Default Spied in America - 2014 Chevrolet Super Sport

It has a big hood bulge the G8 didn't have, really big brakes and LED running lights up front under the camo.



Could it be packing LSA power afterall? And will it be a Chevrolet badged HSV GTS Commodore instead of a standard V8 Commodore SS?

Mirrors, rockers, and doors look the same. I hope that front turn signal isn't the finished look. :blah:

I doubt the buldge means LSA or LS9. I think it is just styling. I like.

I hope it gets a Gen V instead of a "dated" Gen IV.

I agree.

I'm starting to get a little bit excited about this new SS.

It looks like the hood is vented too, judging by the mesh on the camo on top of the hood.

The ZL1 has a vented hood as well. There have been rumors for awhile now that HSV will start using the LSA/LS9 Down Under...

Sorry for the double post but if its going to look like the HSV GTS Commodore. Does that mean we might be able to expect the HSV Maloo but instead the El Camino SS?

If this thing comes over to the US, it'll be yet another FLOP by GM.

I have a strong feeling that the Gen V will be debuted in the SS. It makes perfect since to debut the next generation of dominance in a car named Super Sport. I will be furious if the "dated" LS3/L99 are the engine options.
