Beautiful! I love the driveway also. Can't quite have it here since we get a lot of snow.

Harder to explain than actually doing it. No drain, easy install with a toggled on (stock)/off (always open) at your finger tips. You can see the toggle underneath the dash in my interior pic.

The pavers were about the same as concrete per sq ft, but don't crack or stain. They just weather and kind of remind me of old Williamsburg. Not sure how they would work in cold climates but the base is a compacted stone/concrete mix and after 6 years no problems. I think the key is the base with pavers.

Hi neighbor, Beautiful car! I must say that I was hoping the first CR Grand Sport in the Melbourne area would be mine...oh well. I guess I was asking a lot seeing how I don't have one on order yet.

If you do decide to order, shoot me a PM and I'll tell you where I ordered. GM emp price, no dealer fee, free title, free tag transfer. Best deal in FL.

Nice looking. Great with silver wheels, chrome would have been too much bling and taken away from GS body. Good Luck

Very nice. Seems like most of the GS's being purchased right now are red.

I'd like to some white ones.

Great looking car!

When I did my Buyers Tour, one of the workers told me how to do an NPP setup like the one you did. Where did you get the parts?
