ps great colletion
S5 is a beautiful car to look at. Our is a 2010 cabriolet, metallic black with red/black sport interior. I need to take some photos of it. I enjoy driving it as a commuter type car, the wife loves it since it is a convertible. The AWD makes it kind of fun in sweeping corners. Car feels too heavy though, could use another 100 hp and 100 ft-lbs to make it perfect. Interior and build quality are top-notch. Compared to cars like the Viper, Z06, CTS-V though, it doesn't bring nearly the level of driver involvement or fun. The other cars are quick enough to create some fear, which I enjoy

Yes, stained concrete. I gave it a try, not really a fan. I'll be doing industrial tiles soon. The stain scratches too easily, causes thin areas to form.

Good catch, I forgot about that one. I guess you're modern car-color taste is less adventurous than the old muscle. Great cars !

That is a Z06, not a ZR1. Viper is the quickest of the bunch, it is supercharged. Around 700 rwhp for now.
