Shane, the black " mushroom on the center of the roof halo is the satellite antenna, only '05 cars have them they put them in the side view mirrors after that. The receiver is mounted in a plastic clip on top of the left rear wheel well behind the drivers seat, plenty of good info here to find it. You can change the XM to Sirius too.

Very nice brother, I just pick myself up an 05 today as well. I was receiving alot of hate and you over paid and you didn't get enough for your 12 year old C5 over at the C5 forum...... I'll post my pics in another thead soon. I dont want to steal your glory. Very nice car too. I wish my new one was an automatic too.

Lose the tail lamp louvers.

Nice car. Congratulations. I went C3, C4, C5, and now C6. Never say never, but C7 doesn't grab me yet. Enjoy your new ride.

Thanks everyone! I can now confirm that it is officially mine! Got it yesterday morning and I absolutely love it. It's rides so much smoother and quieter than my C5. I looked like an idiot when I spent two minutes trying to find out where to put the key in to start it...had no idea it was a push start button. Lol
