Can the SS be upgraded ? not sure GM will even try on this one they are so far behind on 4 door sedans.

SS sedan with LSA will probably be their answer since starting in 2015 the mag ride will be standard on it and they will offer a manual transmission. I do agree though their sedan section is always a little behind the competition.

If FI makes it into the SS I bet it will be the LT4, not the LSA

An LT4 in an SS with a manual and Mag ride? yes please.

There is no SS offered in Canada so that is one reason that GM is way behind on this, GM does not have a horse in this race.

I disagree because the car it is based off.

Holden has said it will end production of the Commodore in 2016.

Your opinion. I love the new Dodge interiors across the board. The interior is the only thing I don't like about my Camaro.

and it (SS) will then be produced on a new platform in the US. The current SS platform is old.

Heat is on the CTS-V

I just realized that I will get dusted by a four door charger now. It was bad enough knowing that the Challenger could clean my clock.

The Z06 specs are out. It is rated at 650/650 from a 6.2L engine with a 5yr/100k mile warranty. A 7-speed manual with rev-matching or an 8-speed auto. It has 4 modes as well to adjust the car for different needs. There is no track times or 0-60's to compare.

It will be interesting to see Ford's reaction.

Not concerned with HP numbers. I was wondering about 0-60, 1/4 mile, and top speed info. No doubt the Z06 will trounce it on the track but I would be interested in all the rest.

Neither am I, just sharing what we know so far. Yea should be fun. I am sure GM is laughing in their seats at all this.
