The one in NC is definitely not show car worthy.

Yeah, guy had no interest in talking about it I never even got to talk to the sales manager about it. Guy was being a real jerk for some reason. Thank you for confirming my instinct on that one on NC! I’m sure I’ll find one though.

Never been a fan of the Hockey & hood stripe combo, my last ABM had hockey & hood stripe combo which got removed within a couple of weeks after I got the car.

I’m with Pyroguy, I like the silver rally’s. Here’s a pic that kind of contrasts them. Sorry you got screwed, that car is killer. I know you’ll find one, it took me a year or two of off and on searching to find mine with 52K at the time. I haven’t done anything to mine in a little over a year. Been spending most of my wrenching time and money on my 72 K20. BLUE’s title mod is almost here. Should have it paid for by the end of summer. Once it’s paid for I’m going to start modding more.
Outside of 3 road trips (2 to Vegas and 1 to California) in the last year I haven’t driven but about 350-400 miles.

Isn’t the grey and black interior stupid rare in the ABM 2SS’S? For some reason I was thinking they were something like the high singles or teens as far as production numbers. I’ve only seen one with the grey interior and it does look really good, I like it better than the black interior in mine.

By the way, the car with the black wheels belongs to a friend, he’s on the FB page... 9K-ish miles at the time of this picture in early ‘20.

Yeah it just happens, I found another that is just as nice so I'll see how goes. Gray interior on these cars in general seems like a rarity IMO. Most cars I see have Black interior, I know I've seen a few ABM's over the years with Beige/Black combo. First ABM I ever saw at a dealership back in 2009 was a fully loaded 2SS/RS w/ sunroof, silver rally stripes and had the Beige interior, absolutely loved it. Love those pics at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, both cars look amazing at the track! Ever go to the Holly LSx Fest out there?

[Aqua Blue RS/SS]

Thanks, the track days in Vegas are a real blast. I havent been to LSx fest out there yet. It’s on my list for sure. I think if I can swing it (we’ve got a baby due in august) I’m going to go to Camaro con in oct. we were supposed to go last year but it obviously got cancelled. I’m pretty pumped to hit the road course when we do make it over there.

I really liked the one beige and black I saw in person. It’s a nice contrast.

ABM I had transferred from MO came in on Friday, checked it out last night, & picking up tonight, can’t wait! Look forward to posting some pics up!

[BluePhoenix]

Couple of pics when I got home last night. Gotta get rid of the front plate bracket. Car is completely stock besides a Flowmaster American Thunder Catback. Can’t wait to start modding!

Thanks QmaroSS! Hoping we’ll all get to hit some car shows at some point this year! I know I’m gonna try to get a few Markets at Shrewsbury cruise nights in, but I hear Hunt Valley Cars & Coffee is running unsanctioned without Will the guy who runs it and the official show signage but still people just showing up. I was tempted to just go there for fun to see what was there last weekend but didn’t.

[Aqua Blue RS/SS]

Heck yea, congrats! I’m sure it feels awesome to have one in the driveway again, what you gonna start the mods with?

Yes it is awesome, first mods, I went for searching out the discontinued OEM stuff. Picked up a OEM Ground Effects kit from a dealer that actually had a set in stock, 3pc Blade Spoiler, and a Heritage Grill which I know Phastek carries. I’m pretty excited because I was really nervous I wasn’t gonna find an OEM Ground Effects kit at all.

Oh come on you don't like the license plate bracket. It really makes your car be noticed and it sure stands out.

Nice score! I actually have a friend that has a complete new in box, GM gloss black gfx kit he’s contemplating offering me. If he does I’m jumping on that right away. I can’t wait to see how you build it up. I loved your old car.
