Good video. The C5 is still a bang for the buck when it comes to performance cars.

I would never bash any Corvette, but 3 years ago (late 2022) I decided to get my 3rd Vette after not having one for 10 years (had a C5 & a C6, automatics, but not at same time), so I found a new 2022 C8 near me BUT just did not enjoy the test drive. Then soon after I stumbled on an '03 AE manual coupe with just 6K miles and L-O-V-E-D that test drive, she's a keeper!

Didn't address ECBM stuff, but overall it's decent.
