You know I might be one of the very few that actually likes those Rivs, that generation. I really wanted to grab one and update it, pop out the grill for something cleaner and modern. No mesh wink

The back end on those are cool, very sleek back then.

How much did you get yours for? Planning any visual changes/ additions?

Nice ride!

For the Riv though, it would have to be white/blue/or green not orange. And it would need to be a little more classy.

I like needles (lol), but the digital bars that wrap around, like in ihartmacz Riv, are pretty cool. Reminds me of Night Rider.

I like that too, one large center speedo needle-type with classy font al a Chrysler with digital wrap around bars, and an upper digital HUD display

Here more like this, taken from the Buick Rainier, now put the light markers around it

If I had a black Riv the Night Rider light bar would aready have been installed days after I got the car. I wouldn't have that car by now, the police would have none of that frown

I've always liked that body style...lil soap and water and she'll look as good as new...tru Riviera style!

I saw one today, a nice white one with a tan top, perfect condition. As it drove by I noticed an old guy driving it. Now those are the ones to watch lol

If he keels over or goes to a home it's up for grabs, unless they keep it in a family rolleyes

I had a 1990 dark brown with the padded rear top (w/sunroof). It rode and drove very nice, had very comfortable seats,but didn't have near the power that my 1996 or 98 supercharged.
