2006 Chevrolet SSR Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2006 Chevrolet SSR rave about its unique design and fun driving experience. Many appreciate the stylish, retro look and the fact that it's a rare collectible. A standout feature is the vehicle's convertible hard top, which adds excitement to driving. However, some owners mention the lack of modern technology and limited functionality for heavy towing or as a family vehicle, noting it’s more about enjoyment than utility."
Vehicle is missing modern technology however its what i wanted..
October 31, 2022I have owned two 2005 SSRs w/6 speed transmissions, thats the only item missing on this one. Only 2,300+or- SSRs were made with the manual transmissions. Since this model was only produced from03-06, parts can be difficult to find. Upside is the rarity of a pickup truck w/ a convertible hardtop. Fun 4 two, on fair weather days!!! JoeD.
November 22, 2023I have a 2006 SSR & love it. I sold a 2001 Mercedes 500 SL & a 1995 Corvette & kept my SSR it rides great, carves a corner like a steak knife & runs like a bat out of hell & is the coolest vehicle I have ever owned. It is so fun to drive this thing top up or top down its a blast. My wife & I have taken it on several long vacations & enjoy it more every trip,Plus we have enough room in the bed to haul all the luggage or souvenirs we want. We hated taking the Corvette or the Mercedes on vacations because of the limited space in the back. The corvette had room for a duffel bag & 2 small suit cases . The Mercedes had a little more room but still no room if you wanted to take a suit bag or dresss The SSR has room for a Suit/Dress bag 2 duffell bags 2 suit cases a couple of folding chairs Plus a hail protector that covers the SSR if you arr caught in a hail storm. Traveling is so much easier in this.

August 31, 2023Unique, retro, better than a resto-mod, Holding value well . Best two seater trunk ever!
September 6, 2022Retro features with modern technology for the time. Limited production in the years it was produced will mean that its a collectable.
October 31, 2020Fantastic looking and totally awesome and different. Only convertible hard top truck ever built. Only thing to know, this is not a work truck or for towing. This SSR is just for excitement, fun and showing off, crowds gather where ever you go to look at it or ask questions. Put the top down and go cruising. ENJOY.
May 20, 2021Basically this would have to be one of the newest designs for a car / truck. Its a great vehicle to have if you want more cargo space but less family traveling time together. Power is pretty decent, but I wouldn't just go towing around big stuff just yet, so be sure to check on the rating. Looks, decent.. not to shabby, not to girly either so if I owned one, it wouldn't bother me. There's no back seats, there's cargo space, which is why this was created but again, no back seats. Handles great, I haven't had any issues with it. I know I have this rated at 3 for a family car but really it should be less, but considering the fact that not all families require more than two people, I can't really disagree with it being decent. Price for a new one, at the time, was expensive.. if I remember they ran around 30 grand brand new.. used, I'm not so sure but since they aren't being produced anymore I would say maybe 10 grand or less for a used one. Cargo, as mentioned before, is more then enough.
November 8, 2011Especially the FPR Stick Shift is a collectible...probably a great investment!
