They are supposed to be getting a couple of them in at the dealership in Saint John, a Victory Red and a Black one, I might see if I can trade my 05 SS/SC in on the Black one, they are supposed to come with High Rise, LSD and the sunroof,

Went to GM.ca, and managed to build it, but locator does not work. On an interesting note, they did have an option for an underhood cover with the silver "ss" mark on it.

Are you referring to 07s or 08s

You could always get that as an accessory, but now the accessories are on the car builder page too

no, never got around to getting the old SC

I didnt like the clutch that much when accelerating from a dead stop, so I just let it go

plus the new one is cheaper here

Myself and Projekt just got back from a day of visiting all dealers in Winnipeg.
Two dealers have cars currently tagged as "In Transit" so it could be anywhere from 1 - 3 weeks landed.

I have been trying to go to some dealers in and around Toronto for some time now but I have been working late every day for months, and on Saturdays They will probably all be sold by the time I go to find out if the dealer has any...

Talked with a dealer in Richmond Hill last night, and he says that their 2 ss/tc's are in transit, and could be in as early as today. Might be a snag though, as some of the cars that come in are routed through Oshawa, and if they go through there, there could be a delay.
