Looks identical to mine, minus the few interior additions I have.
I have orange peel on my paint, too. 
It'll have to stay until I need a new paintjob.
Widow, it has an awesome shine to it. Glad you're okay after seeing pics of your old car. Did that Caprice pull out in front of you or something?

Yea the driver of that sweet '94 Caprice claims he never even saw me before making a sudden left turn into a Dunkin' Donuts.
I got 10,600 for it though, which is pretty decent considering it was a v6.
As for the orange peel, is that a consistent problem with the 05+s? My '03 barely had any (although that paint had binding issues)

If you look at the paint up close it looks like the outside layer(skin) of an orange...hence why they call it orange peel. My gf's 06 f150 is the same way.

That pic really shows it. See how the paint isn't flat. It's a result of uneven spray patterns at the factory in most cases, or perhaps the sprayers weren't aimed at a 90 degree angle to the surface like they should be...
