Ill say that my GXP and my SS are 2 of the best, most underrated cars that GM has ever built... while saying its a shame they arent hugely popular with the masses, I think that just makes them more special to me... Im glad I dont see one every 9 feet, and Im glad that people still confuse the SS with a Malibu or the G8 with the G6... watching jaws drop makes me laugh.
My dad used to own a 2015 In that Some like it hot red metallic, Honestly one of his and my favorite cars he ever owned, and I still miss it to this day.
Please make a comparison review of drivers car between Ford fusion 1.6 manual vs Mazda 6 manual and the manual competition please,your reviews are simply awesome,you guys speaking of cars seems legitimate and genuine and superb ly unbiased,
This car, along with many others, would look much better with the black polished alloy rims, like I've got on my VF SS Series II Commodore.... R.I.P Commodore 🇦🇺
Actually, the Chevrolet SS in the guise of the Holden GTS is much better than the MB. See Autocar Magazine with the Comparison of the Vauxhall VXR8=Holden HSV GTS tested against the Mercedes, BMW and Jaguar. Now my friends in USA, you know what you have got - the best performance sedan in the World.
Cool new video concept! The car on the other hand just looks so boring imo. It's missing something, idk. Maybe a hood bulg or more flared fenders, something.
Am I the only one who thinks it sounds like it has a broken exhaust or something? It looks decent for a Chevy but either my speakers are going out or something is going on with the audio of this vid...just saying.
No you're not. My quieter Chevvy Gen4 V8,powering my Holden SSV Redline with manual transmission sounds a lot better, it barks and growls like a wild beast, when the "go pedal" is floored. I think that my 6 litre engine and manual transmission is actually quicker and more fuel efficient than the Chevvy SS automatic. The Decipherer hopes that Adelaide send Chevvy SS with manual transmission to you good guys soon. In terms of fuel consumption, the vehicle above cruising on the open road uses only 8.2 litres per 100 km (34MPG). Mr Obama - drop the gas guzzler tag!!! for the new Chevvy Manual Cars....why? because they burn less fuel than Asian SUV's. Reset CAFE.....then DRIVE ON!! - in style
Don't get me WRONG, I LOVE MY AMG 45 MERCEDES BENZ AND I SURE AS HELL WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THE NEW IMPALA SS WITH THE LS INGINE BUT SINCE GAS WAS practically $ 5.00 A GALLON AT THE TIME I JUST MADE A LEFT TURN AND PURCHASED THE NEW MERCEDES-BENZ AMG 45 FOUR DOOR SEDAN . BUT I STILL LOVE THE NEW IMPALA SS ,NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THAT PERSONAL FEELING I HAVE FOR THE IMPALA SS .JJM IN MONTGOMERY ALABAMA SENT
Nonsense, see the real test against the equivalent Vauxhall VXR8 ( manufactured in Australia with your Chevrolet SS and our Holden HSV GTS) AUTOCAR MAGAZINE compared Merc C63 AMG, BMW M5, Jag XKR and the Vauxhall VXR8 was proclaimed the best performance sedan in the World.
Sorry Nico, I have been waiting for your reply. The VW / Auto Union RS6 Avant was the other car that I didn't mention in my reply. However, it was the other car in the AUTOCAR test group that the Vauxhall VXR8 / Holden HSV GTS was just plainly better. I cannot determine what your actual motoring knowledge is, since you are not aware of Autocar Magazine - probably Europe's best read. Nor your mechanical skills - the Decipherer is dual qualified as a Top Mechanic and Mechanical Engineer. Forget the badges and concentrate on what you are buying!! The Holden / Chevrolet won at Daytona this year, and similarly it has had more victories at Bathurst and in the gruelling Aussie V8 Supercar race series against the MB C63, and the new V8, BMW are not game to compete? So here you have it. In Australia we can buy the excellent Holden SSV Redline Manual - I did and as an active investor I was pleased to open the trunk and find $ 100,000 saving in cold hard cash. Gee!! in a little while with a bit of thought I can turn that sum into more than 3 times the price of the European so called performance car. Das Auto? no just getting a good car at the right price made Aussie / Yankie tough. Crikey! I nearly forgot to reply about the marvellous Cadillac. Purely luxury / sports sedan to better Europes best. But the Holden has been built to race, and that's what it has done precisely over the last 50 years. By the way, I tow a boat, a big boat with my Holden - just some of the treats of driving a performance with cash to spare. GAMEOVER!!Nico Blanchard
Hey Nico, seeing that you really like have a gander (look) at Holden VF Ute's Vs The Nurburgring World record lap. In Aussie lingo, a Ute is a Utility Vehicle = Yankee derivative "Pick Up Truck" This ute is a Holden SSV Redline Pick Up and it was quicker than a E46 M3 BMW...and the Holden is a truck!! The driver is Rob Trubiani, Holden test driver who assisted to develop the special FE3 suspension under the Holden / Chevrolet. I once raced cars, but these days I find real excitement watching great drivers like Rob, and other USA drivers like Jim Mero, and Randy Pobst. If Jim & Randy think that they have driven a tough circuit...come to Bathurst Australia in early October, and let Craig Lowndes and Rob Trubiani show them why this 600 mile race reduces some drivers to tears. After years of driving European & Japanese Performance Cars....there is no substitute - Hold..en to your Chevrolet SS. Rip down to your Chevrolet Dealer and drive the SS.. with a real race pedigree; not just a badge!!
Howdy Mr Cool...or maybe Lukewarm! Do you really know what a muscle car really is? The best" modern version" of what a muscle car should be is the Chevrolet SS. This is not a car to satisfy folks at the local Diner in Hills Billyville; it is a car which appeals to all sophisticated people in the World Market. The VF Commodore SSV Redline which the Chevrolet was based on, was benchmarked against the best from Europe including Mercedes Benz and BMW during the Billion Dollars that GM spent on the development. Recently the Holden Commodore HSV GTS was tested by Autocar Magazine alongside the Mercedes C63, BMW M5, and Jaguar XKR - The Holden GTS equipped with the Corvette LFA Engine, 6 speed manual transmission, magnetic ride suspension and torque vectoring was judged the best performance sedan ( Muscle Car in your lingo) in the World. Therefore if you are game, rip down to your Chevrolet Dealer and drive the Worlds best muscle car, you will buy it - it is that good!!!. By the way, I have the pleasure of driving my Holden SSV Redline Manual every day; It is a complete sense of occasion

