Is my car pewter or silver?

The tires are the original BFG KDW design, in the stock SS size. BF Goodrich has discontinued that style in our size now, and only sells the KDW2. Mine are from 2005, but only have about 2500 miles on them. The car is rarely driven, only to the occasional car show or nice day to keep it running properly.

I used to start the car 2-3 times every winter, but I haven't done that for the last couple of years. The car sits for 5-6 months straight, then fires up perfectly in the spring (make sure to put Stabil in the gas, and you'll have no issues). I don't pull the battery either, I just put a small 2 amp smart charger on it every couple of months.
Then it probably has an SLP dual/dual or an aftermarket SLP Loudmouth. It may have had the dual/dual stock, you can check the supplemental door jamb sticker on the passenger side to see if there were additional SLP options (it would also then have the "Y2Y" RPO code on the SPID sticker on the driver's door jamb). If any or all of these stickers are missing, you could call SLP with your VIN number and get the build options and date.
The dual/dual was also offered for sale as an aftermarket item from SLP, so even if your car didn't have any extra SLP options, it may still have had the dual/dual installed by someone after the fact.

Unless you're going to drive it a decent distance, or run the engine for an extended period of time to get it hot, I wouldn't start it at all.
