Now the Ruby is a nice color, until I decided on a C5, the Rudy would have been my first choice. The C5 is an awsome machine.

I just got my first Vette at 54 (last weekend). Enjoy the ride! You might try Mid America or Corvette America for the cover you are looking for. It isn't a crisis, it is an experience and a great one at that. As was told to me in the last few days, welcome to the C5 family.

The previous owner was so nice and already installed this mod. It did last night. My grandson just had to have me "take off the lid" and go for a drive. It was a little chilly but the smile on his face was worth it. Actually, most of the snow is gone (in Denver) and it will be close to 60 here...

When I get a little time I am going to go back over the thread that you put in about resizing pictures. Thanks for all of your support! Once more I just have to say what a great group of people you all are.

I will give that a try. Thanks

They are small. This is the first time that I have posted any pictures, I am lucky they made it at all. ;)

I would think that the "coolness" factor would go way down for those of us that must wear glasses to have our glasses on and our sunglasses on the top of our head.:L

Here you go.

I know that all caps mean that you are shouting and I am. I got my Vette today. I didn't have time to do pictures when I got it home but I will get some tomorrow and post them. I got a navy blue 2000 convertible, it has about 36,000 miles and it is so beautiful I can't get over it. It has a...

You need to add this to your thread on engine compartments. This is a beauty!

To each their own but I don't like the look except on a race course, maybe.

That would solve one problem. Now if I could only get my wife to agree to that idea.

With any luck it will be "Finally". So far, I just have not found the right one but I have not really been looking very long, 54 years :L is all. Like Jistari said I really can't make a bad choice either Coupe, Vert or FRC. But that is the real problem they are all so nice that I can't make up...

Welcome to CAC, this is a great bunch of people. I am just up the road a ways in Arvada. I may be in Colorado Springs this weekend to look at a C5. Patrick, did you pick the route for the caravan? That will be a nice drive, I have done that drive, at least to Pine Junction many times. From Pine...

I promise I will sweep up the worms as soon as I have my Vette (which ever one I get). Any body want to go fishing when I take care of the worms? :L

I drove the C5 yesterday, what a car! We ended up a little further apart on the price then I could justify at this point but I am going to keep looking and I will be getting a C5. I was very inpressed by the quietness of the car with the top up. The ride and handling is terrific, no wonder all...

I have an appointment on Monday to go and look at a '99 Torch Red/Light Oak convertible with 31k. It will be the first Corvette that I have actually looked at with the idea of buying. Thanks to all of you for your helpful comments. I will let you all know when I actually purchase my dream and I...

I think I am finally going to get a Corvette and stop just dreaming about it. I had thought orginally that I would get a C4 but my wife has said that I should get something newer. Who am I to argue? :L Back to the title of this thread: what are the pro's and con's of C5 convertibles? I am...

"Buy It Now" has been around for awhile on eBay, I have used it in the past. Basically, it is a way to avoid being outbid. If you want it at that price, you buy it and don't have to wait for the auction to end.

Steve, I really feel for you a couple of years ago I lost an '85 Coupe to a sniper. I had the highest bid from the beginning of the auction and was within 5 seconds of fulfulling my dream of owning a Corvette. I was out bid by an amount that was below the increment that the auction stated. I was...
