black is the only way to go! The cars are little lighter than the regular c5 hatch/coupe. They look like a z06 but are just a c5.

Every z06 thought it was just a c5 till they saw my tail lights!

That will be the C5 I want to go for. They arent that expensive. I like that. I like the trunk aspect and it looks more exotic IMO.

I dig my artic white fixed roof coupe. I've owned it for just over a month, and have already done the VARARAM, LS6 MAF, LS6 ported throttle body, LS6 intake, MSD wires and boots, LG motorsport long tubes, into stock modified H-pipe and stock catback. Lowered the car, put on HID's ,...and had it tunned at a local facility we deal with. Most of the parts were given to me... ...which is awesome. Labor doesn't cost me a dime, cause i'm a technician.

Anyhow, before the headers, throttle body, and the tune, the car went 12.58 @ 113.50 mph with a 1.9 60ft. Not to mention placed second in my first ever autocross, and I only competed in half the event. Beating out cars like the LOTUS elise, and others. The only car that beat me was a close to stock Z06, with shaved tires, and a more experienced autocrosser.

The frc is a bad beotch.


Car made 355rwhp and 364rwtq with the stock cat back.
