backs.

This is my 98. Not a whole lot of mods yet but so far I've added Cray Hawk wheels and Hankook tires, Xspower exhaust, tinted windows 15 percent, Halo led tail lights, also added led turn signals and reverse lights,C7 Carbon ZR1carbon fiber wing, (waiting on C5R lip front splitter to arrive) upgraded radio and speakers, ported and machined throttle body and Callaway Honker CAI. Going to start modding the engine soon!

Wow...just some stunning C5's in this thread!

Here's my '97 Coupe - after the Grand Sport project. Well over 50 different mods done. Some bigger than others, but all pretty subtle, which is what I was going for...

Thanks!
My '04 Callaway equipped coupe is out there, somewhere. The dealership I traded it to for my C7 sold it to another dealer, or so I was told. I've been keeping touch in this section hoping it would show up by way of the new owner. I've got all the stock items for it. Wasn't about to give it to the dealership when they called 2 days after the transaction asking about it. I told them to give the new owner my phone number and we'd talk.
That car gave me a lot of good memories. Hope it's doing the same for whoever has it now.
