The extended cab production version. I was hoping that the regular cab Siverado SS would be there....but it wasn't

I sat in an M45 when the MT auto show was here in Baltimore and the one thing I noticed was for such a massive car the interior is tiny. I'm not a terribly big guy, 6'2", 210lbs and not only was the back about as tight as my SS's rear seats, but the front was really tight as well, I mean the car has a 7 foot hood and 5 foot trunk and yet there's not enough space for someone 6'2" to sit comfortably? seems like a glaring mistake to me.

The Aveo is the new Camaro, but its top-secret so please dont tell anyone. The Aveo SS comes out next year with a LS6 and all wheel drive and it will do the 1/4 mile in under 9 secs.

If you could get an LS6 in it.....I'd bet would do the 1/4 mile in 9 sec.

What does the Tahoe SS have? The same AWD drivetrain and wheels/trim as the Silverado SS?

I'm curious. If they ever release this, I may actually have to trade in my '02 LS.

Tahoe SS has same 6.0 as Silverado SS, but it is RWD and has the "police pursuit" suspension which lowers it by 2". It also has the pre-2003 nose.

IMO it looks alot nicer than Siverado SS. The AWD system on the Silverado SS necessitates a high ride height.....which makes it look alittle dorky, with those 20" wheels.

If they actually build it that way, I'm getting it!
