At 63 years old. I driver a Corvette. I put my wife in the SS. So when we travel alot we drive it. Being a retired racecar driver. I can have a blast in the mountains. And my wife loves it. There is zero reason to down it at all. No reason to make it look aggressive. When I eat punks lunch. And they have zero clue what it is.

I bought my 2015 SS new in April 2016 from a Chevy dealer in Austin Tx. I had previously owned a G8 GT, so I was well aware of what the SS was. I paid $38K for it. At that price it was a huge bargain. A couple of years later I put a Whipple supercharger on it. Then headers. Likely over 700hp at the crank. ECU tune and tranny tune...all in for $55K total. No comparable car at that cost will do what my SS does: Take me to work comfortably and reliably every day and blow the doors off most cars that cost 2x what I have in my SS. I could probably sell it for $50K or more today with 57K miles. This knucklehead is unfairly nitpicking what is a great sports sedan.

I love your content but as an SS owner myself I never understand these kind of videos. All the vehicles you mentioned are designed in America. The SS is an Australian car. The one thing I agree with is the mylink and stereo leave a lot to be desired. Mine is a manual so have no experience with the auto. The other cars you mentioned with the higher HP are well over the 48k MSRP of the SS. Take the price difference and put that in the SS and you will have a 4 door that will sh*t on the others. The real draw of the SS for most is the fact that it’s a V8 RWD sedan available in manual. The only car of its kind on the planet at that time. Sleeper status was also a plus. Not to mention low volume numbers so you don’t see two dozen a day like Camaros, mustangs and dodges.

The G8 and SS are based off the Holden VE and VF commodore. The engine options you mentioned from factory... LSA and LS9 are on the HSV VF. The SS and GXP were generally better optioned and cheaper than their Australian equivalent. If you think the SS was expensive, almost double the price from new to get the HSVs.

I've had a '17 Slipstream Blue auto for four years. bought blacked out fog light brackets, side vents and spoiler. Black on blue is pretty subtle compared to white, red or silver. Never pulled trigger on blacked out grill frame or wheels. That would be the most I'd do. ALL black effect on red would look real good. Not sure it works on blue but I'm glad I de-chromed in some key spots.

Half of the cars you mentioned doesn't compete with this car. You got to realize this is a $50,000 bargain machine. If you had supercharger.And more performance what's the point of the CTS-V. With everything you're wanting with this car it would have been a $85,000 machine. The car is an amazing machine that wasn't even supposed to make it to the states I'm glad I own one. If you really define what it competes with nothing come close to the price.

I agree. If anything I think sales suffered for the SS because it came as a loaded trim level only, squeezing out the buyers that would have loved this as a low - mid $30k car at time of production. Had they done it without mag ride and with a lower grade interior I think a lot more could have been sold had Holden production not ended. I’m thrilled to finally own a 16 manual now, but if it had come out with a lower trim level like the G8 had the “GT” and “GXP” the SS could have been a bigger success.

Camaros, mustangs, challengers, and chargers are all a dime a dozen. You see them everywhere. Even upgraded, fast ones are boring (in my opinion) because of this. The Chevy ss is a true sleeper. It shouldn’t race all these supercharged cars cause it’s not in the same class. It’s N/A. Sure, it deserves a turbo or supercharger, but it works well without it. It’s a great dd with the exception of fuel economy. It should do wayyyyy better. My only gripe about my car. If I wanted a flashy head-turner , I’d go get one. This car is a breed of its own. Rare and unadultered, it compares to no other car on the road. It’s a class of its own.

Mustangs were ugly for over a decade but the new 18+ models look good. Drove a 2019 bullit and it was a blast. But none of them look as good as the SS with rims and dropped a little bit. Also who cares about the sound system? It’s more than good enough I’m sure. Never understood why people want to bump loud music with a lot of bass. Who cares.

All I hear is; "waaa my daddy bought me this car when I wanted a Camaro 😢." It's not supposed to look aggressive. It's a sleeper. That gen of MyLink does suck though.

Gm doesn’t make cars to compete with there faster and more performance models. You literally said it was geared as a family performance sedan why would that have Aero? Dads buy these cars to relive there younger days. I do agree with you that they are way over priced because you can buy something better for the price.

Are American cars sill seen as less quality than German and Asian? I have an 07 Chrysler and it’s electrical problems are a huge expensive headache. My dad also had a 00 300M that had electrical issues too. I’ve had a 97 Mitsubishi with a sketchy past that had some engine issues but the Toyota echo (great gas efficient but easily flipped little car) and Scion TC were great.

Probably should have had your father ( the actual owner) do this video. Your mind set is that of a much younger adult that voices opinions of younger guys relating to the size of the rear wing, the design of those ( in my opinion) nice looking wheels, the bass output of the stock sound system, etc. The SS isn't a vehicle that would appeal to your demographic anyway. It's like having an adult in their 50s comment on a fancy little 4 cylinder Civic or VW hatch back.

It’s not a bad trans. It’s strong for what it is. But it’s bad in comparison to the 8l90s and 10l90s in the newer Camaros and corvettes. The 6l90 in the 2nd gen V’s and the 5th gen ZL1s is noticeable more capable too

Probably a bit high for a 2014. I wouldn’t buy a 2014 no 4 wheel brembos no magnetic ride, no manual option if that was something important. With the car market the way it is now vehicles are bringing stupid money so you may have to pay a premium to get what you want. That being said I owned 3 SS’s and they are great cars. The auto vs the manual is no comparison. The manual is a 1000x more enjoyable to drive than the auto. Good luck.

My dude. Australia car scene lover here . How is it fair comparing the SS to 2 door coupes? And the ctsv no cheaper either. Is $30kAUD more. Walkinshaw performance here gets you from 304kw to 497kw for $20kAUD, so still cheaper then ctsv. You obvi have a hardon for cars that only come with two seats, two doors. Too much bias bro

This is a dumb biased video. The Chevy SS is awesome. No downsides. You get power, speed, drivability, SPACE FOR THE FAMILY, the ENGINE IS EASY TO WORK ON- LS3 parts available everywhere. You arent getting that out of an Impala SS or Malibu SS. Chevy SS can destroy Corvette's with a good Cam upgrade and tune.
