I own a 2015 Chevy SS. Bought it new back in the day. Currently there are 16,000 miles on the odometer. No mods have been added to the car. It has Chevy badges. There were only 12,000 of these cars produced, in years 2014 thru 2017. The car listed for $47,500 new. Currently the car carries a strong wholesale book. Last week I was offered $60,000 for the SS, I passed. The car continues to increase in value. It has become a Chevy cult legend. It seems like every day someone is complimenting the car and asking about the history. If you pull into a Chevy dealership, the car will draw a crowd. Just a great ride.

[@Swole55_]

Sheeeeeesh. I gotta tell you and I am sure you already know, you have a gem!!!! I am no place to tell what to do with that car but I would hold on to it and add something new to the garage. This car is truly an investment. I may peak out someday but for now she is something special.

Hey, I’m the G8 you met last week at Menards! Great review, what a great example of an SS! It’s too bad they never sold well but it’s nice they finally get the recognition they deserve! They had a supercharged version over in Australia, if only they brought THAT over here….

They were never meant to sell in quantity due to CAFE. When we were buying components for the prototype build of the clusters we were given figures to work to which turned out to be the quantity they sold.

I have a 2015, and I love this car. For an 8 year old car, it does not drive or feel like it at all. I put some miles on it also, Trying to save the miles now but its awesome. They didn't make that many of them. it should be worth some money down the road i would think.

[@StevenCityChevy-Fusion]

Great review! This guy definitely knows the car really well. It's one of the best reviews of the SS! Like he said, not only did the 2016-17 have the magnetic ride that can be adjusted with a mode dial, but it also changed the bi-modal exhaust note and changed the steering and accelerator settings. Three settings, Touring, Sport, and Performance. The Sport and Performance mode opens up the other two of the four exhaust tips to give it the more aggresive sound. There's also a lesser known/"secret" "Track" mode that can be accessed. This mode activates a launch setting and detunes the traction control some to allow more agressive driving and sliding around. These are things that most top sports cars probably have, but adds to what makes the SS sedan so unique and unexpected if you see one on the road... Again, great review. The guy knows this car!

[@Swole55_]

First of all, thank you very much. Secondly, I never knew they added that feature to the SS 🤯. It is always a pleasure to hang out with my buddy and, my goodness, the facts he knows about these car in impressive. Thanks again! Please subscribe and lock in to see whats next. 🤝🏾

great video man. ive been looking at this car ever since it came out. my current prediciment is getting one of these, or looking at a new 2023 WRX. finding an SS near 45k, while the WRX is 35kish and i can take that extra 10k into upgrade parts. choices choices...

[@Swole55_]

Oh now that is a tough one. I guess for me, it would come down to 1st - if you truly need the AWD in your area. 2nd - how do you feel about hanging out at the gas pumps,. 3rd - how far do you plan on going with mods and you budget. Lastly is what exhaust note would you prefer most? For me both cars has fun factors that would be good with flipping a coin. In the end for me I would daily the WRX up here in the midwest, the SS would be a summer daily that would see rain but never snow. #lbm #dba

[@Swole55_]

I think dealerships are aware of the rarity and what they can get for them. Especially in this market. Big V8s are under attack by EV and those of us that are standing firm will have to pay a premium to have what we want. It sucks but it is and will be our new norm. 🤷🏽‍♂️

HSV (Holden Special Vehicles) took this base and built basically a street registered race car-the GTSR and the GTSR W1.... 680hp,race suspension and steering,larger wheels and brakes,much improved aero and Pirelli PZ Aero tyres off the showroom floor. Find a review of them.They will blow your mind as to what a practical,large sedan can be. GM had the basis of one of the best sleeper sedans ever,and dropped the ball.

