... that we took delivery of our 2003 50th Anniversary Convertible at the Corvette Museum and drove off into the sunset with the top down (really!). Grace still looks and feels relatively new, but here's the score so far:
28,181 miles one trip back and forth across the United States two small chips (probably from somewhere in the California desert) countless smiles from my wife and myself (along with a whole new set of great people)  What a wonderful car! There have been a few niggling problems (she likes to eat batteries, for example), but overall this C5 has exceeded our wildest expectations. Below are just a few pictures from the last five years:     |

Nice color combo. What's the deal with the batteries? Narrowed it down? I know there are some electrical gremlins with the C5s.

I remember drooling over a new one just like it on the showroom floor while I had my wife's Jeep in for service (it was a Chevy/Jeep dealer). Very pretty car, glad to hear it's been good to you!

Matthew, It's some combination of: 1) The fact that it's parked for 4 months out of every year. 2) The additional current draw of the F55 magnetic ride (trick) suspension. 3) Some other current draw. What I have to do is begin to narrow down #3 - thanks for the good wishes. |
