Hello All

Traded both our C5s for a new '06 Machine Silver/Ebony/Black MN6 Z51 convertible over the weekend - what a car! Ironically, we ordered the car from a local dealer back on 11/01, but, using the "Find A Vehicle" feature on www.corvette.com, we located "almost" the identical car in the showroom at a dealer 30 miles away from the original dealer. The original bought the car from them and we bought the car from the dealer. We got great money for our C5s as well.

Maybe he should've traded his 2 C5's for 4 Camry's.

Congrats. I also found the exact car I ordered at a nearby dealer using corvette.com. My order was on constraint hold for six weeks before I cancelled the damn order and bought off the lot.
