Sounds great!

Get a good deal on it? Now is DEFINITELY the time to buy, with cash in short supply, and spending limited mostly to presents for Christmas...

Got the FSM already?

I'm normally not a fan of regular white cars, but the C5 really looks good in white.

Congrats!



I loved my C5- they are really incredible cars!

While it may be blasphemous to say this... I did drive my C5 in the German winters (hey- it was my only car!) and it did GREAT! In fact- better than many of the German machines.

Congrats Paulie. I was told that my '61 came from Long Island. Are there any Corvette shops around you that I might inquire about my car? Thanks and have fun with your new white C5.

If it does not have run-flats on it (hopefully not), then the first thing I would do is pick-up one of those Green Slime tire kits with a 12V air pump, since you do not have a spare.

So i should pick-up green slime tire kits and a 12v air pump. i was reading the manual and it should be in the rear trunk compartment. But it's not there. Should i go to an auto parts store or to home depot?

Congrats - There's some great looking white Vettes out there!

Those kits only came with the Z06's, IIRC. The coupes and verts had the run-flats and tire pressure sensors. My understanding is, that the "slime" will ruin the tire pressure sensors. If you decide to go the non-run-flat way, and buy the slime kit, just be aware that when you squirt the slime in there, the TPS is likely to quit working...or be inaccurate.

Nice looking roadster there D. I love the wheels.

SO I TOOK HER OUT TODAY FOR A NICE RIDE. DID ABOUT 60 MILES ROUND TRIP. HANDLED LIKE A DREAM. I HAVE TO ADMIT IT- GUYS AND GALS...IT WAS WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!!! MOVING UP TO A C5 WAS AND IS SUCH A PLEASURE. EVERYTHING IS SO NICE ABOUT THE CAR. FROM THE HUD TO THE MEMORY SEATS AND MIRRORS TO COMFORT AND HANDLING. JUST NICE.
