Default Picked up my C5 Vert today :D :D

During my longer lunch break (4 hours) - I went to the bank to withdraw the money to pay for the C5 Vert... Then I drove to the seller which first counted the money (the bank only had enough money in 20's... so - it took some time to count. The seller didn't want a cashiers check - so I had to get cash)
Well - after the financial part was done - we went to the tag agency where we had to wait some time.. Then we left the tag agency and went back to the cars location .. from where I took the C5 and drove her back to my work.. At night I have to pick up my other car which I left in front of the sellers office..

I finally got the best of both worlds... a C3 and a C5 in the garage :D :D :D

Congrats, and welcome to the "can't decide which one to drive today club."

So give us the details on the C5: year, options, color...

You will LOVE the C5.

Right now - I'm not doing any mods.. (spent all my available cash on the car)
but in a few months - I'm thinking in getting the exhaust, air intake and other small bolt on mods done...
