JamesC , very nice car! I too like the silver. I'm located in D.C. If I'm ever passing though maybe I'll stop by and take a look. Hey, maybe we could set up a Kansas gathering. That would be pretty cool!

BTS88IROC,

A gathering would be cool. Last night I was returning from Manhattan and ran across a line of seven or eight 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gens on the road. Maybe we're already missing out on something. By the way, here in Belleville, we sponsor a car show every summer. We usually have between 300 and 500 cars--not bad for a town of 2200 or so. Lots of fun. We'd love having you.

By the way, has anyone ever seen another silver IROC?

JamesC

JamesC,

Maybe we are already missing out on something. Who knows. When is the show usually? Sounds like a pretty good turnout for such a small town. I would love to go to it. Hopefully by then my car will be repainted!

I don't believe I have ever seen another silver IROC. Anyone else?

The show is June 16. Should you be interested, e-mail me your name and address, and I'll see that you receive a flyer which provides all the details.

James, yes there have been two running around here in the Atlanta area. I've got a picture of one of them at dusk while the owner was doing grocery shopping! Can't wait to get a scanner, I've got so many pictures to share on this MB!

when you think of it, ive only seen 1 silver iroc in person,

my biatch neighbor has one, with an ugly red interior. pretty solid car, but that guy will report you for ANYTHING you do that he doesnt like. u think of, hes reported me for it. i report him back, cops come, neiborly love an hes the reason im under a million dollar lawsuit for a crash, long story. almost makes me want to smash his iroc, but then that would be one less silver one. not good.
