I find cleaning and detailing the C5 the easiest of any Corvette I've ever owned, I actually enjoy it.
Not looking OEM bone stock at all, just added a few aesthetic items to suit my taste. If I had to, I can easily bring it back to original.
Since I've had the cataracts removed, I can now see the Anniversary Red to what it should look like, amazing, what a beautiful color, especially in the sun. A few pics of mine. Looking forward to seeing others here.
