i also test drove an 07 ss/sc while i was picking up my truck. i was very disappointed. it was making 8-10 lbs. i dunno what its supposed to be tho. didnt have the pickup i expected. and altho it seemed to hit 80 in the time it took me to hit 60 i dont believe its worth the 10,000 extra i paid for my car. altho i did love the handling. thats what i would have bought it for. doesnt lean side to side like mine does and the interior is a bit nicer. had the recaros instead of those flat bottomed pieces of **** like mine does. the shifter i didnt like as much and the clutch is too touchy for traffic. that may have been the flip flops i was wearing effecting that tho. id have to drive another one in shoes to see if its any better. but unfortunatly id have to give it a thumbs down on trading up. im happy with my base pos. not to mention when i got in it and turned the key, nothing. the battery had died while it sat there on the lot.

i have the pin stripes on the side of my car...it starts as one thin line and splits to two..goes around back of trunk and connects...


didn't expect to have pin stripes, but i've grown to like em. i wasn't charged for the pin stripes, i saw it no where on the list price, nore did it add up.


btw about trading in the gto, thats like 720 a year...hmmm, i'd think about it, but then again those cars are nice....

Hey, could you take a closeup of your rims?

Also, do you not have a power dimming inside rearview mirror? I didn't know you could get it without.

I really dont like anything but black on the coupe Cobalts, but black does have its downsides. I think I might have to wait for 08 for a complete redesign but ionna if i want a turbo?

mine is black...its beautiful when its clean, and about a day after until it gets dust/dirt on it. the back bumper is a shelf for dirt...that's the worst part of mine. if i can't deal with the dirt/dust i just give it a 10 minute wash.
