Welcome! Sweet Ride!
I think that pewter stripes would look awesome, toning it down just a little. Maybe go flat instead of metallic.

Wish to see this in person, pics don't do BRM justice.

I have the same smoked license plate cover as you. Have you been stopped for it? I am a bit concern since I also don't have a front plate on yet.

Smoked/Tinted license plate covers are a bit too risky for me.
Don't need to give the boys in blue any more reasons to stop and chat.

This sig is an older photo that will be updated when I finish with this winter's mods.
Yep, I got stopped. Trooper said because I had no front plate and that smoked cover, it looked like I had no plates.

$25 fine. I got rid of the cover and my front is on with zip ties that I can remove for shows.

$25 thats a bargain...it cost me a bit more a few years back when I had my 06 GTO ( I believe it was $65). BTW...nice car!

How did you get such nice pics in February??

Nick821 · 02-21-2013, 10:21 PM

Feb 1st 2nd day ownership local beach parking lot on the North Shore of Long Island.

Hi Nick821,

That is a gorgeous combination,
I like the silver stripes with the blue and that interior is fantastic!
Best of luck and enjoy this spring and summer with the top down.
I live in Connecticut and my dealer Maritime Motors in Fairfield had a similar one and the first mojave interior I've ever seen but without the stripes.
They are great people to deal with.
Best of luck,
Gio.

Nick821 · 02-22-2013, 11:25 AM

Gio, thanks for the kind words. I bought it at Dave McDermoot Chevy in East Haven. Very happy with the way they treated me.

Gio Bella · 02-22-2013, 12:09 PM

Dave McDermott is top notch and great service too but I'm sure you will want it serviced in Long Island nearer to your home.
Again, best of luck. You will love your car especially with that color combo.

Thanks.
Ticket was commuted to a parking ticket at the DA's discretion. The fine was the Judge's discretion. That was my only offence. It was a busy night and the Judge looked annoyed that I was even there taking up time & space.

I think the top being the same color as the Interior would be really sick

Mojave Interior pictures:
I don't know why the US GM doesn't show but if you go to the Canadian site below and click the last (Mojave) combo you'll get the most accurate pics of the interior
