![]() ![]() Hot V-8 Chevrolet SS sedan not coming to Canada - The Globe and Mail No manual transmission for the US doesn't seem so bad now. At least you guys get the freaking car. Last edited by Mike; 02-21-2013 at 09:34 PM. |

![]() Not really surprising. It's not intended to be a high volume product; they aren't going to put it through all the Canada emissions testing and cost associated with it for the few sales they'd get.
GTO wasn't available in Canada either.

![]() It wasn't? Huh.
Actually, they only made 6 G8 GXP's for Canada, lol. I have seen a few G8 GT's though. |

![]() Dear god that thing is ugly. >.< So dodge rebradges the neon with the dart name and now it looks like they rebadged an impala design with the ss logo. And of course ford fed the Taurus a bacon fat and mountian dew diet and it gained 4000lbs. XD

![]() Looks like an 06-14 Impala (Classic) refresh. The 2014 Impala is a MUCH better looking car than the SS.

![]() Wait, what?
The next gen impala looks like an older accord to me. Personally, I think this SS looks a bit like an updated commodore.
