It finally looks like Chevy is going to allow the general public to have the Caprice Cop Car, starting in late 2013 they are going to be selling something they are currently calling "The SS".........It will be interesting to see what they actually do end up producing

 

I thought they announced this a while back, along with new NASCAR cars?

But the Caprice is a Statesman, the SS is supposed to be the Commodore/G8 reintroduction. I hope the Ute gets planned to come over again.

 

Link?

Where is Trishield on this one?

 

Thankyou Jp !!!! Finally someone else understands the concept that the caprice is not a damn g8

 

If the ute comes here my diet will change to ramen and I will get that car lol

 

agreed the ute is awesome, and i was pissed when pontiac went under instead of putting one out.

 

Maybe they did, I don't know and I am just behind the times....

I second that on the Ute!!! that would be awesome!!

here is the link

I've been saying it for months.

 

its gonna be Zeta platform

 

Agreed

 

The Commodore and Statesman are both Zeta. The G8/SS is a Commodore and the Caprice is a Statesman (which was renamed the Caprice in 2010).

The new VF Commodore (SS) is supposed to be lighter and more technologically advanced, and restyled. I'm curious to see the final product, may sway me away from a Challenger.

 

might as well get a f-350 if you want something that heavy. . .

 

EDIT: Still floating the idea of a 5.3L Colorado, as well.

 

Those have the potential to be deadly. Alas noone up here is interested in them.

 

that would be a fun project, but it sucks you cant get the 5.3 in a short cab and short bed combo.

 

Ext. cab isn't much heavier. Edmunds says 3559 lbs, I don't see how.

 

thats not bad, still i like the looks of a short cab.


i just wonder why they dont offer it like that... afraid the power to weight ratio might be to high lol

 

Possibly. lol

 

if the ss are the same as the new cop cars they will be a joke...http://www.lsxtv.com/news/video-drag...tective-model/

 

Far from it. Whole new model.
