Default i know it's crazy...

but i've decided buy another C5. i've only had my very first C5 (machine silver metalic convertible mn6) for little over a month and a half and i absolutely dig everything about it!!!

i want a "Commemorative ED Z06". yeah the lemans blue with the strips i thought was very ugly. i don't know what had gotten to me...now it looks awesome and some!

dear dealers on the forum, please make me an offer that i can't refuse!

No, it's not crazy, but I suspect that you are. Just a little.

Why am I not surprised?

Didn't you just post about not being able to launch a C5 M6 without stalling out?

And another one about being scared at triple-digit speeds?

It would appear you can't handle a basic C5 so now you want a Z06 for the color and stripes?

Why don't you just get an A4, 273, have it painted and add stripes? You might be more comfortable in handling that.

Had 04 coupe for 3 months and traded for z16. Five thousand dollar mistake. Divide that by number of years will have the car and fun factor of z16 and only a fool would not do it. If you put 5000.00 in your coupe it will run with a z06. But you will still have a coupe not a z06. Sorry, I see you have a vert.
