bye bye my old friend

fell in love with the cobalt ss the first time i laid eyes on it, so i bought a '06 cobalt ss/sc in 07 and have never had any issues and did some mods on it, but the time has come to an end, i'm sellng it to my sister and was looking at getting either the '09 or '10 cobalt ss, and i had a few questions.

1- what, if any, are the differences between the09 and 10?
2- why are they a b*tch to find?
3- is the suspension still stiff as they were in the 06, 07 models?

definitely hard to find, i looked yesterday just to see if any were available, and all of them were atleast 2k miles away and selling for 20k to 21 at the dealer(s), makes me think if i should trade mine in or not.

Actually my 09 SS seems like it rides a lot smoother than my 06 SS/SC did. It's not as jarring and seems to absorb the rough patches a lot easier . My 09 is rattle free so it might add to the affect hehe.

I just took a friend for a ride late last night on some twisties out of town and he was extremely impressed that I was doing 100-130km/h on the turns and there wasn't any body roll and it felt like we were riding on rails and the back end didn't skid even the slightest. Needless to say, he was really impressed with the suspension and handling.

Both Sport and crystal are awesome color's . Crystal seems to change color in different light to me ..... where as sport is more constant ..... either color is a WIN IMHO hehe.
