Personally, I think when the C5's have the right exhaust they are the best sounding car out there. They have a unique sound. I came across a very clean one and decided to get it. I have a 2008 Corvette and as far as handling and power goes they are very similar. But, it's the exhaust note that made me want a C5. I have a full exhaust system coming that's identical to my C6, except it's ARH for the headers vs KOOK's. I'll post up progress updates as things happen but parts are taking a very long time to get. I'll get some high quality videos done, there will be a bit of comparison between the C5 and C6. Sounds like the exhaust will be here in a week or two but the Forgeline wheels will not arrive until December.
