Why the hell does the top speed of these cars even matter? There are lots of "fast" cars when it comes to their top speed. Hundreds are quicker than the cobalt, either 2.4L, 2.0T or 2.0SC.

We're talking about COBALTS here people. Yes, I like my car, but I recognize it's not exactly the pinnacle of vehicular engineering and neither is your Cobalt.

At least they're "talking" about Cobalts instead of girl problems, job problems, football, etc...

Ive gone 134, but after about 115/120 it takes foooorever to go faster. I have a tune though, bumped the limiter up to 145. Car feels good at high speeds, pretty steady.

Why do some people just believe their car is magically faster than what GM engineered it to be? Maybe they just want it to hit 180mph so bad they just imagine it happens...

Man, I really suggest you don't put it to the test. They'd spend weeks trying to find pieces of your body. Just have fun with your 0-70 mph, lol
