Default My C5

Went out and took some pictures today - need to get back and location hunt and take a few more. All my favorite spots are getting "revitalized" so it seems. One for now, hopefully more to follow this week if I'm motivated.

I like blue. Is that a 50th anniversary?
It looks super clean.

Thanks all. No plans for too many mods. 6500 mi bone stock car. I may put long tubes on it and change the wheels. Maybe a CAI, but that's about it. Not gonna lower it - in WNY it's plenty low as it is. Our roads suck. It is a 50th - 2003 Electron Blue Metallic. Black leather interior w/a MN6, Z51, and HUD.

I love photography..been lazy as of late to go out, but I do moonlight as a photographer for hire if anyone wants pictures from the WNY Area. The teal 91 Camaro on the site below is mine as well. My car portfolio is at

I was a little curious about how the photography turned out so good.

Mine is black and in Fl. It is almost impossible to get a picture of it. I could get my camera ready and wait for an overcast.
