Default New to me 2000 Corvette

Hello everyone, I just wanted to say hello to all and introduce my new to me 2000 Corvette. A while back I had a 1996 LT4 that I had that I absolutely loved, but had to let go as I needed the funds. However now I find myself the proud owner of this wonderful 2000 C5 and I could not be more pleased. Since I purchased it I installed some new tires, put on a Volant intake and just got some new seat covers installed and I think they look great. I could not be happier with this wonderful machine.

Here she is in all her glory...

I was an owner of a low mileage C4 (1994 Coupe sold with 9k miles) and after (now) owning a C5 I could NEVER go back to a C4. Well unless it was given to me for free and then I would only use it as a winter beater or in a demolition derby - that’s it! 😁

Congratulations. Beautiful color combination. How do you think the LS1 compares to your 96 LT4?
