The Chevrolet Super Sport Roadster was one of the boldest and most unique vehicles General Motors ever produced, blending retro inspired truck styling with true modern V8 performance. This 2006 example is especially desirable, finished in the rare Black Asphalt over Ricochet Silver two tone paint combination with a black leather interior. According to SSR production records, only 238 examples were produced in this color combination, making it one of the rarer SSR’s available today. This truck is also equipped with the highly sought after optional Bright Chrome Package, adding factory chrome wheels, interior chrome trim accents that perfectly complement the dramatic two tone finish.
Under the hood sits the legendary Chevrolet LS2 6.0L V8 producing 390 horsepower and 405 lb ft of torque. Shared with the C6 Corvette, the all aluminum LS2 transformed the SSR into a true performance machine with excellent throttle response, strong low end torque, and unmistakable V8 sound. The drivetrain delivers smooth and effortless cruising while still offering serious acceleration when called upon. Combined with a fully independent suspension, four wheel disc brakes, and balanced chassis engineering, the SSR delivers a driving experience far more refined than most expect from a retro styled pickup.
The black leather interior is clean, comfortable, and loaded with modern amenities. One of the SSR’s most unique features remains its power retractable hardtop, allowing the truck to transform from a stylish coupe into an open air roadster at the touch of a button.
The exterior presentation is outstanding. The Black Asphalt and Ricochet Silver finish highlights the SSR’s dramatic curves and retro body lines perfectly, while the Bright Chrome Package gives the truck an upscale custom appearance directly from the factory. The body, paint, engine compartment, and underside all reflect careful ownership and excellent maintenance throughout.
Clean LS2 powered examples become increasingly difficult to find. The 2006 SSR has become a very collectible modern performance vehicle. With its rare color combination, optional chrome package, Corvette factory sourced LS2 powertrain, and retractable hardtop, this SSR stands out as one of the most distinctive and memorable vehicles of the 2000s. If you are searching for something unique that combines style, performance, fun and rarity, this truck deserves serious consideration.
