I never planned on doing any mods.
I found this forum and the bad people on here got me into modding.
When I started modding for power, I never planned to do this kind of project.
Once I got so far in there was no turning back and failure was not an option.
Does that help to explain it?
ok, that makes alot more sense.

I 'got' a Sport Tint Red SS/SC. Well not yet, but it is actually sitting at the lot waiting for me to pick it up. Loved the color. I like red, but personally prefer something darker then the Victory Red, so the STR was perfect for me.

*Thread Jack Alert*

Hey afdude, did you get to listen to any of the songs from 'To the Fallen' yet?

InfinityzeN, what's wrong with victory_red
Of course I just had a wicked idea after reading that comment, white SS/SC

Well, I have a Sunburst Orange SS Sedan with a five speed. I don't think there is much chance of me seeing myself on the road.

My boss, in April, bought a leftover 2006 Majestic Amethyst Metallic SS 2.4L 5spd coupe loaded with black leather and a sun roof. It is actually a really nice looking car if you can get past the purple thing. It listed out at 22k he drove it off the lot for 16k + tax & tags. I guess most people were looking at it like a chick's car but it wasn't moving with the 5spd... I call it the "Purple People Eater" It is the only 5spd SS coupe I have ever seen in that color...

I was bent on buying a Civic Si until he showed me his car and talked me into the Cobalt SS. The only mistake I made was test driving the SC... It was all over after that...

I think that color is sweet. Its not a girly color to me at all. A dealer up my way has a used one with same options less the leather with 11k on it for $17k.

It seems that the sport tint red is big in WA. There is one here in Pullman, WA and see one it seems at every dealer ship I pass. All these different color cars maybe rare on this site, but to people on the street it is just a cobalt, some have that big ass wing and some don't.

I'm pretty sure the idea of this thread was to see what the rarest arrangement of options on a cobalt was.... well at least thats what I thought.

yup, the arival blue 2.4 ss was actually the first 2.4 ss cobalt i saw in person almost 2 years ago. it was actually the first 06 car the dealer got in too. i almost bought it too, the only problem was it was an auto. it was expensive as **** too if i remember corectly... maybe 21k.

yeah i've seen my share of coupe 2.4 autos. I've seen several different ss/sc and only one ss sedan (orange, best sedan color).

but, if they ever made an ss sedan in arival blue with manuall tranny...that would be pretty rare.
