How many of you remember seeing this Chevrolet SS concept car? When i first saw it I thought GM was onto something great and willing to put in the R&D to bring us something totally new and fresh, unlike anything we've ever seen. But as we all can see, it didn't turn out that way, the production model Chevrolet SS is nothing like it's concept.
The Chevy SS concept car reminds me of something Porsche Panamera-like.

Dude, the SS Concept was from 2003.
Car enthusiasts know this concept car.
Too bad GM didn't stick with the 3,660 curb weight.
The Fisker Karma concept debuted at the 2008 NYC show.

Manufacturer General Motors Class Concept car Body style 4-door sedan Layout FR layout Engine 6.0 L V8 Transmission automatic Length 198.9 in (5,052 mm) Width 76 in (1,930 mm) Height 53 in (1,346 mm) Curb weight 3,660 lb (1,660 kg) Designer(s) Franz von Holzhausen The Chevrolet SS was a concept car designed, branded, and built by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. It was introduced at the 2003 North American International Auto Show and was never approved for official production. The SS (which stands for Super Sport) was intended to be a modern version of past SS variant vehicles, such as the Camaro and Chevelle.Contents
Engine
The SS used an all-aluminum 6.0 L V8 engine rated at about 430 hp (321 kW) and 430 lb·ft (583 N·m) of torque. The suspension of the SS was tuned for performance rather than comfort and emphasized its sporting characteristics. The integrated exhaust pipes on the bumpers of the SS were similar to those of historical muscle cars. An 8.0 L 850 hp (634 kW) engine was originally installed in the car, but due to street legality issues, it was removed.[citation needed]

Design
The design of the SS is a mix of styles and styling cues from both modern sports and muscle cars. It featured vinyl and leather seats, and it also had functions from earlier Chevrolet muscle cars such as the horseshoe-shaped shifter. There were modern electronics and functions such as a DVD player and an audio system complete with satellite radio.

Would have never thought a car like that weighed 3,600 LBS. It looks like a concept car that can easily pass 4000 LBS.

Wouldn't be surprised if carbon fiber parts were used or some sort of light material.
