The basic CRC package starts around $65,000. That's additional to the cost of the car.

For $65,000 you could buy a pretty nice C2 and still have the C5 in the garage.

I agree totally

Each car has it's own character and the styling does not blend well between the two. Besides, you lose the real "cachet" of the C1 handling, rougher ride, water leaks and noise
