Chevrolet SS Review! - Holden and Pontiac in Disguise

[@ThatDudeinBlue]

This car is the best of both worlds! What do you guys think? Stay awesome.

[@jcox1996]

this is my dream car!

[@tylercouture216]

JC Cox me also

[@reed45678]

these things sound so mean with an aftermarket exhaust, it probably helps its a LS

[@MrHowdi]

ThatDudeinBlue the last US SS Commodore was just made a few days ago. They really were the best of 2 worlds. Australia and I will miss them

[@SpcNATlON]

Okay I almost always like his videos but when it cut to the "Why is everything chrome? Everything is chrome in the future!" instant like

[@joshn938]

I actually like all the chrome. It reinforces the "sleeper" status of the car, plus...a lot of the original muscle cars had lots of chrome too. I think it looks good.

[@joshn938]

Aggressive styling or not, the SS is way better to drive than a Charger, has a much nicer interior, and will be way more reliable in the long run. Nobody is buying the SS because Chevy doesn't really promote or advertise it. It appeals to 1% of the market, a driver's car, and not the 99% of people who float along in barges, considering cars simply another appliance they fail to maintain. That, and a lot of buyers are leery of the asking price. But it really is one of the best sport sedans out there, IMO. You don't have to agree. You're biased because you drive a Mopar, and no argument will convince you otherwise, so why bother? They're both great cars.

[@marcboulware6242]

Agreed. I absolutely hate the argument against Chrome. Looks MUCH BETTER THAN ALL BLACK Anything. CHROME 4 LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@randy25rhoads]

Having driven both the AT and MT versions extensively, I can promise that the manual is worth any premium you might have to pay. It’s the one I went with and holy crap is makes me smile every time I drive it.

[@Averna222]

Gm tech here. The automatic parking is made to find spots the car can fit in by looking at other cars, not a completely empty parking lot.

[@ralphl5441]

That makes sense. When I was test driving one of these, and after the car told me to put it in reverse it just kept backing up. It never turned into any spot. My sales person made the comment that that has never happened before. I have owned my 2015 for just over a year and a half and have yet to use this feature lol

[@grumpycarlsworld]

And for parallel roadside parking, not 90º bays.

[@geerstyresoil3136]

​@@grumpycarlsworld actually can do both perpendicular and parallel, you can switch the setting with the self park button. you can also park on the left side on one way streets if you turn on the left turn signal when self park is activated.

[@benisaac9665]

Sadly Holden is leaving Australia, the last model of commodore to come out of Australia is the HSV GTSR W1 with the 6.2L supercharge LS9 engine pushing around 474KW. My favourite car that they came out with was the VL Commodore (1986) with its RB30 engine and the choice for turbo.

[@OhDoggy01]

Just to put this out there, I found the auto park only works when there are cars to park in between. Open parking lots/parallel spots? It practically tells me to do it myself. Also, they are not making a LT1 version. Production has already finished and the last SS is on a boat somewhere in the Pacific. LS3 is all we're getting. Let me know if you want to try the 6 speed manual some time! I have the '17 facelift and I'm in Roswell.

[@maddyxmyelstrom9643]

I was privileged enough to drive a 2015 SS for two weeks while my Subaru was getting some upgrades. When i finally decide to sell my subie, i'm shooting for one of these.

[@Tonyisgaming]

The 6-speed Manual of this is going to appreciate and be a collectors car down the road. Might be a good idea to buy and daily one of these and take good care of it.

[@RomanMeissner]

I love the sleeper aspect of the G8 and the SS. I think the G8 definitely looks more mean though, they kind of did go overboard with the sleeper thing on the SS. I really want to get a G8 one day as a daily. Maybe do a lil build on it but mostly my wagon will be the racecar lol. Great video, David

[@fleeshawn11]

Roman Meissner seems like the g8 so hard to find or all the owners are really keeping the car i see alot of g8's with the v6 for sale but hard to find the gt or gxp

[@fleeshawn11]

Jhon Mcuzi it might be everytime the dealer get 1 its gone the next day the dealer only get like 2 or 3 at a time

[@Gamma052]

As a G8 owner, go with an SS unless you can't afford the price difference. I love mine, but I wish I had an SS.

