Sorry for the shaky camera. We forgot to bring a dash mount!


Took this video when we got to play with the new 08 SS earlier this month. See original thread here.

What were you testing on your so-called test drive other than the cruise control? Looked to me like a tourist cruise through the mountainside. Some 30mph pulls would have been nice...?? Nonetheless any video footage is truly appreciated, thanks! Still would have liked to see GM refine the spoiler issue with the new model instead of adding the same appendage the earlier ones acquired. A nice lip would finish that ass-end off so much nicer much like the G5's.

I hear ya. That was 5 minutes of coasting through traffic and down a couple of hills. WTF? I thought it was gonna be a some hammering through the turns and a few WOT side by side.

Hell, I've accelerated and turned way harder in my 2.2L than those guys did in the ss/tcs.

I give the video a 9/10 for effort, but a 3/10 for content, so that gives the video an overall of 6/10. Meh.
