As some of you may know by now , I have been selling my mods of SHO due to trading it in ...well the time has come and got my self a new 2015 SS sedan. This thing is a beast. ...
On the other hand will miss the SHO... especially those awd launches ...

Congrats, sweet ride and rare too, from all accounts! Take good care of it :)
Congrats on the new acquisition South Tex,Awesome lookin ride and enjoy the new journey. Z :thumb:
Nice ride. Good pick going with the 2015 as it has forged wheels and the 16s for some reason switched to a poopy cast wheel.
Is it manual or the auto?
Find you an LSA SC and stash it.... They're CHEAP and easy to install on your car. :D

Track mode changes your suspension and steering to performance as well as make your throttle a lot more responsive.
Your traction control is 90% off in "Track Mode"...If you hold the traction control button for 3-5 seconds, all nanny systems will be turned 100% off.
Also, you'll need to go into your "tone" radio function and switch on the "Centerpoint" option which will optimize the sound of the Bose system and utilize the center channel. You'll need to do that in every listening mode...it doesn't make the change universally (example; ipod, radio, satellite, CD, etc.).
Can I ask what you paid? They seem to be really dealing on the 2015s around here right now. So tempting.
They are always dealing on GM....its a car for the masses...generic..looks and feels like a malibu lol...dont care if its 50k it still is infused with GM' philosophy....my sho is the same way so dont be offended

Also, Chevy is importing this vehicle so their profit margin is not as much. This is why they have zero marketing dollars put into the SS...They're trying to make or recoup as much money as possible on a low volume niche vehicle. I got mine for $40K last July, but I had GM credit card points to throw at it.
You should see the 15 Camaro Z/28...The thing stickers at 76K and I've seen them on sale here in WI for $56K. I laugh every time a salesman tells me they're not making any money on the deal

It does look pretty sharp. And I've never been a big fan of Chevy products.
Even with a father-in-law who works for Chevy.
Nice acquistion.

I test drove a 15 this winter. They are nice but what stopped me was that the interior just didn't feel as nice as my sho. I also tested the auto parking and it got alarmingly close enough to side swipe my sho i stomped on the brakes. Ill wait till they get in the 20k range.

That;s why I keep the mustang around, and am making that a dedicated drag car that will see occasional street use, while the SHO is my DD with occasional drag use. I may even get a 94 5.0 mustang because its 5 speed, cheap, carbed, and has a nice paint job. I could use an auto-x mustang
Nice ride!
Great looking ride, we have about 4 in the shop right now for various mods. Very, very nice vehicles.
Give us a shout if you are looking for anything on that one. We tend to venture outside of the Eco market from time to time ;)
Man they just lowered the price on the 2017s, 39k. So tempting
Personally I don't like them.. fast or not..be nice if they gave the sho a more rear drive approach than fwd... like 30/70...

Sup guys, Just a quick update on the SS . Did the Holden badge conversion. Got some sticker tires. Nitto G2s. And a ported LS3 intake and throttle body. Let's see if I can dip it in the 11s before cam.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/6c63fcce9515e8ec3e37dc63d6eaa6ca.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/b80f43b6a4d333b51eb7e324c6a8c93b.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/be569e52ad5742727fb90ce7850888ef.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/d179297a09b523659c28c905808bf30f.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/949bbd10698b54fe8a067bfbd3ed2819.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170512/70bdd2e996f281e90129557afabb47ca.jpg)

Jelly that you can get ported intake/TB :D Intake is plastic? Is it 2 piece like the SHO's? I still think the Badge of confidence is the most powerful mod of all!
Sweet SS SouthtxSHO!!. FWIW we are also upgrading to a Direct Port type setup for Methanol injection. Z ;)
I love the Holden badge conversion. I saw one like that, with the conversion, the last time I was at Livernois, probably a year and a half ago.
