Upgraded from a 2.0T to an SS. Finally happy.

Upgraded to a 2016 1SS w/ NPP a week ago and needless to say, I'm blown away. I test drove the SS a while back, but still initially purchased a 2.0T.

I had buyer's remorse a few weeks later.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the 2.0T, but it just didn't have the grunt that the SS had (or the sound to go along with it). I saw a great deal on a CPO 1SS and bit the bullet (and my wallet felt the 2.0T depreciation, too). But I can say I'm finally—truly—satisfied and happy.

I wanted to share some pictures with you all, so here you go! The color is blue velvet metallic.

Nice car, nothing like a V8. Amazing photos. The first one especially is stunning.

That was the only downfall of the four cylinder it's the sound or lack thereof. That's why I stayed away from it and I upgraded to the six with the NPP. Will the four cylinders a torkey little beast the most enjoyable thing about having a muscle car is the sound when you fire it up and when you hop on it. But that is a huge upgrade to the V8 congratulations man I'm sure you're going to love that
