Hey all, Don't know if this needs to be in the Autocross section but... I'm planning on going to the SCCA PDE (performance driving experience) at Pocono in June 2005. One of the tech requirements is that if you have a passenger seat with a folding back (don't all Vettes?) is must be either...

:Steer Hi everyone, Just wanted to get some thoughts on this topic. I have an expectatin of having a long term relationship (marriage huh?:L ) with my 98 Vette. And to that point, what do you think mods performed to a C5 may do to the value of the vette in say 15 years or so? I seem to...
