OK, before all you euro-snobs turn up your noses, consider this:

415 HP and 415 ft/lbs of torque with a manual transmission .
(You can shifft a stick, can't you Nancy?)

[

Cons: exterior styling that's kinda boring, but that fits with the definition of "sleeper".

Still, good to see the V-8 stick sedan isn't totally dead.

Is this a concept or can you actually buy one with a stick?

You would think they could at least give it a little more style like the Malibu.

That's not an Impala. It's known simply as a "SS".

That's a pic of the SS, not the Impala SS (if there even is one)

Looks like a regular Chevy SS...which looked like a Pontiac G8. Would be fun to drive I'm sure.

I still have a rough time taking Chevy cars seriously.

This is a step in the right direction as far as interior goes.

That 6.2 has plenty of bottom end, I just don't know where that thing would fit.

Hide it under the front seat next to the headlight fluid.

I really want this car but when I search for a manual there doesn't seem to be too many in stock within a decent driving distance. Looks like I'd have to order one. I'm hoping to find a manual with magnetic ride on the used market in a year or two when I need a new car.

Is that based off of the Caprice the cops are shooting dogs from these days?

They are both based on the Holden Commodore.

You'll more than likely have to order a manual if you really want one. Does anyone have a lead on the price range for this vehicle? I'm curious if someone would match it up against the Charger Hellcat.
