Thus setting the precedent that I could kinda half explain up there.. herp.
Needless to say, nothing to complain about when Chevy is going cut and dry on what RS really was. And for it to be watered down rather than SS is probably for the best..
Let us never forget that travesty which was the '07 Malibu Maxx SS
