Default Finally!

Sup fellas&ladies 🙋🏿‍♂️
​​​​​​2001 Pewter w/ 45k mi for $16.9k, included typical mods. Lowered stock bolts, black rotiform 19in front & rear, Callaway Honker intake, Corsa exhaust, evolution x seats Corbeau. The seats were what got me!
originally wanted a stock black on black that was going for $16k with 18k mi in Georgia but something about the check has to clear before they release the car. no thanks

Welcome and congrats on the purchase of your C5. I had a '00 pewter coupe for many years - it is a great color for the C5 and I actually wish GM would bring that color back.
