Lot Details & Additional Photographs
VIN: 1GCES14HX5B118025 Mileage: 28,400

with a LS2 390 horsepower 6.0L V8 engine with a four-speed automatic transmission. This is the last year of production for the SSR, and received an upgrade from the 300 horsepower 5.3L V8 offered in 03' and 04'. It shared this motor with the C6 Corvette, Trailblazer SS and GTO. It is capable of 0-60 in 5.5 seconds and the quarter mile in 14 seconds. It also received newly tuned steering, updated exhaust routing, and the addition of a dead pedal. It features traction control, that is automatically overridden if you manually shift into first. If you wanted a hot rod pickup truck styled after the Advanced Design truck of the late 40's and early 50's, this was the one to get of the three model years.

The platform was a rogue idea that no one thought would ever see the light of day. By utilizing parts from GM's parts bin, contracting Karmann for the design of the retractable hard top, and utilizing new tooling techniques for the deep fenders GM was able to produce a real head turner.

With a silver exterior and black leather interior. The interior features some retro features such as the round dials and gauges, including the pod mounted on the center console. Convenience features such as power seats, windows, convertible top, mirrors and locks, along with cruise control, intermittent wipers, AM/FM/CD with Bose speakers, and automatic headlights with fog lights. The SSR has 23.7 cubic-feet of cargo space in a carpeted bed with the optional wood trim that is capped by a nice hard tonneau cover. It has a few really unique touches including bow tie side markers, interior parts trimmed in the exterior color, and 20" chrome star wheels in rear and 19" in the front wrapped in fat 295/40R20-19 Goodyears.
