Messy roads do take the fun out of it, but one thing's for sure, you've got a good looking C5.

I'm not a red or chrome guy, but that car does look sharp.
Last year here in Kelowna BC I got my car on the road Feb 18th, this year March 18th, a full month later. Hold on, can't be long now.

good looking, indeed!

The winter mess is why I left Erie, Pa. in '86 nd never looked back. Love 12 mo. vert driving here in SC.
And I was dumb enough to have a boat on Lake Erie-used 3-4 months a year.

Looks sharp! I may pull mine out of hibernation this coming weekend... I hope we get some rain to wash all the salt away this week!

First step is to put the Ariens back in the shed.... WHERE IT BELONGS.

I feel your pain! I'm in central MA and up until last week, I was about ready to pull mine out. Street sweepers had already come out too! Then....... 14.4" of fresh SNOW!!!!

Granted, I plow too, and I made some decent money (bought a few more goodies including a tune ) so it's not all bad.

BTW, I love your front plate filler!!

I don't know where in NJ you live but in my driveway the snow was up to my kneecaps. My driveway is nice and black now but the roads will be a while before my spotless car goes out again. At least I've got an older S-10 with a plow attached to it.

Thanks for all the compliments..I'm extremely envious of you Southerners..I dream of moving to the Carolinas or Florida...However it's not in the cards right now..Once the mortgage is paid off in 15yrs I'm selling and I'll be on my way..Until then I'm stuck in this constant wintery mess...Atlas I'm getting things done though..I just installed the hood and plate filler over the weekend..Today I did a Momo steering wheel and Pioneer stereo upgrade...Hopefully in the next 2 weeks wider rear rims and street slicks...
