chevy ssr

Guy on ebay selling the right to buy a ssr at msrp for a starting bid of $10,000. The vehicle will have the all powerful 5.3 . I think thats the engine that only makes about 265 ponies. I have a bridge that I can sell you to!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2418339025

Is that suppose to be a truck? That actually looks reallllly sharp. I like it a lot. I wouldn't pay no $10k plus MRSP. The MRSP on that will probably be outrageous on it. But does look sharp I'll let the rich people with lots of money and nothing to do buy it.

what a waste of space. on the subject of chevy's why dont they just take the SS and make it a camaro? I mean 35yrs of the name down the drain? Plus look at the SS, it would look sweet as a camaro

I've passed (opposite direction) 3 of them this week alone. (I go close to the milford proving grounds daily)

I gotta admit I do like the *style* somewhat. But I donno why they are lame on power? That style definately puts up an attitude. Guess its a "poser". (learned that from my teen this week )

BTW: Word in motown is that there is a retro styled camaro under developement.

WOT

I saw that thing at Last years Brickyard 400 at Indianaopolis Motor Speedway.

It was yellow..I was giving the girl a hard time about if Chevy would actually put it to production. She even laughed and said, yeah that she didnt know.

Guess they did it.

She was much better to look at than that truck!! he he he

Kinda looks like Chevy's answer to the Prowler:

What he said. But I can't wait to run one. The only thing I want to run more is an SRT10.

I am gonna start charging people for the right to talk to me. Whoever this character is, he sucks! I would probably hit him in the face. Sorry for the harsh words but this guy is a LOSER! If some1 is stupid enough to bid he will make at least 10g' sby doing nothing! I think those things suck. No power and I don't like the looks. Throw the 8100 in there and maybe I won't think it sucks(I won't like it though). Blah Blah Blah. So who want to buy an x-plan pin>??? Starting bid= $1,000,000. Let me know. -Mat-

The only problem is this. He states he has the right to purchase the 2nd SSR the dealership gets. Well look at this information:

Retail production will begin in early 2003, ramping up eventually to 10,000 to 12,000 units per year. However, the first model year (2003) will see only 2,500 units, with 5,000 more being produced in calendar year 2003 as 2004 models. Only one first-model-year (2003) SSR will be given to any particular dealer, and only dealers who sold at least 500 retail Chevrolet cars and trucks in calendar year 2001 (a figure which may be modified based on actual production) will get a single 2003 model year SSR. Only 250 retail sales will need to have been made to get a 2004 model (also made in 2003), and dealers will be able to receive more than one vehicle - again, based on sales. By the 2004 calendar year, dealers can receive up to nine SSRs each (a mix of 2004 and 2005 model years), depending on sales, and every Chevrolet dealer will have received at least one 2004 or 2005 SSR.
Based on this, if you are in the #2 slot at a dealer, it is very unlikely you will receive a 2003 SSR, and you may not even get a 2004 any time soon.

Who ever gets this chance, may still wait for awhile and that will lower the vlaue, since it won't be one of the first models.
