[hdkeno]

I Just sold my beloved c-3 beige/bronze 4 speed and just bought a 2000 torch red c-5 (GUY AND REMO made me do it:L)

I pick the car up this Friday.


some specifics 44 k Billy Boat exhaust (never heard of them before but LOVE the sound) K&N cold air induction, one owner 6 speed z06 style dark wheels all options.

So as a new c5 owner I welcome all advice and opinions,thanks in advance.

Well, welcome to the C5 fold....of course the accepted view of a C5 owner is that we are stuck up. :L So if you're going to be "one of us" you'll have to learn how to stick your nose in the air when any other generation Corvette is mentioned.......

No really, we are just a bunch of great guys who love any Corvette!

Ken,

I just read your post in the L81 Registry and totally understand your feelings about getting rid of your 81. Then again, I know how excited you are about the C5...and excited you should be! You'll love it!!

Congratulations.

Hey Ken,

I sold my 87 vette last month and looking to purchase a C5. Been looking on EBay and other sites. Found some put bids on them but nothing yet. Where did you find yours and what kind of condition was it in? I really can't wait(excited) to get in one! Iwould rather go private then dealer but will take either.

Thanks,
Paul

Enjoy it. Beware of internet forums though. They will help you spend a lot of money!
