I don't plan on doing heavy mods to it, as it's my daily driver and I want it to remain completely reliable, plus I don't need to have any down time while getting mods done! I'll just stick to very basic stuff.

Where are you buying it from? I hope you don't tell me you're going to buy it from U Can Sales. I was supposed to buy a black 97 from them a month ago but the guy took forever to bring the car over the border (it is from Florida originally)

Sounds like a good one Matt! You'll have to bring it out to St.Thomas for some drag racing sometime. The Toronto f-body guys will be going there on Sept 11 and Oct 16, and I plan on joining them.

I was lucky that the original owner of my C5 took such good care of the black finish that you cannot see a difference in the shade of the paint under the BSM. He must've never left the car parked out in the sun at all.
