it's black on black and it is the complete base model. I'm only 23 so it's all I could afford. I walked into the dealership looking at a C5 and they convinced me they could get me into a brand new one. They first tryed to sell me on an 06 but all they had were convertibles and automatics, those options are too girly for me(no offense) so I waited for the 07 to come out. And I am happy in my 6spd, I really wanted read tho.
