SS means Super Sport. And since when was even a Cobalt SS nice? They are all poorly crafted and horrible to drive...I know as I DD a LT Sedan.

SS cars were optioned with the supercharger until 2008 when the turbo models came out. Any of the boosted SS models, Coupe, OR Sedan were manual only as the automatic transmission was for the 2.2 Ecotec cars and the 2.4 High Output SS's.
