It is pretty boring, but I figure someone who is looking to buy a cobalt would appreciate a video of mostly normal driving.

I don't, I will get some tomorrow. A bracket on the hood gave the top of the pipe a good scratch unfortunately

There are some fitment issues with the Injen but nothing a little bit of tweeking can't fix.

Yup, I thought I'd put it in there because the video is pretty boring. You need something to distract you.

I used my fujifilm s7000, it's really just a still camera with a video mode, I don't think it supports that feature. I think it was because I opened the right window to let the sound a little more. I may do a video tomorrow of some twisty roads, I'll be sure to keep that window closed.

i see that there is a sun roof ... why not just put that into the cocked position (when it is up and not rolled back) this way you can get some road noise
