Getting ready to sell the Cobalt

Ok like the title says im getting ready do sell the SS and im wonder why the hell thesis two cobalts are the same price? http://www.autotrader .com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=198655979&dealer_id=75958&car_year= 2005&search_type=used&make=CHEV&model=COBALT&dista nce=0&address=48038&advanced=&certified=&bkms=1144 070957764&max_price=25000&min_price=1&first_record =26&end_year=2007&start_year=1981&isp=y&pager.offs et=25&lang=&cardist=218

and this one
http://www.autotrader .com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=194243637&dealer_id=923314&car_year =2006&search_type=used&make=CHEV&model=COBALT&dist ance=0&address=48038&advanced=&certified=&bkms=114 4070957764&max_price=25000&min_price=1&first_recor d=26&end_year=2007&start_year=1981&isp=y&pager.off set=25&lang=&cardist=1159

and i was also wondering how mutch i should put my red cobaltss/sc up for sale? it has 6050 miles, no dents,dings, brand new tires and next to no clutch ware. and i was also wondering if i should leave the CAI on or if i should sell it with the factory one and the same with the projectors i just installed.

thanks to any one that can help!

Excuse me please. Why. You are not the first, it seems to be becoming an epidemic. Is it just the power? Please forgive me because I think it looks to like a pontiac family car, not a muscle car. Perhaps I remember what they used to look like and I am jaded, so fill me in on what I am missing besides the wonderful gas burning power. Thanks

I wouldn't start assuming what I think your assuming. I got to school fulltime as well and I pay for my cobalt ss + insurance completely on my own. Don't get me wrong though, a GTO is going to run a lot more than my cobalt ss, even the insruance will be higher, but still. I hate when people see my car and I tell them I got to college full time. First thing that comes out of their mouth is "wow mommy and daddy must love you"

If i were you i would try to sell it to an independent owner not trade it in, you will tend to get a better deal. a person looking specifically for this car would be willing to pay more probably about 2000 less than you paid for the car, and a private owner would be willing to pay more for the cai. If you trade it in look at getting about 3000+ less (depending how bad the used car dept puts you over the barrel) and if you trade it in take off the cai and sell it on ebay or to a friend

screw a gto, its a disgrace to the OGs... its not a goat.. its a grand prix.. GM couldnt even be original enough to build a new chassis that had to get the holden and swap badges

i cant wait for the GTO to be shutdown so the new chassis can be built for the new camaro

I was thinking of getting a GTO if I got a check for my wrecked cobalt. The 05s have about 400 HP I think and run in the 13's. So I thought to myself, "self, our cobalts are starting to break into the 13's too, so why not stick with the cobalt" So I think I will. Oh and sell the intake and projectors seperate, and put stock parts back on, you will make more money that way.

If you were planning on buying a new 400hp car... and were saving 16 grand in the bank.. why would you go out and buya new car jsut to trade it in... why not buy a beater and save even more.
