So, I was able to get a bit up close and personal with the Chevrolet SS today...

...and my previously positive opinion of the car has grown even more positive.

It looks good in person. It's design has a bit of a subtle aggression to it.

The interior is predictably roomy and comfortable.

For what you get with the car, the $46k price tag isn't overly expensive.

Plus, it's essentially the last great piece of Australian engineering to come to America.

Was it a '15 model? We get a manual trans and MR shocks this year. Which kidney should I sell?

it's the american (Australian) version of the e39 m5. I'm waiting for these cars in the used market because they tick all of the jalop requirements: manual, rwd, and v8.

It was a '14, so no MR or manual transmission. That just means it'll be even better when the '15s do arrive.

Not for me, but whatever floats your boat.

It's a rare bird.

manual + RWD + 400+ hp V8 + four doors

Just like my car, except my mine revs past 8000!

Spent 10 days with one awhile back courtesy of GM. Love the sleeper status of this car and it's unique interior layout compared to other Chevys. Will be featuring it next week on "The Monday Minute", some good canyon carving got done with this thing let me tell ya.
