Papaya C5
Rick Kim can rest assured that his beautiful, custom C5 will never go unnoticed. Dripping with layers of brilliant Audi Papaya Orange and rolling on a set of 19x9.5 and 20x11 iForged Classics, it is almost impossible to take your eyes off of. Of course, if you are going to look like a super-car, you better run like one, and for this Rick built a stout LS6 using Crower rods, Diamond pistons, and a stock crank topped with a set of AFR 205cc cylinder heads. A Comp Cams XER lobed 234/238 camshaft helps make 444 rwhp and 392 lb-ft of torque, which sounds awesome through a pair of Kooks long-tube headers and Borla Stinger mufflers. To help put all this power to the ground Rick upgraded to a set of ZO6 leafs and Bilstein shocks, with '06 ZO6 brake calipers bringing everything to a halt in a hurry.
