Tires are next on my agenda. I'm hoping the tranny will hold till next fall.


BTW, Chris said that the car is very mellow and extremely streetable, just like I wanted. He said it could easily be a daily driver. I can't wait to pick her up tomorrow!!!!

There's a performance section?? Is it under the car care products section??


Once I get the car back, I'll post a full review on how the heads and cam feel in the C5 tech or perf. section.

Wish I could, my brother's mother-in-law is celebrating her 90th birthday. If she were senile......I could tell her I was there, but she has a better memory than I do (which really isn't saying too much) Maybe I could squeeze cheesequake in.
