| Welcome...
Interior is in very good shape! And great price too!
Except why is there no wood grain on the interior? | |

| Congrats on your new Riv, 95's didn't have wood trim. That began in '96. | |

| Wow, that is in great shape! Awesome find, I hope you keep it somewhat ding free in the city, they drive like maniacs there! By the way, there's NOTHING better than a washed, waxed, black Riviera, so if you get the opportunity, have it done. You won't be disappointed! This is from the user 'oldsman105'. He's right over in Queens, and I guess he's your local guy if you need any big help. Click the picture to see his own showroom thread:  | |

| Welcome to the board, Sally.
I too have just purchased a 1995 Riviera, Supercharged.
My riv' doesn't have the woodgrain either, though I'm looking closely at some aftermarket possibilities. | |
