Greetings,
Before the quarantine set in I picked up a 2004 C5 with 72k miles. Its the first manual and V8 vehicle I've owned and has been a blast. In the few months we've had it there's been 3k miles put on it just from wanting to get out of the house. This site has already been extremely helpful with information on fixing the common issues and planning upgrades for track days. I'm hopeful to be able to add some value to the site as well.
