Vehicle Description
This 2003 Chevrolet SSR looks just a bit meaner on the outside, and
if you look under the hood, it gets a lot meaner with a
supercharger on the V8. They even made investments in areas like
the transmission to better handle the extra power. So you're not
just looking at a distinct hardtop convertible; you're looking at a
ton of fun for a value price.
Those who know the SSR will instantly see the distinction up front.
The bumper has a more aggressive look, the grille has billet-style
inserts, and what was once silver running across the front is now a
mean streak of black. While this makes it look different, it also
never strays too far from the style that makes these so unique. The
Redline Red paint is not overdone, but it retains a good gloss to
show off the car's unique curves. This one even has the right
accessories, like the running boards and the trailer hitch. Of
course, what makes the SSR such an instant classic is that the
rounded roof has a sporty profile, and this hardtop disappears
behind a panel that fits flush with the bed's tonneau cover so that
it looks like a true roadster.
More than just stylish, the SSR offers plenty of comfort, too. You
have dual leather bucket seats that power adjust to the ideal
individual position. There are signs of use that reflect the actual
mileage odometer, but overall, it has the kind of well-respected
appearance that will happily have you showing this one off with the
top down. It's loaded with the best features like power windows,
power locks, keyless entry/alarm, cruise control, a tilt steering
column, power steering, dual airbags, and a powerful AM/FM/CD
stereo with Bose speakers. The air conditioning is blowing nice and
cold to make sure you stay cool with the top-down in the summer,
and the heated seats mean you can even take down the roof on a
crisp fall evening.
The 5.3-liter Vortec V8is a fuel-injected powerhouse borrowed from
GM's truck line. It's a hardy powerhouse, and so it seems like a
great place to add the Magnuson belt-driven supercharger. More than
just extra power, the investments in the last few years have also
been about keeping this a sharp all-around performer. There was a
new transmission installed about 3k miles ago. It's a Jegs
high-performance four-speed so there's overdrive comfort when
you're cruising, and it also has a 3500 stall and shift kit for
when you really want to enjoy the supercharged power. They also
replaced the upper control arms, ball joints, tie rod ends, and
wheel bearings. And the four-wheel power disc brakes were upgraded
with drilled & slotted rotors.
Extra distinction and extra power meet in one of the coolest modern
classics around. So at a price like this, you know you want to
hurry up on this deal. Call today!!!
