I could care less about any of thoe changes. I like my gun metal rims for now and i'd replace the stock rims anyways. Steering wheels don't matter to me, and when you have an mp3 deck theres no need to have 6cds all ready when one mp3 can hold just as many.

More good news folks!

The G7 is only available with the 2.2L (148 HP) or the 2.4L (173 HP)! No 2.0L S/C to be found!

Interesting that the pontiac arrowhead gives you 3 HP! Thats B.S. They used to do that with the Grand Am GT. 175 HP from Ram-Air compared to 170 HP in the Alero. Only problem was the GT was heavier because of all the plastic **** on the car neglecting the gain. I'm betting the G5 will be heavier than the 'Balt.

I was planning on getting my s/c 06 next month, but I might hold out one more month. Damn GM, now I don't know if I should wait even another month.

When do you think these would hit dealer lots?

I think there is an actual gain for the 2.4L in the delta platforms. ION is 175hp. Maybe the increase on the Cobalt has not been published yet....? Or they are rated with the new SAE measeurement....

I gotta take you to task on your GAGT remarks though All in good fun though

The air induction was better, as was the exhaust. 5 hp and 10lb-ft
Also the axle ratio was 3.29 VS 3.05. It was faster but not much I admit. Few tenths.

Retarted that the 2.0 LSJ is not offered. Makes me think that they cannot feasilbly offer it at all. You would think they would, esp if the the LSJ is going to be around a long time, which is a debated question.

You'll be waiting more then two months for one man. They go into production in June, and this is an 07 car, the first run won't be available untill September, as with any new model year release.

Indeed. But I took some thinking and came to the conclusion that if someone can't change a cd every 130 songs they shouldn't be driving because they are ultra lazy. Don't get me wrong a 6disc would be cool but def. not enough to make me wish I held out a year before buying mine.

Only thing that got me pumped was the 3 spoke wheel. This is post likely what it will be. Also, would this be the new radio too with the AUX?

Forget about not changing the disc, think about the random mode. I could fit half my CD collection in the changer using MP3 format.
