I mean they never called it a Chevrolet Camaro SLP SS just because SLP did some minor work on it.

Another thing I never understood is why call a car a horse snake to give it a tough name? WTF does that even mean? Is it a hybrid half horse half snake animal? Or, is it a snake with a horse brain? Or a horse with a snake brain? Maybe a snake thats hung like a horse? I dont get it?

Maybe they will make a Dodge Viper Mustang to tell you "man the viper is bad ass, but the Viper Mustang....look out?"

Now Super Snake....Pretty original with the SS as someone pointed out.

Again Im not ragging on the car or what it can do....but its god awful ugly and has a Super Stupid name.
So they call one of there car's a super snake and Gm call's how many of there's a super sport. I'm not ragging the ss but you get my point, I hope.

The SS has been the top of the line model for Chevy cars for decades. Not just Camaros. Maybe you didnt know that.

Chevelle SS
Nova SS
Camaro SS
Impala SS

all old cars to name a few.

Mustang Super Snake...LOL.

A lot differnet to have an SS brand around for decades and put it on top of the line models in your line up then to all of the sudden have a Super Snake...that never existed before.

I know its a bad ass car. Im just saying, its either such a copy off the SS name or they let a 6 year old kid name it.

The Chevrolet Camaro SLP SVT

Super
Variable
Track car.........or something similar. They would get laughed out of town.

Kind of like SLP trying to put Firehawk on the G8.

I guess you have never seen this before then. So I'd say it's been around for decade's.

And like I said GM call's many of there car's Super Sport. With some of the newer one's not being worthy of the title.

Wow a car that never made it to production. Your right, how would I know about that.

Btw Chevy has had the ss in its line up since 1961.




Also for the Dodge Ram. You dodge it then ram it. Just dont ram it if its a quaterback in the NFL because you have a 97% chance of getting a penalty now a days.

Well you really don't understand do you. The car is an aftermarket job by Shelby. That makes it a Shelby Super Snake not a Ford Super Snake. That also means Ford didn't name it so you really have this whole name thing confused.

Top of the line Mustangs were Cobras, Cobras were snakes, Shelby made the car super. Super plus Snake, Super Snake............well that sounds about right for me.

Your damn right Im confused.

A top of the line horse is a snake? Who the FFff came up with that stupid idea?

They also had a mustang stallion. WTF?

So you have a mustang (feral horse) stallion....um non neutered horse?

Glad that didnt last long.

Oh better yet. A mustang is a wild or feral horse...then add the stallion edition and you have...

How so?

Most of my family works or worked for Ford Dealeships for many years.

I just think its a stupid name. Watch out for the Horse Snake!


Again Im sure its a beast of a car, but they couldnt of decided on a more lame duck name. What was wrong with the shelby gt500? Why not just a shelby gt750?

I dunno. LOL but its a silly name. And it looks like someone went crazy in the JC whitney catalog to rice out their car.
