I just got a car fax on a ss. I know the ss is just a package but in the car fax it says nothing about it being an ss. Does anyone no if its supposed to be there or no? Thanks in advance

When I ran a carfax on my WS6 it only came up as a Transam.

SS won't show up just Z28. Just like WS6 or Firehawk won't either. Basically carfax will tell you its a V8 (Z28), number of owners and if it's had any accidents. You can look in the door jam to check if its a real SS (WU8 option) or call SLP Eng and give them the VIN.

Edit: your insurance company can run the VIN too, most reconize Z28, SS, & WS6 as different options now.
