Re: Chevy SS will be made to order....
... And it could have all been avoided if GM had taken the plunge to re-tool factory space to build the platform here in the US in the early 00's.
Chevy SS is a classic bone-head move by GM to create a stopgap between outgoing cars and cars we really want. You know "you gotta spend money to make money"? well this is like "you gotta spend money to spend money to break even to make money"

Re: Chevy SS will be made to order....
the name aside.. (haters gonna hate) The car is being built again in AU due to existing tooling in factories there. Once the car comes to the "Alpha" platform in FY2016 the model will be built in Georgia (maybe) and the unit will become "Its Awesomeness". GM has not set a limit on the production numbers for this car, market demand will prevail. Provided sufficient interest (whatever that is) GM will allow more and more options and packages available.
I can't wait to see one in person.

Re: Chevy SS will be made to order....
Ordering one can't be anywhere near as bad as ordering a subaru. Subaru won't build to order a car, you place a order with them and if they build a car to your specs, your dealer has a allotment for it, it might be assigned to you. It took 18 weeks for my STi to come in and it took just as long for my moms outback.

Re: Chevy SS will be made to order....
I hear that it will be on lots, that many dealers will be making large orders of "special orders".
Either way, this car is a hot car. Sweet car for anyone looking for a clean four door with a V8...
LS3 in a family wagon? Pretty damn cool if you ask me.
Just saying its "special order" is another marketing technique of GM, trying to hype it. It's all about the marketing....Mods: Racingline STB, Racingline grounding kit, Racingline MMI, Crabs Intake O3 w/ FPU, Redline Quicklift PLUS, Front R1Concepts Drilled and Slotted Rotors, Posi Quiet Ceramic Pads, BMD Adjustable Endlinks, H&R Sport Lowering springs, WAMS 93 Octane ECM Tune
Appearance Mods: Eagle Eye Projector Headlights (Black), Dart Carbon Fiber Overlays, Full Debadge, Plastidipped Grill, Black Altezza Tail Lights, Red Interior LEDs

i would rethink that choice if i were you. go check out the reviews for those things. hell, go test drive one, the interior is uncomfortable and unbalanced and it drives boring as hell.

Re: Chevy SS will be made to order....
They will not be on lots. The only ones that are will be already purchased, just getting some "show room time" before the owner picks it up.
There's going to be less than 3,000, more like 2,000 made for the 2014 Model Year. The way it works out there will be only 1 for every 2 dealers out there if that. Of course small dealers will not be able to even order them. Only larger ones with the buying power will be able to.
The way they're setting it up, they are setting it up to fail. They're going to sell the 2,000 on the lot, call the program a failure and use that as an excuse to kill production of Holden's in Australia and go the Ford root and only import cars to Australia.2015 Chevy SS, Perfect Blue Metallic, Sunroof, No Spare, M6