[@tylerm5915]

+Gamma052 whats your reasoning for that. Because the ss is newer or? Just curious man

[@Gamma052]

Newer, nicer interior, and the LS3. I have the G8 GT with the L76 and I just wish I had the extra liters and an actual LS engine out of the gate, not the DoD L76. I also do prefer the extra sleeper looks of the SS. The G8 does looks mean, but it's kinda a moot point to me. The only people that will appreciate the aggressiveness of the G8 are the same people that are going to notice an SS in traffic. So I'd rather have the newer, comfier, faster in it's stock form SS than the G8. Especially since I bought my G8 in Montana and took it back to Nevada, there was a lot of surface rust, and worn out bushings that I had to deal with. I love my G8 though, no doubt about it. Even when she gets finicky.

[@bobsargeant9540]

I own one. This review is right on the money and gives a great insight into the "fast car market." Why drive Smokey Bait? Drive a mom's shopping cart that shocks the hell out of people.

[@brockventure2833]

As a SS owner I appreciate the review. A few things tho. 1). The self parking system relies on spatial recognition so objects like cars parked will help the sensors better than just painted lines. The car will always recognize a parallel parking spot and park itself given that it's between two cars. 2). The HUD also has a G meter and shifting lights when put into "S" mode and on the M6 cars. 3). The removal of all the chrome (window trim and door handles) ALONG with the Holden conversion is around $2000 4). I have a A6, the Auto only really snaps shifts if you put your foot into it and get up to 6k before shifting. Shifting under redline is "uninspiring" 5). There is no version with a LT motor. The last one that was made was a 2017 black with a LS3 and a manual.

[@bpaul1201awesome]

Really is a hell of a car. I have an 09 G8 GT. I love it and Id love an SS one day. A simple badge swap changes the whole attitude of the car. They didnt intend on selling a 100k+ units a year. Their Target sales goal was 2500-3000 units a year and they sold right in those numbers. These cars are basically a Holden Commodore SSV redline model, pretty much fully loaded and the only options being manual/auto, sunroof, paint, wheels. Fun fact, there have been more Chevy SS sold than Dodge Charger Scatpaks/SRT8 models each year it has been on the market. These cars definitely fall into the "its not whats on the outside, but much more about whats on the inside" saying. These cars are impressive to say the least!

[@SafeHavenAngel]

Chevy SS = Holden Commodore Pontiac G8 = Holden/Vauxhall Monaro All in which are rebranded modified versions of each other throughout the last 16 years. Each time getting Uglier! The Vauxhall VXR8 Was a thing of beauty!

[@blackbean8465]

auto park is for parallel parking inbetween other actual cars

[@MuscleCarLover]

I wish we got everything we gave you. It's a Holden Commodore SS, fitted a bunch of stuff we never got (paddle shifters for example) then shipped it over and all for a much cheaper price than the AUDM one. Same deal with the G8, you had cylinder deactivation when we didn't

[@coopsnz1]

ssv is cheaper than are chevy ss in Usa .38k usd in Australia . But we can buy entry level ss without leather 35k usd

[@coopsnz1]

Btw hsv gets the gadgets, chevy ss got

[@TyBrink]

The Holden badge kit from the GM dealer is only $200 lol take a zero off of your 2 grand.

[@automan224]

Ty Brink but does it also replace the chevy logo on the airbag & the Chevy my link logo on the head unit?

[@leloodallasmultipass]

that logo looks like poo.

[@automan224]

leloodallasmultipass I agree. Unless you live in Australia there's no reason to add them to an American car

[@jacklemon8689]

the ultimate sin :]

[@TyBrink]

automan224 the front and rear badge kit is $200, the airbag is around 500, not sure how much someone charges to reprogram the electronics, and also the wheel center caps are 135. So if you wanted to go all out I guess it's more expensive.

[@thepanduuh]

The thing about this is, it has a REAL LS in it. The G8 GT didn't have a real LS in it... Only the GXP. And the GXP was a rare option (the GXP models still selling for 25k+) with only 1829 made. The GXP was also the only one to get a manual trans. The SS is better in every way (to me) but it's just a REALLY expensive sleeper. If you were a family man with the need for a reliable car that you also wanted to have fun with, this is a no brainer...

[@Harry-fb8em]

Test drove it a couple of months ago and fell in love with it! Looking forward to buying one in the next couple of months...

[@Cobra4993]

I've been wanting one of these for a long time and this video only reinforces that. I totally gotta get one of these some day.

