Default Seeing how the C5 shaped the future

Ran across this article. Very good read, lots of history of our cars. I feel it's worth the time spent reading.

That definitely makes me glad that I got a C5 and not a C4, seems like the C5 was a massive revolution.

Ground-breaking technology in 1994 and still quite impressive even today.

This is why I love my C5Z. It was way ahead of its time. Even today it competes with lots of the newer muscle/sport cars.


Great read
