Up for auction is my Chevy SSR. It is titled as a 2005 but production history shows it as a 2006. Ricochet Silver over Pacific Blue. They only made 7 of these and they only made them in 2006 -- or so it says at http://www.ssrfanatic.com/forum/f4/rev-2003-06-production-history-8296/
If you're not already a member I'd highly recommend you check out SSRFanatic.com to find out everything you never wanted to know about these hot rods. This is my daily driver. Its NOT a show car. Its a car that is meant to be driven! It's just getting to that point where all these little things going wrong is just annoying me to the point where I have to move on. It runs great; like I said I drive it every day. But over the last few months I've put in a new battery, replaced the front tires, replaced all the steppers in the instrument cluster ( a common problem in SSR's), fixed the broken handle on the passenger door and put in a new ashtray because the stupid latch broke. The speedo and water temperature gauge work now but the oil pressure gauge is still pegged, and its not the gauge so it must be the sensor. The pressure is fine. Its just one more thing that needs to be fixed. Last summer I put in a new air conditioner compressor and I tried the A/C for the first time after this winter and now it's not working. It probably just needs a charge. Then, to top it off, I get ready to list it and the check engine light comes on with P0121 Throttle Position Sensor. The part is about $60 bucks and it'll cost you at least $200 if you have someone do it for you. Other than that laundry list of problems its a great ride. The front tires are new and the rear's will probably be needed by the end of the summer. I don't understand why the back tires wear out so fast. Maybe it has something to do with the 396 horse power LS2 power plant in front of that 6 speed manual transmission and posi-lock rear end. I have way too much fun in this car, which is probably another reason why I should sell it. Body and paint are excellent except for a couple little scuffs on the drivers front fender and a nice crease that goes thru the gas cap door on the drivers rear fender. Besides all the standard power everything, it has the Bose Premium Sound System and center console gage cluster. The bed is carpeted and it has the hard case locking saddle bags as well as the tow package and a removable hitch (which I have never even attached).
I was thinking of turning this into a project truck. I think it would make a great Baja racer, Can't you just picture it with long travel A-arms lifted up on top of some big meaty tires and a multi-shock setup? It's already fun! How much fun would that be?!
If I haven't' managed to talk you out of it, I set the reserve low because I really need to sell it before I change my mind. If you're not serious don't bid because that very next bid may be the one that hits the reserve and then she's all yours. If you win this auction I expect you to be good for the money. There's a $500 deposit due within 24 hours of the close of this auction and the remainder due when you pick it up. I will not do anything in regards to shipping. You must pick it up. This is an as is sale.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%
Sat, Jun 13 2015General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace
Fri, Oct 16 2015General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