Underrated comment 💯💯💯💯💯
still think this is probably the nicest car GM has put out in the last few years. Id get one if I had that money.
I agree with you !00% ! ! !
Yay glad you like Australian made car, known as a Holden Commodore in Australia, it's one of the car icons for many years in the past
+Lachlan Turner It's weird as fuck looking at a Holden Commodore is America with chevy badges on it haha
Let's not forget the Cadillac CTS Vsport.
Us Aussies do make a nice looking / sounding car.
Not anymore
Looks Great.. Sounds superb.. Goes fantastic !! Go Holden !!!
My dad used to own a 2015 In that Some like it hot red metallic, Honestly one of his and my favorite cars he ever owned, and I still miss it to this day.
I would love to be able to test drive this car. It's hugely underrated just because it doesn't look like an ugly-ass Dodge Charger
All the other videos made me believe this car's exhaust spat out dubstep and rock. Thank you for the clarification.
definition of a sleeper
ss turned out to be the better drivers car... hey i would definitely go for it over style.
Bad ass chevy SS getting one when I graduate forsure 👌🏼
Have one and I raced a charger in it, beat his ass with his gf in the car. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
@@Newt_Newt haha love it!
Very cool video. The engine sounds great.
Please make a comparison review of drivers car between Ford fusion 1.6 manual vs Mazda 6 manual and the manual competition please,your reviews are simply awesome,you guys speaking of cars seems legitimate and genuine and superb ly unbiased,
she does sound good indeed
My current car is an 06 impala SS, got the 5.3 so my next car is gonna be this bad Boi without a doubt.
man I love that car !! and this vid !!!!!!!!!!
You guys need to do a video review on the 2014 Ford Taurus SHO, and o yea the vid was great
No interior driving shots?
It could look so much better I think. The power train under the hood is beautiful though.
Please review the 2014 scion tc
Could we say that the jaguar f-type svr is a chevrolet ss junior?
Because it sounds exactly the same!
I'll be honest, I like American cars, but I'm not a American car guy. But Chevy has some awesome looking cars. I won't lie.
I really like this car and believe it would be fun to mod. Which motor does the car in the video have?
I belive it's a Ls3 corvette engine
This car, along with many others, would look much better with the black polished alloy rims, like I've got on my VF SS Series II Commodore....
R.I.P Commodore 🇦🇺
That was sick malibu lol
I would have sworn you were driving a Mercedes E63 AMG from the sound of it!
Kind of thinking the same thing. This is what I'd image true M cars are. It would be nice to have a more performance trans. But this will do.
Actually, the Chevrolet SS in the guise of the Holden GTS is much better than the MB. See Autocar Magazine with the Comparison of the Vauxhall VXR8=Holden HSV GTS tested against the Mercedes, BMW and Jaguar. Now my friends in USA, you know what you have got - the best performance sedan in the World.
Same engineers designed this car.
I see GM is up to their old re-badging tricks again. Just like the Pontiac G8, the Chevy SS is a Holden Commodore.
Well they couldn't just call it a Pontiac G8
Try to fix a camera on the nose while you attacking corners would be great
review a 2013 Genesis coupe 3.8 pahlease
Still looks like a mega version of the Cavalier.
Very few drive them the way they were meant to be driven.
Cool new video concept! The car on the other hand just looks so boring imo. It's missing something, idk. Maybe a hood bulg or more flared fenders, something.
manual transmission

It's a Holden Commodore...
I don't see anything attractive here. This is about the most plain vanilla car I have ever seen.
if plain vanilla has a ls3 in it im getting seconds
Z Vette
What does an LS3 have to do with the car's looks? I am talking looks, period.
ndyt For some people it's the heart that counts. Singing that sweet V8
ndyt people who buy cars ONLY for looks are complete and total poseurs.
Vernon Price
Just like people that only buy a car for its motor ;)
I think it just looks like an over rated Malibu
+Keith Kendall I was talking about the looks not the performance
I think the profile looks very good, the nose not too bad. the back is where I think the designers just gave up :)
M5 A6 C class all better

Ok so what about the audi rs6 ? Or the Cadillac CTS V?
I don't know who did that review, but however they did that is OUT of this world
