| Hi! I was snooping around online for some info on my 96 Riviera, and came across this site and just had to sign up! Been looking for a place I can find anwers to questions I have about my car.
I've always like the looks of the Rivieras, especially the 95+. Never thought I'd own one until I wrecked my Firebird and needed a new car. I've always been a Pontiac man (still am in my heart of hearts) so I was looking for a GTP because I really wanted a supercharged 3800. Couldn't find one in my price range, but I did see my Riv and jumped on it! It's a Burgundy (?) metallic color, red/maroon leather with a wood grain dash from door to door.
I'm looking to be able to mod it, and find specific tech info and troubleshooting for the Riv, since everywhere else I've looked comes up short.
Well, there's my intro! I'm more of a lurker, but I'll probably read posts everyday. And interject with an opinion or a bad joke every now and then. Thanks! | |

| Welcome... this is definately the site for you! There are some great gearheads on here that are always willing to help. The search function is awsome if you have any mod qustions try typing them in the field and see if it hasn't already been a topic. This site is a gold mine for Rivs or even most 3800 powered GM cars in general.  | |
