That's because GM showed it in a really dumb color. The VF Commodores look a ton better in different colors.

There's still hate but it has moved from the styling to the lack of a manual and that they will only be built as sold orders meaning unless a Chevy dealer puts up 40,000 or whatever the price may be the only SS's you will see in the states are sold units.

That shouldn't be surprising. It was always going to be a build-to-order car. There won't be much inventory at all because GM doesn't want there to be inventory.

If I had kids I'd be all over this thing, but I'm not ready for that.

Never said it was surprising, but if they are built to order I'll take mine with a stick.

I would be in that camp, I think it's very boring/bland. The G8 IMO looked way better and much more aggressive.

Cars are usually shown in silver because it tends to show body lines better than most other colours. Thats why you see so many concept cars done in silver. Could be why they went with it for the SS.

Not so good in White/Silver

I've seen a white SS. It's not bad actually.

Silver just looks boring on this car for some reason.
