future of cobalt ss/sc parts

So with canceling of the cobalt what do you guys think will happen to the supercharged cars?
Do you think they will continue to make parts for our cars.
I mean we have had a couple off cobalts blow motors here and they had to wait 4 to 6 weeks for parts.
It seems like the 2.0 is the one with hard to get internal parts.

i believe it is an automanufacturing law that once a vehicle is discontinued, you must still continue to make parts for the vehicle for a minimum of 10 years, so that way they may continue to repair the parts and uphold anyones 10 year/100,000 mile warranty

I think recycled parts, not necessarily brand new parts.

Plus Honda uses alot of their parts on a bunch of different models too.

The parts do have to be made for a certain number of years. But as there were very few SS/SC's made in the first place... expect parts to be very hard to find say... 5 years from now.
