What has four doors, can haul five adults (or kids, clients and even the in-laws), has a trunk that can swallow several golf bags, has 415 hp and can knock off 0-60 in the high 4-second range? If you’re thinking it comes from Bavaria, think again: The 2014 Chevrolet SS! As I’m sure most of […] More »
