Re: GM chit chat thread
Mines a curvy S. bought by the other half (Kithat) new in 2001 and then acquired by me about 4 years ago when I bought kitkat a Raptor 1000.
Was originally pearl lively yellow but is now Shimmerin green. Showing about 35k miles now. In my defence I've not been off the road for those 3 years as I had a Benelli Tornado for a little while Here it is And yes the wheels are still mismatched like that, still trying to decide what colour to paint them!

Re: GM chit chat thread
Darker than kwak green, that picture was taken in the shade so doesn't do it justice really.
Been the last few years with having a baby (now 3 1/2) and busy lately with a mk2 xr2!
