Yea, buy something you'll use. My car has been sitting for the most part of 3 years and by now I figure that I should just wait until the market for them goes up to try and sell it.

You will enjoy a C5 alot. This past weekend I was ripping around in my buddies full exhaust 6-speed '99 FRC. Fun *** car to drive especially in the twisties. My next car will more than likely be a C5 Z06, I feel the C5's and even more so the Z's are alot of car for the money.

BTW, my buddy's FRC got 31mpg coming from Maryland up to Penn State, gotta love those LS motors and 6-speeds.

Even the autos in the C5's with the z51 still get good mileage if you keep your foot out of them.

Its either get a C5 next summer or wait 2 years and get an 05+ C6 Vette... Decisions, decisions

Yeah buddy I'm rocking the 4 banger 03 Eclipse GS! Woot woot! 0-60 in 11 seconds most likely. I might be watching my buddies 00 Camaro SS SLP while hes gone though.

Hell, I have 3 years left of college, I'm considering even waiting those 3 years or so and just buying a used C6 with cash

Don't feel bad. College cars are supposed to suck. My college car was a 1992 Ford Festiva.



I don't think I could come up with a less cool car if I tried. God I'm glad those days are over...
