I'm sitting here watching the Palm Beach auction throughout the day and yesterday and I've seen quite a few C2, C3, C4, and even a couple C6 and C7 but I haven't seen any C5. Any idea why or am I just missing them?

People enjoy them so much they just want to hang on to them.

I know what you mean, I've never seen one on there either since I have been watching those auctions.

Got my tickets for Barrett Jackson at Mohengan Sun in June. Sold out last year and I was running all over the place last minute for tickets. Got them nice and early this year.

Mecum Houston just wrapped up with 3 C5 out of 70 total Vettes in auction.
1 Coupe and 2 convertibles.
All three sold.
