Mine is the nicest C5 because it's in my driveway, I have the key and I have the title.

lighten up, it's a very long time running joke. Just like the whole manual/automatic thing. Do I really think an auto c5 is a waste of a car? Well I mean, yes, but, uh.... where was I going with this?

(For your benefit that was also a joke, I have no issues with auto c5's)

This whole thread is opinion, that is his.

Nothing "wrong" about an opinion someone has, just because its not the same view you have does not make it wrong on something so subjective as this thread. I myself do not like bsm's.

There is no one answer.

ps, is diotic the right word?

I've got bsm and have never once thought they looked bad .. maybe it's because my car is black and they aren't as visible, but I have no plans to remove them

Its not the best by a long long shot....But I might get extra points for having to import, at great expense, all the mods to make it mine. As you can imagine, zero C5 mod parts here in New Zealand.

I'm falling in love with C5's all over again

Had two of them, sold both ...thought id get into something else but its been over 6 months and still nothing

Was looking into vipers, Challengers, C6's, Camaros and now I'm back looking at C5's again

I think they are the best bargain to be had when it comes down to it

Revolvers car is one of the best looking I agree, but the wheels are a little too small for my taste

Out of curiosity what size wheels are you into?

I personally love the c5 but I'm getting bored with mine...been thinking of stepping up to a c6 z06 or zr1. But In messaging another member who went from c5z to c6 zr1 he said it was very underwhelming

It's not that they look bad....they just look better without them.

I've always liked the 2nd gen gts vipers, if I ever get the chance I'll have a blue one with white stripes.
