    Well, if Chevy didn't put "SS" on every fucking car they sell then maybe it would be somewhat exclusive.

    Thats a shame. They were just starting to build some stuff that may have become legendary. The new Cobalt SS? That thing was a win-mobile. Sad to see this go. I feel like this was one of the things that may have saved the company.

    They are also not selling Saturns anymore after 2010, 11, or 12. Heard that this morning too. CAn't remember the exact year. The saturn dealers are trying to get someone to take up the car line.

    when a company has a performance marking for its models, they use it for every vehicle
    SS
    GT
    Type R/S
    SRT
    M
    AMG
    SE-R
    "R"
    "S"

    SS is a known chevy marking for performance.. so i dont see that being a problem..
