Hello, I am looking for an SS, I came across this one online, but the intake looked different then what i have seen before. Can anyone shed some light as to what this this?

Are you talking about the engine cover over the upper intake, or the factory air box with the filter and mass air flow?

Two different interpretations for intake.

Both look stock to me.

Yep, looks like a bone stock car to me.

Ditto -- bone stock -- looks like they clear coated it to make it look 'spiffy'

That's a clean and shiny engine bay but that intake is all stock.

Those extensions are the factory sound isolators/baffles to quiet the intake sound down.

Aftermarket Cold Air systems delete these baffles and really wakes the car up in terms of overall engine noise and you can hear the rush of the air.

But that car appears to have the stock set up on it.

If you want a Cold Air Intake, take a look at what we have to offer. We have a high quality kit that is very popular around here and has been a proven system since this Camaro came out. Let me know if you have any questions, I would be happy to help.

Thanks! I already decided on CAI! I hear nothing but good things. Thanks again everyone, I was doing some more looking, seems it is on them, I think I didn't notice due to the usual black color, and of course because everyone on here pretty much replaces it first thing. Appreciate your time.
