Arrrggggg
im soooo pissed i have been waiting a month now to get that phone call that says "hello my name is joe shmoe and im calling to let you know that your lease pull ahead is due, feel free to come down and pick up your new SS" every time my phone rings i cross my fingers hoping to god its the chevy dealer....any how, i went to the dealership AGAIN...(the sales persons practicly know me by first name now from going up there to gawk at the SS's so much)...and to my dissapointment they told me that they and area chevy dealers will not be carrying any manual non sc'd ss's due to the fact that they are not in popular demand....hmmmm....somethings fishy here.....when i told him that i insisted on having a manual he then RIGHT AWAY began to blab on and on about the SS S/C and said that well if you want a stick than this is what you want....and i was like uhhhh no this is not what i want...the 2.4 which has a much better looking interior and so on and so forth....but the point is, i think its bull **** that they are not only gonna not carry manual 2.4's, but also they going to try to push over the S/C SS on people who want the manual and sort of indirectly lead the less educated (about the car) people into beliving that if you want a stick you MUST get the SS, just to make a few more bucks on people. Total bs i think....u?

You will need to do some lage work. You should be able to find a Cobalt on the net that you are looking for and see if they can get it for you. They are just trying to sell there stork on hand and you will have to remain ferm on what you want. Remember were there is a will there is a way.

I'm pretty sure the interiors are the same 
However, you should not let them bully you into a deal you do not want. If they do not honor your agreement, or meet your demands, simply walk and go where you are more apprecieated as a customer.

Total bs i think....u? The salesman can just be ignorant of the car. It wouldn't suprise me if he honestly didn't think the 2.4 has a manual, because I can tell you that I've yet to see a MTX one. Only ATX's around these parts.

look around, find one, and tell the dealer you are going to go get that one, he will change his mind in a hurry.

It sucks cause there is a manual black 2.4SS right here in town, and everytime I ask the guy if I can test drive it he says yeah, then goes off and does something else. Salesmen suck.
Also, the problem my girlfriend is having with her car now (long story), she called up GMAC and they've been helping her out alot. And with the way the manager of the dealer she bought her car from was talking to her (he was talking to her like a complete ******* ******* last time she called), we think she's gonna get what she wants.

Total bs i think....u? It's hard enough to get a manual in NYC too. Trust me I know. I had to ORDER mine the way I wanted it. Put a deposit down and had the paperwork drawn up. Now I'm in the waiting game. BTW I think the fact that I got a SS sedan in Sunburst Orange didn't help. I really do not forsee that being a big time seller here in the big city. Anyway, maybe you should try that approach?

chevy proof the one with the chick in the car. Dont take this 100 percent though, if you notice under the caption they say its a sedan! they need to get their **** together.
here's an even better question: is she getting in or out of the car?

mine is auto but i know you can get 5 speed, he's just an idiot. just talk money to him. tell him if he wants any commission at all he'll get you the car you want and if not you'll go elsewhere. its worth it to get the car you really want.