[@gymratt42]

It's a freshened up G8 GXP. A 6spd manual trans 415hp rear drive 4door sedan for low to mid 40's with a sub 4000# weight, brembo brakes and magnetic ride. What's not to like?🏁

[@GiantBrooklynBuffalo]

Thank you for the info on this car...I had no idea it was a Holden until you reviewed it...it was my first time seeing this car ever...I still own my 2009 Pontiac G8 GT Special Edition I bought in California before moving to Japan...where I owned Nissan Sylvia, a Skyline and a Nissan Teana

[@alexs3907]

I seriously have a crush on this car. I wish other people knew just how awesome it is.

[@dylannewby402]

@thatdudeinblue you would flip if you seen the GTS version we have here in Australia, most powerful car ever made here

[@darianmurcott-istead3001]

Dfekt Nsc or so Holden claimed.. Then when tested against it's lower powered rival it's competition made more power in reality lmfao.

[@willm687]

Darian Murcott-Istead I thought the gts w1 is the fastest production car in Aus what beats it

[@gstahle]

I've been eyeballing this car since it came out and I kind of wanted one. After watching this, I kinda really want one. Honestly, it seems like the perfect "dad car"

[@zackacree7124]

Those stripes needa go asap

[@LONELYISLANDisking]

Zachary Acree Agreed!

[@anthonysmith8900]

I don't think so. I was just thinking Chevy should have released this car with rally stripes for a more sporty look like the Charger.

[@jdmnsxr6820]

Anthony Smith LOL it looks like American ricer 🤣🤣🤣. it looks too fat for the racing stripes

[@acer48ace]

I only found out about this car when Hennessey start tuning them. Totally under radar. Love this car.

[@jue_boy4135]

Nice use of Spongebob, even better would have been "It growled at me"

[@TheDutchTexan]

Holding out hope that 3 years from now there will be a low mileage example from an adult owner out there for me. I really like the fact it looks so under the radar, but goes like stink!

[@brianstewart8936]

A g8 GXP was not under 30k. THE 360 hp get was, but in 09 the Charger RT could have up to 372 for under 30k. The SRT8 was priced online with the GXP and also offered more power. Just an FyI

[@shawnprickett4099]

For 2016/17 you can get it in a manual too which makes it even better. Great video David and keep up the awesome work. I really like the SS other than the chrome of course.

[@mikevanamburgh4737]

2015 too.

[@swift_star6515]

But everything chrome in the future!! 🤣😂😂

[@shawnprickett4099]

Mike VanAmburgh when I was just in cars.com and all I saw was 16-17 cars in manual. If I'm not mistaken 2014-2015 were the first model years of it and they only announced them doing a manual in 2015 for the 2016 model year.

[@shawnprickett4099]

Swift _Star yeah that got me laughing to I remember watching that episode to ive seen it so many time lol.

[@TyBrink]

Shawn Prickett 2015 was first year for manual, I know because I have one sitting in my garage.

[@nicaee]

I just bought a nightfall grey SS on Monday. It's amazing! I love it.

[@killeroftheshadows96]

I love my G8. I think it looks a little more aggressive, but still retains the sleeper aspect. I've tried to keep the sleeper aspect intact.

[@omt4293]

It’s funny. The SS is definitely a much better looking car in the interior. The exterior goes to the G8. It’s aggressive and just more sporty. The SS is a bit subtle. Still very nice but the G8 is a head turner.

[@ClownFace1511]

G8's are basically SS Clubsports, you can get them in australia. Everyone has them and turbo them and supercharge them and they are mint as.

[@lenny0347]

ClownFace1511 ss and clubsport are different. holden vs hsv

[@kcwizard72]

G8s are Commodores. Plain and simple.

[@samboofle3715]

G8 and SS are just V8 commodores, clubsports are by HSV and theyre based off commodores

[@samboofle3715]

FalconXE302 if they were commodores they'd be called commodores, theyre a commodore body shell with a different interior, exterior trim and body, spoilers, engine, gearbox, wheels and tyres etc. So they're based off commodores, but they aren't commodores as such or they'd be called commodores and be branded as holdens. The only similarity is they way they look and their size.

[@hotwire96]

These cars are much closer to a SSV Redline than anything else

[@Dalehc-w]

RIP Holden Australia. You built awesome and affordable sports cars for the working middle-class family man.

