WOW, it could be... It doesn't have those FAKE Silver Harness thingys on the seats. NICE!!!

I don't know why GM seems to care so much about my happiness, but it's freaking amazing that they do!


Let's try something:


/clears head
/closes eyes
/wiggles fingers and begins chanting:


OOOOOOOFFFFFFERR BLAAAAACCK WHEEEEEEEEELS.

wolololololololololh34r:


BLAAAAAAAAAACK WHEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLS........

 

Interesting, that looks to be the case. I'm not familiar with the MRC controls, where are they located?

 

At :20 in, the round control knob next to the park assist button.

 

Remember those 25 pre-orders that came first in the 2014MY?

Edit: Looks like a repeat for 2015! Must be nice to be at the top of Chevy preview list.

 

Um, my 2014 has this.......

 

Has what?

 

Looks like rear brembos to me

 

Hm. Rear Brembos. Yahtzee!!

 

No paddle shifters.

Could be a manual transmission.

 

Possible left leg movement at about :30, can't really tell though. I've been looking for any sort of tell-tale sign for a few minutes. I feel like a perv staring so close to his crotch to see if a clutch is being used.

 

When he puts it in reverse, it looks like he is moving the lever to his right. (around the :22 second mark)

 

You guys might be on to something there. On the display it shows "Tour" which I think would also support the mag ride theory, and that arm movement when shifting into reverse is suspect, and unless he is left-foot braking, there is definitely suspicious leg movement. Wow.

 

Can't tell if it's manual, but that's definitely a 2015. MRC is a dead giveaway.

Now I know why the official Chevrolet facebook page had a screenshot of that video saying that "Auto Park Assist is a first on a Chevy model", even though we've had it on MY14. My guess is that they had just seen this video.

 

I have had automatic park assist on my 2013 SV6 in Australia since Oct. 2013 it is standard equipment on all models since the VF Commodore was introduced. It is nothing new here.

 

Why is everyone so excited about Brembo rear calipers? They were eliminated as a cost savings because they basically are not a significant factor in braking performance.

Don't get me wrong, I would like a "matched set" simply because I know they cheaped out................but I also know they cheaped out because there was no difference.

 

:wink:

 

I'm really not seeing rear Brembo's ... But I do wonder if it will have PTM or no PTM ...

 

Front end looks the same, guess no "more aggressive front end"?

 

For us Drag racers..... rear brembos are a turn off.

17" is the smallest wheel with a 275/40/17 Drag radial as is.

Then I miss my G8 GT brakes a little bit when it comes to the track, had to sell my GTO spares as they do not fit over the Brembos..

If I remember correctly, the G8 GT stopped within a couple of feet of the GXP and SS

BUT...... they look cool. Eh...

 

G8 GT - 167ft
G8 GXP - 156ft
SS - 153ft

GT not similar.

 

I don't see rear brembos on this car unless they are some sort of black colored test brakes. I like that they got rid of those silver things in the seat but the new seat really looks odd in that same area. Maybe this is a preproduction test car and things are still being finalized. Making all cars have all black trim and wheels next year would be awesome. Oh and some red or yellow calipers...


I slowed it down and see rear 4 piston brakes. That's awesome.

 

Well the CTS spares I got don't fit..... I'm bummed.

 

awww man now I want a 15 now

 

knob design looks quite different to the HSV:

 

So that's what is supposed to be in that little pocket!

 

Looks similar to the Stingray's:

 

Not sure what to think. Headrests look different, appears(at least on my old laptop) to have white not red stitching on center console lid and maybe down the center of the seats. Maybe just because I'm used to the look, but all of a sudden I like my little plastic doohickeys on my seats...

 

Automatic Parking Assist: 2014 Chevrolet SS | Chevrolet - YouTube

Pulled from the Chevy SS Performance Facebook group:
Watch closely. This car appears to have MagRide, Rear Brembos, no fake 5-point harnesses on the seats, and no integrated front license plate bracket!

http://www.facebook.com/groups/ChevySSPerformanceSedan/

Excellent catch!! This definitely looks like a manual transmission SS with MRC. Can't wait to see more information soon!!!

 

This is the mode dial in the GTS, looks the same as above with some different words. You'd have thought I could have at least given the console a wipe over before taking a phone pic!

 

Does the GTS have PTM or just Tour & Sport ?

 

For $100k it better have PTM!!
