  • I absolutely love C5's!!! Everytime one passes me, I can't keep my eyes off them
  • @GaryFi
    Just got my first Vette. ‘02 in electron blue metallic w/gray interior. 43,000 miles. It is my retirement/60th birthday present to myself, Love it!
  • Great video. In my humble opinion the C5 is arguably the best value today in a sports car. I treasure my C5. I plan to have it until I die.
  • @KA-te7xk
    Excellent video - you were right on the money with everything. I think most people have slept on the C5. C5's are so stealthy looking & the low stance & body lines are highly underrated. I think good clean low mileage C5's are going to be worth SERIOUS money in the coming years.
  • We’ve had our C5 for over a year. I’m impressed every time I drive it. Very smooth on a good road & a great trip car with plenty of room to pack. If it wasn’t for the C-5 body style, I would not even only Corvette.
  • @vettehottie
    Call me crazy but some day i think this body style will be like the C2 is today 🤠

    Hey man I just got a c5 aswell, 2001 pewter matilic , black soft top , black leather 6speed. Love it .

    I just sold my 92 C4 and bought a 2002 C5 coupe, torch red w/red interior, 6speed with 44K. No HUD, 1SB Preferred Equipment Group, 12 CD player, and Aluminum wheels. Special order by the original owner. I am 2nd owner. No comparison.
  • although I love my C6 Supervette, the C5 is the most comfy to drive out of all the corvettes past and present, easiest to get in and out of, there's tons of aftermarket parts available, and extremely reliable you can put 100k+ miles on them easy

    I just subscribed to this interesting channel👍😸

    Right on, I kept my 2001 C5 convertible even when I bought my 2021 C8 convertible. 80K and not one service visit. Absolutely the best model I have had. The C8 is a totally different animal, like 2 different cars. Both worth keeping. Oh, and best thing is my C5 is manual. A must keep!

    Just sold my '03 which was completely original apart from the tires (the GoodYear Eagle EMT runflats were hard as stone) and tinted windows. It even had the original wiper blades! Loved it, but I got a C6 and didn't have room for both. Not sure what's not to like about the head-up display and fog lights, but your car looks amazing and I love how enthused you are about it. I owned my C5 for 5 years and sold it almost what I bought it for.

    1:00 If you can find a pristine base model, and you have a garage, yes. But the roof will degrade and crackle and spiderweb. Mine did. When I went to Craigslist with mine, the dealership could not figure out why it would not start intermittently after multiple service visits. That said, if you can get a low mileage 2004 Z06, a lot of problems resolved. It's an LS6 motor with more power, a hard top that does not leak water or degrade. 5:48 Oops, this is where I gotta go. You will NOT make 1000 horses with an LS1 without some extreme measures, money, and blowing it up. I have owned 2 of them. Thanks for what started as a plausible idea for a car, and went downhill hard with the old "it's the best because it can be modified for more power" idea. Reality is something very different.
  • @KenchenZ06
    picked up my 04 z06 24 leman last month +😍 .sight unseen pickup from FL ,13 hours drive straight back to PA. great car!!!!!!
  • Very nice looking Corvette I have a 2002 C 5 Corvette love it
  • Great video much to be said about a great car. I've owned 2 c5 vettes: 01 Z06 and currently own 99 coup automatic. I Truly missed the 01 Z06 but was court ordered to sell Dv. nevertheless purchased my 99 c5 and enjoy driving it. I also own a 2 c4 vettes 92 coup and 90 Zr1. The 92 is slowing being restored where Zr1 is parked and being stored and never driven. One thing people forget about the vette, is the power to weight ratio, aero shape. That is the secret to the performance of vette. Add the factor in how much it cost the car because number stunner! I own a 18 Wide body 6spd Hellcat, and I've owned a c7 Z06, and sure the vette is less powered but the way it performs with low horsepower and tq, priceless. I have also owned the 07 Z06 I also missed. Yes, I rest> Great Video Thanks for sharing your experience.
  • I gots me one. A 2001 model with most the trimmings. The one thing that I sure am glad they got right on the C5 is that it does not squeak or rattle one bit. At least mine doesn't. 😁😁
