I love the older Vettes but, the C5s are more confertable. More mods also.

63 with both tops. 327 4 speed.
69 with both tops. 427 4 speed - a/c, ps, pb, pw
04 torch red coupe. 350 LS1 auto - few options.

The C5 is definitely the best!

I've only owned 1... 2002 C5Z

I won't own any more.... I plan to drive this car until I become too old to drive it. Into 6 years of ownership and it still feels new.

I feel so naive asking this, but what is a C5Z? Is is it shorthand for Z06? ZR1? 'Cause I know it's not for zzzzzzzzzzz.

One, 2000 Pewter Coupe. When I bought it I was looking for another Trans-Am, but let my brother talk me into a Vette. It's cool, and I do enjoy it.
