Glad that's just a rendering.

Waaaaaay too generic looking. I feel tired just looking at it.

To be honest guys, I don't know how some of you think it looks like a Charger or Audi. A Charger looks WAY more aggressive than this.

To me it just looks like an improved Impala with OEM Camaro wheels. Atleast that's what would run through my mind if I saw this on the road.

Here is another take.

Bingo, so it's NOT the new SS technically, just what someone is thinking it would look like.

Agree that the grill is terrible on that thing, I like the rest of it. And aside from the wheels I'm not sure where you peeps are seeing Camaro influence?

Ahem, all remaining taxpayer money that is tied up in GM is owned by the treasury. So you need to write your government reps and tell them to tell the treasury to sell that stuff off so we can make our money back.

BUT if they sold it all now we'd lose 15 billion according to this article:

Misleading title is misleading.

So, with the SS, Chevy will have three more or less full-size sedans, correct? The Impala, the Malibu and the SS? Won't the Impala and Malibu kind of steal sales from one another?

FenwickHockey65 · 08-15-2012, 10:38 AM

Impala will be full size competing with Taurus, Avalon, Maxima, etc.

Malibu is midsize competing with Fusion, Camry, Altima, Accord, etc.

SS is kind of an anomaly. Pretty much a niche product. Closest competitor would probably be Charger.

I'm liking it. Could use different rims though...

Rendered SPECULATION.

If it didn't come from GM, take it with a grain of salt.
