Man do I have terrible luck
 
I put a post a while back saying I was getting my dads 2000 coupe for graduation. Well he gave me the keys for christmas made me search the house for them...He would do that. So anyways me and him go take our first ride and the weld on the flange that holds the muffler in place broke off. So now I am looking to upgrade the exhaust since its happened twice :D....Just Ugh so depressing I finally have the car now and I cant even drive it :willy:

Boo hoo, you get a free C5 and you're whining! :D








J/K,

Yeah, especially about not being able to drive it.

Good luck with getting it fixed soon. :cheers:

Things do happen but at least you got a nice ride. Put some aftermarket catbacks on there and enjoy the new sound.

Enjoy that new vette. You will love the pace cars :thumbs:

Good excuse to upgrade your exhaust. Don't sweat it my flange broke off too when I first got mine.

Great present..... but I wouldn't call anything bad luck if somebody floated me a vette for a gift.

Enjoy the new ride!
