This is still the better deal when it comes to performance. not only do you get an extra 55 HP, but a 3 mode bilstien suspension, 4 wheel brembos vs front wheel only. And if you want to give up the adjustable suspension, you can o for the Superbee add the nav, paddles, and HIDs and it is 45.330 (this would be my choice in pitch black or white) before GG tax, not to mention the Superbee graphics, interior, etc. I do really like the SS though and am not saying it is opverpriced, it is not, like i have said in a day and age when you can price a loaded compact in the 30s and a loaded midsizer in the upper 30s, 44470 is not a bad price for a fully loaded performance sedan with over 400 HP and i would easily take it over any of the others including the 300 SRT, SHO (this makes a heck of used car value as 10 and 11 models can be found in the mid 20s with decent miles) , and Genesis R Spec.
And yeah, i know on the Impala SS too bad i figure the XTS TUrbo will be over 60k for starters :(. now there is always the CTS turbo, maybe they will eventually offer the turbo 6 with AWD in it?
