SS/G8 Article from way back in 2013

I could not stand the Chevy logo also its a very simple fix GM. sells a Holden kit right from the dealer Front grill with Holden badge and rear badge and 4 Holden center caps. Some of us even went and replaced air bag with Holden one and some cases people even updated their radio and DIC with Holden or HSV start up screen. So there is no trace of Chevy anywhere.

What you rather be a douche bag and own a BMW? FK that.. I hate BMWs and I hate most of their owners.. nothing but douche nozzles!

A bmw or dudge charger is about it...I would take an SS over either of those any day of the week, but I love bowties to begin with.

I have nothing against the Bow tie .. I owned many Chevy's and Pontiac's ..I just cannot stand the size of the bow-tie they now put on most of their vehicles. They used to be much smaller and different colors.

I can't disagree with that. It's hard to find the bowtie on my corvette, but my Chevy Cruze has a huge ass bow tie on it. It would look better if they would tone it down a bit on the SS and some of their other cars.

yes its the size and color more then anything else have nothing against the brand

Im not bashing the ss for it is a performance sedan like the g8 just give big brother credit for without the rise and fall of pontiac / g8 the ss possibly would not exist . The euro market is to large for gm to cut the performance sedan all together but they do fall short on all wheel drive performance sedan come on gm get it together, or even price them close to pontiac pricing . The ss is only a dream if you make less 40k a year with kid's and a house payment, that is why i got mine in 2/09 rear performance, great looking, awesome price at 28k from 34k and oh yea 5 year 100k mile warr that the wife quickly used up with everyday drive to work ,and lead foot she loves the car except it's hunger for rubber!!!?? 150k now the car is still solid and im ready to garage it and get her an suv she has to have !!!?? Srry guy's off topic but i am a g8 guy there it is . LATER AND DRIVE FAST

Believe me man .. I know exactly where your coming from. I felt the same way with my G8 and still do. I was recently laid off ..not making a 1/3 of what I was originally making.
As for the SS ..The price is great when you see what your getting for the money. But in order for me to get one I would need to sell my 09 G8 w/ only 29k on her in which I dont want to do. I was hoping to keep it and have its Chevy brother next to it in the garage but who knows what next year will bring.

As for the SS I was very reluctant to except it when it came out in 14. Thats until I recently driven one

[roman1978]

yea the test drive really blows you away
