As I said, the C5 is a great handling car. I don't think the stock version handles as well as the Boxster but it handles wonderfully just the same. Remember the Lemans C5 is not the street C5. Anyway, I think you and I are in agreement.

And yes, the LS engine is a world class marvel, has been for some time now. Even better is the current LS engine.

for several years now. Its not just a horsepower monster. During the 24 HLM the French crowds line up near the C5 just to hear the engines start up. I always find it funny how in Europe many people who I've met think the Corvette is exotic while here in America it has a certain stigma.
