NBM is an awesome color, too bad they only made it for such a short time! Welcome to C5 world - you won't regret it! Miles and miles of smiles!

The C6 is an awesome car, but then so is the C5!!!!

Let's see some pics and here what the fella before you did, and then what you have planned. Half the fun is putting mods on them to increase the speed you can get to the store to buy more!

Are you aware JDPlays has copied your post to the C6 section? Just thought you should know he has also stated he did it just to get a reaction out of the C6 folks.

I like all the colors but the Navy Blue is my pick personally. I saved over half $$$ of what it would have cost to ride the C6 Vert so I have now a few $$$ for mods. I'm going to enjoy my C5 for years to come. Looking forward to be part of your group in the future and THANK YOU all for the warm reception!
