I just traded my '09 Buick Enclave for a new 2014 SS, which is almost exactly like the 2015. Mine is black with six speed automatic. We nearly bought a '09 G8 instead of the Enclave, but the G8 has no driver memory, no heads-up display, no heated seats, no collision warning or lane change warning, no automatic parking, and only basic Bluetooth & entertainment features. The SS has all of that and more--more than the Enclave!

The 415 HP and rear wheel drive is fantastic, as is the exhaust tone. Handling, braking (Brembo calipers all around) is not like any Impala (rental car?). Interior room and comfort is not like any Camaro or Corvette!

In short, I don't know of any sedan that has the features or performance of the SS at anywhere near the $45K price.

I don't think any of you that posted have ever driven an SS, or your comments would have been quite different.

You look a little young to drive, you're the one in the middle right?
Nice sports sedan, those bashing are out of touch with current offerings I think, this is NOT A MUSCLE CAR...its a sports sedan for those who have multiple passengers and daily all weather driving.
I'd take an auto to haul the family around, since I can't go buy a new G8 or Grand Prix.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
