Well, vette #5 has entered my life.
Traded in the 03 EB Z06 (with 28500 HARD miles) for an 05 Silver Coupe. I got 36500 for my trade (tires down to 1/32) and I paid full MSRP sticker @ $55.8K. I ended up getting the Nav system options, etc. I could have got the 1SX + Z51 package and kept the MSRP in the $46K range but I would have to wait 6 weeks.
I wanted it today so I got options.
Being a Z06 faithful, I can't wait to see how it stacks up. I REALLY like the improvements on the interior in terms of molding etc.
More to follow. (VIDEOS)
Enjoy and if you get a chance let us know your impressions to the C5 Z!

I can tell you that I will miss my 03 EB 06 terribly. It was a "fast" one meaning, that even other stock vettes that raced me got beat every time -- every. Even when I switched drivers, the results were opposite (meaning the CAR won).
Someone is going to get a really good one. It was the perfect car with almost zero problems and ridden hard and put away wet. Now, I made sure that maintenance was meticulous (can't skimp on that) and the car dynod at 417 bhp with the only 'mod' - an air filter.
