A Virtually new SS (2008 with 5000+-) Red 5spd clean / clear title one owner plus the dealer, went for 14K from a chevy dealer in ND. A pig with lipstick is still a pig, and I have an 09' 2.2, CGS Axle back and cold air intake, Eibach Pro, Eibach 25mm rear swaybar, 18"s with 235s and KYB front and rear. Done..for now.

if i was going to beat an ss. id go buy one and then go from there

but for my 2.2 i just wont a little bang for my buck. you know a little kick for the slow beast that it is . yes it gets up and goes . but not like the 2.4 or 2.0
