Just in case someone doesn't know, the Chevy SS is an Australian made Redline, with US spec ventilated seats and magnetic ride control.
Great article that really speaks to why we are so enthusiastic about this car.
The Comparison: 2003 BMW M5 vs. 2015 Chevrolet SS
With a V8, rear-wheel drive, and stick shift, the Chevy SS is a throwback to the third-gen BMW M5. But is it as good?
"For everything the M5 offers in finesse, though, the SS answers in sheer cojones. Both are absolute dynamite"
"The commonality here is a rounded competence, proof that cars can still feel elemental even through two tons of leather and electronics. Part of that is the healthy, all-motor V8. Part is the rear-drive layout and Q-car wrapper. The crux is a manual gearbox. Whether it's more impressive that BMW perfected this formula or that Chevrolet continues to deliver it in a time when nobody else will, I'm not sure."
"People may not buy cars like this anymore, but they still seep into your soul. Drive one, and you'll know a fast sedan from a sedan that is fast. "
