Drove the first '15 at the dealer the day it came off the truck, and loved it at first sight/drive - especially because it was a 6-speed manual! Kept going round and round, but as GM supplier, there were better deals on other cars, but no other car like it - maybe at ATS-V + $25k. Didn't do anything. Then last week, "stumbled" on info on the net about a GM 15% discount on selected '15 left-overs, and the SS was on the list. Went to my dealer's site, and behold, the Heron White '15 was still there less 15%, + an additional discount because the owner had put 1,000 miles on the odometer - to good to be true?? Nope, what they advertised was the real cost - no gimmicks. One downside - automatic transmission. For the kind of discount that I got, I can handle driving an automatic. I bought it!!! Had it for less than a week, but love driving it - can't wait to put lots more miles on it!!
I'm a serious car person, and I can tell you you'd be hard pressed to find a similar car in any price range, especially when you throw in the manual transmission option. I was on the Holden website this morning, need to bring the Ute into the U.S., what a sweet El Camino (us old folks can remember that name), And, somehow, GM need to keep Holden alive, they've got too much bad history shutting down good divisions.
Awesome machine!

Car is beautiful the only minor setback is gas mileage but if that's of concern then you shouldn't even consider buying this car. I Love Mine !!! Charles In Honolulu Hawaii

I absolutely love this car. Its understated looks,great driving experience, advanced technology,and luxurious interior all for about 45k. The best thing about this car is its exhaust. Any complaints you have will be washed away once you start the car up. Performance is top notch and with the understated looks it's not a cop magnet. In fact the look on peoples faces when you floor it or start it up near them is priceless. However there are some downsides. Build quality is not quite the best but all the touch points are soft. The gas mileage is poor especially in the city. I get about 11 mpg with the auto. Speaking of the transmission it is very smooth but when you want to downshift with the paddles, it will take a second. There are various other very small complaints but they do not matter in the big picture of this car. If you are looking for a sedan around 40-50k I strongly urge you to go with this car.
Overall-9/10
Front tires don't last

Front tires have to be replaced every 13,000 miles abnormal wear. Had alignment checked at two chevy dealers and told it is in specs. Car has been always driven in more of a family car manor (very conservatively). Neither company dealer gives any reason for poor tire wear, zero warranty. Need to budget .06 a mile just to keep front tires on it. Heating and AC much to noise! My farm tractor is much more quiet.
Not for everyone

If you like comfort, performance, rear wheel drive four door family sedan then this is your car. The SS can be compared to the BMW5 (have both) favorably. Front and rear seat are very comfortable with plenty of room in the rear seats. Performance can be compared to the BMW m5, I think the SS is more fun to drive. Brakes are outstanding, love the heads up display and the magnetic ride control. The SS is simply a real sweetheart of a car. If you're looking for gas mileage above 22 mpg then you'll be looking at something else. I'll be keeping mine for many years because there's nothing like it. Sorry to see this vehicle discontinued, so it will be back to a German company for some fun. Then again, maybe I'll look at a Mclaren if Apple will bring out an all electric well designed super auto.
Sweet car - with of get and go

...& the only other reviewer's car is white too - drives like a smaller sports car in the twistys & a larger luxury car over bumps - won't buy another car w/out magnetic ride & heads up display - this modern sleeper is a wonderful long trip highway car that devours fuel - the 392 Hemi cars are a tick quicker & a bit faster, yet the SS is way more nimble & refined - roomy well finished leather/suede interior w/fake buckle holes in the comfortable front seats & slow to respond touchscreen - fit & finish are good & the paint resists chips - I like that I haven't seen another on the road - low production no bad boy understated sheet metal w/a bit much chrome - love the car, wonder about resale -

I purchased a 2015 Heron White Chevrolet SS. I was originally going to buy an Impala, but I saw the SS sitting in the dealer's lot and when I asked the salesman about it he said it had been there for about three months and no one really asked about it. Long Story short: Sat, Drove purchased and I am in love with it. I can tell you some of the great features you can not even find in other cars more expensive than this: Red Light Camera warning system, full size spare and to me this is probably the best car GM has ever made. I like the fact that it looks like a Malibu so I can very easily sneak up on other cars and pass them quickly especially on the Penn Turnpike.
