That interior is super nice. Chevy did a really nice job on the interior. I really like the color. It reminds me of the S10 I had in electric blue.

What's also interesting is the 6-speed manual does not get hit with the $1,300.00 gas guzzler tax like the auto does, however C&D got worse gas mileage in the manual. The manual offers a "skip shift" feature that improves mileage by a 1-2 mpgs. There are guys running sub 13 sec 1/4s with the manuals but it's all within margin of error.

Is the SS loaded up?  HIDs, LEDs, remote start, heated steering wheel, cooled seats, etc?

As some may know, I sold my SHO a few days ago. Here is my new 2015 "Perfect Blue" Chevy SS with 415hp, 6-speed manual, magnetic ride, 3.70 gear, sun roof, full sized spare (an actual spare forged rim w/ summer tire)

Hey Mike -- wanna race ? ? ? ? ? ? 

Make sure you install a camera in the dash so you can see the backend of my SHO LOL

but really.... wanna hit up great lakes with me and by buddies?

Sure...and I'm still waiting for the friggin dealership to send me my GoPro. Actually, I'm starting to get a little pissed off about it . I have my intake and catchcan arriving today.

 

[IHeartGroceries]

I sure do like these. I skipped over them, because their price was unnegotiable, and...ahem...GM.

Awesome cars though. Really, more what I was looking for. More of a sports car appeal, instead of the sport lux sedan, like the SHO.

Heres a quick video of the stock exhaust on start up. If someone could help me embed the video, that would be cool.

Thanks Z. It's a good time to be an automotive enthusiast. There's a ton of fast cars to choose from almost any manufacturer.

Just installed my new Rotofab cold air intake

[SHOdded]

That looks GREAT!  How long to install?

 

[BiGMaC]

Looks sweet!

 

[SHO-Time]

Thanks fellas. It took me 25-30 mins for the install. Pretty straight forward. I wanted to make sure everything was sealed and tightened. The RotoFab intake is a really nice quality piece and definitely produces a throaty sound.