I purchased a MY2015 SSV Redline manual at the end of February. It has a 6 litre L77 engine and 65,000 km on the clock when I got it. This vehicle went into a performance shop on the Gold Coast in Australia. What I wanted was better performance without being a police magnet. a) Brembos and braided brake lines all round. b) Lowered approximately 25 mm and so the car looked 'balanced' on the road. For some reason, the stock version sits lower in the rear. c) Mild Cam upgrade d) 1" 3/4 ceramic coated headers / 100 cell cats / full 2.5 inch stainless steel Manta system / 4 new O2 sensors e) Ported and Polished heads. f) New lifters / buckets / DOD delete etc. g) OTR / Mafless tune h) Continental Max Contacts MC6 (staggered) Dyno readings were 317 RWKW @ 208 Kph and 644 nm Torque @178 Kph The total cost was Australian 70k on the road. I also own a 2008 VE SS manual with an L98 engine that I purchased in 2010 with 40,000 km on the clock. It is stock except for being lowered 35 mm. It has done a lot of low altitude flying including across Australia via the Nullarbor Plain and given me very little trouble. That VE now has 187 000 km on the clock and been fantastic to drive in regional Australia. There are a lot of people who knock the VE /VF Commodores. The trick is to keep about 50 kg to 100 kg over the rear axle. With a few tweaks they are both a bloody great car to drive.

[@Swole55_]

SHEEEEEEEESH!!!! Brother, you have a couple of awesome cars!!!!! I would love to own or drive either of those 2. I do have a dream of owning an SSV someday. I would be when I have a much bigger garage cause once I get it it would never leave my possession. #lbm #dba

Maybe you’re referring to the original version of this car - the VE Commodore (Pontiac G8). That version did have more aggressive styling and the front wheel guards were more pumped.

[@imserious2187]

I want one but the prices aren't dropping

[@Swole55_]

Same here. I believe the price of this car will be up for a long time. With it being discontinued and the demise of the V8 pricing may even rise. #dba #lbm

Not a bad move. There are tons of options for both. However chevy does not have the same stigma. I stay go for it. Keep me posted on your next move or let me know if you some ideas. #dba #lbm

so....if you could get one with 132k miles on it for 20k.....would you?

[@Swole55_]

Depends. I would recommend an Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) and if the car wasnt beat up and just driven..I would do it. Now a days buying a car with over 100k isnt a negative. Car are being build to do over 250K without major issue if properly maintained.

As someone whos owns one. theres a reason they werent advertised. The amount of collapsed lifters in this generation of engine is silly. Fixing it is not cheap. 12k in myself and ill maybe have it back before christmas if im lucky at this point? If a lifter collapses, it will trigger the trunnion needle bearings jail break. its just a matter of WHEN. The more you know. 2 year nightmare because i didnt know and my gf drove it to whatever back in 2021

[@Swole55_]

Wooooow! I never knew that about that car. You are the first to mention that problem. Definitely something that should be noted. Ive had comment from all around the worlds on this car. Sheesh. Do you know the cause? #lbm #dba

[@ICNVDE]

It's a nice car but I feel the real hidden gem is the V8 pontiac G8

[@Swole55_]

Some would think the G8 is the gem of the two. Both the SS and the G8 have Holden roots; however, I believe the SS brings more luxury or refined feeling, a solid platform, and a power plant awaiting more power options. Now the G8 and no slouch it would be the GM to the SS's Cadillac feel. I'll pick the SS all day and twice on Sundays.

[@ICNVDE]

@@Swole55_ True but the G8 just seems more rare and has the look of a M series BMW. Its something about that car that hits different and has that unique rare presence that stands out among the SSs like its the white whale or white lion

[@Swole55_]

@@ICNVDE Oh I strongly agree that G8 stands out more. But I think that is just it. The SS is unassuming and is compared to M Serice BMWs. Sitting in that car was like putting on noise canceling headphones and the door was still open!!! I think the SS is a much more solid car.

[@marchudson880]

Are yall serious? Don’t get me wrong I am an avid fan of this car but the interior is made up of off the shelf parts. The feel is very similar to a Chevy traverse.

[@Swole55_]

Wasnt talking about the buttons and nobs, the interior feel far more superior to other GMs. #dba #lbm

I'd love to get one but it's hard to imagine paying $50k+ for a car that looks like a Malibu.

I can truly respect that. But when you just get in and close the door. You are going to know you are NOT in just a Malibu. And you havent even started the car yet. This is a special car that will hold its value until fuel no long exist. #dba #lbm