[@TheMailmanOfSteel]

The self park feature was literally the parking equivalent to peeing right next to someone else when all the other urinals are open, lol.

[@MormonMustang_]

I have a tuned full suspension 12' GT and raced a bolt on G8 a month or so ago. 55 mph punch. I pulled him barely. those things are fast.

[@shinymarshtop2]

Heres to hoping we get a good replacement for the G8 and SS not priced as highly as the SS was

[@PommyDownUnder98]

well seeing as they are both commodores and the commodore is no more, you wont. not a real replacement anyway...

[@spacepotato1804]

Its being replaced by an Opel Insignia and all Australian holden fans are mad about it

[@kevinpraditra]

cts v is probably the closest match since the rwd v8 commodore is going away

[@gymratt42]

Rico Fresh if only it didn't cost nearly 2x the cost of a SS, great car though.

[@coopsnz1]

Its 36000 usd in Australia . Because its built here . No export taxes cost

[@spikejnz]

FYI, the self parking really only works in occupied parking lots, because it uses the proximity sensors to detect vacant spots and measure the gaps. if there are no other cars between which to measure a gap, ain't gonna work.

[@TommyM818]

that system probably uses radar sensors to find spots. NOT cameras. which is probably why it couldnt find a spot. it works the same way for the new mercedes without the 360 degree cameras. you should have used two cars with a spot in the middle. remember, it DOES NOT READ THE WHITE LINES. it actually finds a gap between two hard objects. maybe the chevy one works differently but yeah.

[@FrankUAW862]

Terry Mei I was about to post this. The car was pretty clearly searching for something to park next to. Why the hell would you need auto-park in an empty parking lot anyway?

[@FrankUAW862]

Terry Mei if you can't park in an empty parking lot then you probably shouldn't have your license lol

[@OldManFrank]

I really like the *Chevrolet SS.* A 4-door with a 6.2 LS3 V8! It's a freaking sleeper. I just don't want to finance $45,000 or more.

[@coleG112]

IMO they should have just used the Impala as a body for a high-performance sedan. It looks better, has better body lines, and has a badass legacy following it.

[@gradesixrapidsonly8453]

The reverse parking is designed for parallel parking. At least that is what is on the commercials here in Australia

[@ralphl5441]

It will parallel or park (back) in a standard parking spot.

[@Sevan_UP]

I love both the ss and camaro. The camaro is more of that dreamier car everyone wants, while the ss looks like more of a regular sedan.

[@Kelvinjan]

The park assist looks for a "blank" space that usually next to a car or between two cars. I want to say it detects a blank space, then a car, and is able to estimate where to park. If it's just an empty lot, it's hard for the sensors to know where the spot exactly is without car(s) there.

[@vertigo8765]

The SS is pretty awesome, but I like my G8 more. The SS looks too much like a "family car" while The G8 is a much more aggressive looking sedan.

[@SZ-ZS-]

i agree with a lot of the comments, sleepers are cool, but the ss is way to lowkey, even many car people wont know that it is special, they should have added slightly more agressive features to it

[@chevyboisskevin09]

I have a G8 GT l76 with a DOD delete so basically it's an LS2 and LS3 combined with a stage 3 cam pushing right over 450 horsepower I love it the SS is more newer with better technology on board but I love my G8 an the SS

[@Tanner_Teves]

I have a G8 GT with a 6.6L stroker kit and a bunch of other upgrades and man do I love it. I think the SS will definitely be my next car, basically just a newer G8 with great tech and a true LS motor. But for now, I'm gonna keep enjoying my G8 cause it is sooo much fun

[@SCREAMILLUSION]

Americans miss out on all the performance versions too.. Wow. Like the HSV models.

[@hadez438]

You guys essentially got a base HSV which is a fully specced commodore still, better seats, bimodal exhaust, heads up display, etc. hell you guys got ventilated seats, we only got heated! and paddles were an option on series II. Y’all didn’t really miss much aside from manual at launch lol

[@michaelrandy8764]

I just picked up a '15 SS around 6 months ago, it had the Holden conversion done already, I get asked "Hey what is that?" Nearly every day. On the highway it pulls effortlessly past 100mph and keeps surging forward, at 140+ it feels very stable and composed, the only negative I have about it for daily use is the gas mileage is horrendous.

