According to a plant manager at Lordstown, the new SS's will have similar seats that you see in the Turbo HHR.

wow this is going to be crazy I can not wait till this happens I am def trading the sedan in for it. do yu guys think it will be availble on a sedan? and do you think they will offer it both in automatic and manual transmission or just manual like the supercharger to make it feel more sporty. But hey I think that they should just come out with a 2.2 supercharger or turbo kit for us GM guys scion TC's have the TRD department why cant we do something like that idk beats me. ok guys ill be back on the boards tommrow im sure this will have plenty of views and replies by tommorow goodnight all.

ehhh...i'm pretty happy with my supercharger. i'll wait awhile i think before thinking about getting the turbo'ed version.


i mean, if you don't draw the here, where do you draw it? i wonder if it is vvt and gets comparable gas mileage.

I LOVE my supercharger and the sound that comes with it......but it would be nice to have a base car turbo'd @ roughly 260HP vs a base supercharged 205HP car. I've upgraded to my mods now and I'm between 250 and 260HP I'm guessing. I like the idea that they did not seem to change the look of the car that much. I love the styling of our cars. Maybe this is all BS but the thought is very tempting. yummy
