My 50th Anniversary C5 purchase

Hey all!!

Firstly, thanks for all the positive feedback on my purchase. I really feel like I made the right decision now.

Also, a huge public thank-you to BOWTIE GUY for that tip on Insurance. You saved me a bundle!!! (Baker Insurance rocks!)

I now await the the big Canadian spring thaw so I can drive it. More importantly, I await the cleaning of our roads of all the friggin' stones they scatter here in the winter.

Thanks again!!

Enamel,
I'm going to merge this with the original thread, so that everyone who posted in that thread will be sure to see your response.

The C5 is a great machine. You made a great decision, I'm sure you studied the choices. Just get it out and enjoy it.

Life should be played forward, not in reverse.

Good move!!

For the money you did the right thing and the C5 is one hell of a car. The difference that you saved was in Canadian dollars so down here in US dollars you must have saved $15 super. Only kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck

Hey Enamel - Don't worry about waiting on the spring thaw to drive that Vette.

We guys down here in the States will be more than happy to keep it 'limbered
up' until you're ready to drive it. (Umm, how we gonna get down here?)

Good luck and many happy miles!

Congratulations!!!

Congrats on your purchase of an '03 Anniversary Edition! 57 miles?!?! That's fantastic!!! Like the man said, you're to be applauded for saving her from being a total "garage queen".

JMO but I like the C5 better than the C6 anyway. Don't mean to offend any of our fine members that have purchased a C6; I know they're proud and I'm happy for anyone that can have their dream Corvette. But the C6 just doesn't do anything for me. I think the C5 is a better looking car, and the AE is the best of the bunch. My next Corvette will likely be a low mileage AE convertible.

Enjoy the ride - I know you're anxious for Spring.:W

You did good! I was looking at (and even had wife's blessing) an 05 Lemons Blue Coupe with selective ride control, mn6, and 1sb. Then I saw an 04 Torch Red Coupe with just under 11K miles on it. Got it for 38K and a 1000.00 rebate from dealer so came out to 37000. It took a day to think about it and decided I really liked the looks of the 04 much BETTER and saved lots of $$$$. I have no regrets!

Got it at Casey Chevrolet. It has Polished wheels, 1sb(hud, memory etc) transparent top, mn6. The original owner put on a Borla Cat Back, Loyds mats, and chrome exhasust plate. Don't know if there are any more mods or not. Will be putting on CAGS Eliminator on Monday. That is all I plan on doing. We should get together some day.

Sounds like you got a great deal.... are u going to put the CAGS plug on yourself?...as soon as it warms up we can get together and compare Vettes:L ...they are basically the same...