[@emiliorescigno]

It struggled in sales because it's $50,000. Simple.

[@coopsnz1]

[@willybshreddn3794]

I like the SS, G8, GTO and "Caprice PPV". I'm a JDM fanatic at heart but love Australian muscle cars. The Maloo Ute is my dream car even though my heart belongs to JDM.....go figure.

[@mikevanamburgh4737]

Nice review! The parking feature works silly good for parallel parking and would likely work better if you were parking between two cars in the parking lot. I usually park in the boonies so I haven't tried parking it into a space. Track mode is similar to Perf (haha) mode but lets you hang the tail out a bit more. With Perf and Track, you should've felt a difference in the gas pedal too. Going from Tour to Track is a very noticeable difference in suspension stiffness. The genuine Holden badges are just $250 front and rear but another $550 if you want to swap the airbag. The $2000 you mentioned might have included the exterior black out bits too (front pieces, side vents, and window trim). I would love to see what you think of the manual version. I'm sure someone in your neck of the woods would let you review one!

[@mvanamburgh]

Also, not sure where you got your info about the LT1 version. The last SS has already been built. :(

[@forterierocks]

I looked for months for an SS and could not find one anywhere close to me, looked for about 6 months I ended up buying a CTS-V and so far it's been a great car but if I see an SS for sale near me I will own it.

[@prabal34]

Nice review. The 2016-17 received a slight redesign for the body and dual mode exhaust. Also, try a manual transmission equipped car. It's a much sportier experience. Oh, and 2016-17 comes in a wonderful Blue called Slipstream Blue. It's beautiful!

[@connorbesson488]

sleepybird09 until you look at the rear head lights

[@crazywarriorman]

I love these cars. Unpopular opinion, but I find the car extremely good looking. Also the self parking feature needs plenty of cars around so the sensors on the front and the back can detect them and find an empty spot for it to work. That's why it didn't work well in an empty lot.

[@ReconVette19D]

i knew about this car from forums/youtube but never saw any commercials for it! they didnt advertise it enough. they look sweet and I love my cammed gto!

Chevy decided not to sell the SS in Canada. And I love it. It's my favourite GM vehicle right now. And I want it. But I have to settle for a G8 with a V8 to get close to this.

[@gymratt42]

Ben Kuyt nothing wrong with the good old G8, especially once modded.

[@BenKuyt64]

jeff grabowski I don't even wanna mod it. It was an LS derived engine. Would be a massive step up from my Cruze, lol. Probably tons more fun. Sadly, even the V6 cars go for over 12k up here

[@gymratt42]

Ben Kuyt haha. For a commuter daily driver car cruzes aren't bad at all. I don't have the self control or discipline to not mod my cars. Lol I have a heads cam c6 vette and bought a cts coupe as a daily driver a few yrs back and had to do intake and tune on the cts v6.😀 eventually dumped the cts for a scat pack challenger.

[@motozixxer245]

I believe the parking feature works best in a parking lot with cars. I've tested these before and while theyre not great, it will quickly find a spot in a lot with more cars. The reason for this is that it senses for an empty space.

If you make it out this way David try your best to land a ride in one of these - 2017 HSV GTSR W1 (not out yet). The farewell performance product will be special, possibly more nostalgic than special actually but it'll scoot.

I saw a G8 with Holden Commodore badges idling like a monster in a cage

If could afford one of these I would have one in a heart beat.

you need to come to Australia and do a review on the fpv ford falcons, a F6 turbo and supercharged gt it would be sick you would love them

The auto-parking isn't looking for lines. It's using the proximity sensors to look for a gap in cars. If there are not cars your passing, it'll never tell you to park. Ultimately it's kinda a silly feature but it does work when you know it's limitations.

The color is Some Like It Hot metallic, I have an SS in this color and i love it!

[@Kirakat]

Since the first time I saw a G8, I've had to have it. Now since they've stopped making them, The SS is the new best thing. It's honestly the best car you can buy IMO it's a Camaro, It's a four door, It's an amazing looking car, It's a LS, V8, Best of everything.

It's funny how here in Australia one of the top of the line moldels have black trim and even our standard versions have black trim and the ones that have the chrome trim is like a luxury model like a Calais or HSV senator or GTS but on some of the HSV moldels they have chrome trim but not too much it's done tastefully

It's parallel parking that's it's really good at. That beeping was lane monitoring
