    Question: C5 More Ergonomic Friendly than Predecessors?

    Should be ok. I am 6'2" and a bit bigger than you. I do ok getting in and out. I do not have telescoping wheel either. Of course any vehicle that is that low to the ground takes a different approach to getting in and out. At first it's awkward, but in no time you're getting in and out fine...

    Mufflers for 02

    I agree, go to youtube. I thought the sound was pretty comperable to real life. Myself I went with Borla Stingers. They don't really have "mufflers" just glass packs, but aren't too loud. Right about where I wanted them to be. Tank

Still just a real good looking car! :thumb I shudder at what the price is going to hit at...

    Question: Replace Tires - By Age?

    I have found that the GYF1's tend to dryrot a bit early. I couldn't say in years what the duration is, but I'd have to guess there is no significant problems, other than dry rot. Oddly, the dry rot I've seen in these tires seem to start between the read blocks and run around the circumfrence of...
