2015 so it has all the final updates, including backup camera and MyLink. South Dakota Highway Patrol car, 19K actual miles. Was lightly hit in left front. Repaired by replacing entire left front knee (even though you can see from the pic, it was tweaked rather than destroyed), left front fender and driver door. All airbags remained intact. Car drives perfectly; it aligned easily to factory specs.

While in service it had a spotlight and 2 antennae, but all those holes were filled. Front bumper license plate holes filled for a cleaner look. Interior is in excellent shape except for a couple of headliner holes: seats, door panels, dash, floor all excellent: no holes or wear. Driver A pillar cover replaced so no spotlight hole from the interior either. Still has a faint new car smell!

Amber turn signal portion inside the driver headlight is cracked and there are two scratches on the outside clear cover. They do not really affect the functionality of the headlights or turn signal, but the assembly should be replaced to match the rest of the nice car (unless someone has a light broken near the bright and you could remove the cover and replace the internal amber turn signal cover.)

$15,000 in Phoenix. Why so cheap? Title is restorable salvage. This site has 5 picture per post limit, so next post will have a picture of the original damage so you can see for yourself that it was not hurt too badly.

If you change the steering wheel, and want to sell that one, let me know. I have a 2014 with a totally destroyed wheel! Must have been chubby officers rubbing their gun belts on it!

Paul A new one for those years aint that expensive. THink about 125 for the wheel only. There is a part number that includes all the controls (biut those are for the SS) as well but just transfer over yours.

GM Parts World - 15SS steering wheel

Buy a leather one for an SS or a Camaro. They are cheap.
