Only a couple of Kia's cars are. My friend is a co-op student for them at their plant in GA and told me most are made here in the US.

 

While I wont be trading mine, I would definitely go for this. Optional sweet tricked out wagon a plus!

 

Just a little pricey at 44k IIRC, once it sits on stealership lots for a good bit and the rebates start to hit it will be a good deal.

If the SS was around mid 30's I'd say it would be worth it.

 

I didn't realize it was that much..

 

Yeah unfortunately ( http://www.chevrolet.com/ss-sports-s...-zipcode=23061 ) it bases at 43,475 which for some reason it gets more expensive from there. If you select the only two options which are a full size spare and power roof it tops out at 47,170.


Hah, I see a zip at the end of my link so YMMV could explain why the base price jumped so much when I hit the SS link. Cars are pricey in the Hampton Roads area.

 

Hard to find but you can also get used police package Caprices. The detective models I've seen online look pretty good. Those are still PPV models.

 

I wanna get a police interceptor pacjaged crown vic and scare all my buddies.

 

Lol, that sounds like fun

 

And Corpusʻs stoner population has skyrocketed lately..... Ohhhhohihhoh the fun! Only risk is messin with the wrong stoner cuz ive seen some go crazy from that synthetic stuff.

Sorry offtopic!



But yea a couple down my street has one. Still has the pushbars up front, spotlight, hubcaps, and even the bars still blocking the back seat (requested they stay in for their dogs and grandkids), and no door handle on the inside of the rear seats. And still all the performance upgrades, thing hauls!
Old man put his own exterior speakers as well so he can yell at people! sometimes i wish he was my gpa

 

This.

Sounds awesome. Lol. I'd get a Marauder then put the CVPI front clip on it. I have some steelie Explorer wheels that I want to powdercoat black and put on my Escape, plus a push bar and spotlights.

 

Agreed. I like the look and of course it the only of its kind. But it's WAAAAY overpriced and gets awful MPG's.

 

Ugggh. One part of town that I have to drive in frequently is full of old cop cars. Spotlight hanging out of the window and everything. It's annoying at first but you start to realize that if it was a cop driving it, it wouldn't have a cracked bumper or scratches or dents.

 

I'm 40 and I have too. Mine's a grown-up car. It carries me to work, to church, to the store if necessary, etc. It's just a 655WHP grown-up car. If by "grown-up car" you mean one that is absolutely a drag to drive, then no, I'll never own one. It's possible to own fun cars and still be grown up.

 

You have more horsepower. When did this happen? I must have missed it.

 

Went in for TB, CAI and dyno tune...

 

Maybe he should have said a more practical car.

 

Get a 2006 Lincoln LS. V8. RWD. Looks boss. Not that old. Decently affordable.

 

Actually not a terrible opt. +1

 

The Chevy SS has been getting fantastic reviews, I would go test drive one and check it out.

 

I like the performance of the SS, but it just looks a little bland to me for what it is. If they styled it more like the Holden of Vauxhall equivalents id like it a lil more. Heck i like the new impala more than the SS
