Finally pulled the trigger on what I hope is the right C2 for me.

Cut the deal today! Now got to get the car hauler booked!

It'd be a very long week for me because I would not be able to sleep till that baby was home. Nice!

7 hour drive.....leaving Thursday evening, checking car out Friday morning and heading back to ATL hopefully by noon. Got my fingers crossed everything is as described. Not afraid to walk away if it is not.

I have no idea how I will act by having a C2 with A/C.

Congrats, that silver on blue really works. See if you can have them reposition the pass side wiper blade over the driver's side. the way they have it is wrong and if they catch can tear up your wiper motor gears. Just a thought. Enjoy

Pretty car . . . while I like the wheels, it appears from several of the photos that they are simply too wide for this application. Use caution on the way home!

Very nice looking car... love the look!

If you go through Knoxville Friday or Saturday, stop in Loudon, about 30 minutes south and less than a mile off of I-75.

They do look like 8 inch wide wheels, but it also looks like it has had the wheel wells modded for them to clear, almost looks like small flares to me in the pic
