Jeffrey Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 Might actually be worth a damn!! They are pulling the 5.3 300hp engine and are putting in the 6.0 LS2 w/ 390hp 405tq. Still might be too expensive for a niche car/truck but hey it may be worth it now!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Red Evo Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Way too much money for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony_K Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Too little, too late. How much freakin' common sense does it take to realize that to charge a lot of money for a car it has to have some 'go' to it?!?! This mess is a hopeless, overweight lump, like Ford and the T-Bird. GM shooting themselves in the foot AGAIN. For all the Aleros and Auroras I see on the roads, they killed Oldsmobile; yet they blindly pushed this retro-pig through to production and continue emptying their pockets on it. The fiascos keep piling up for GM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 im not such a fan of the ssr's. i know some muscle car guy's at work love them, but their just over-priced and too heavy for the powertrain they put in them, at least with 6.0 ls2 it will have a little more "get up and go" but this, i would MUCH rather have this smile.gifhttp://www.autoweek.com/cat_content.mv?port_code=autoweek&cat_code=carnews&loc_code=index&content_code=09818491 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BLACKBIRD99 Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 SSR=way too retro. I wonder if Ford designed the SSR too. graemlins/wtf.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony_K Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 I saw a red SSR on the road yesterday. I thought, "Wow, that's the whopping...SECOND...time I've actually seen one of these; they must be catching on" ...then I noticed the plastic on the seatbacks and fenders, window sticker and misc. crap stuck all over it like it was just delivered, and the dealer tag slapped on it, and I realized it was only being taken for a test drive - no one had actually bought it yet. I got a pretty good look at it, and all I can say is that that thing is uselessly tall and ugly. Not sporty, not practical, not efficient, not fast, not cool. Just a big mass of mis-shapen metal, garish and wasteful, overbearing and tasteless like Mimi on the Drew Carey Show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
