Default New from Orlando.

Hey everybody. My name's Rich and I live in the Orlando area. I currently drive a 2000 Prelude but I am planning on getting a C5 Z06 when I finish school. I signed up here so I can learn as much as I can.

haha. I was in the same boat. I have a Prelude, Modded the **** out of it (Full CFT Precision Turbo build 409whp/320tq) then I graduated law school and bought a C5 vette. I love it! It is more balanced and comfortable than the Prelude IMO, but I will always love my Prelude so I don't see myself selling it. Plus it makes a great sleeper. I'm in Miami studying for the Bar Exam right now, but my life is in Orlando. Cheers to the Prelude/Vette owners club all two of us, hahaha.

Welcome to both of the Orlando Dudes. There are some good Vette shops in the Orlando area for you to visit and hang out at.

Nice to meet some Florida guys. I am transferring to UCF in the fall study economics and hopefully enter law school after my bachelors. Anyways congrats on buying your C5. I had one, they are awesome, and as you mentioned well balanced cars.
