Cool Door 2 Door w/ Toyota 2 115!

At a rural 4 lane intersection leading out of town today, a Toyota pulled from directly behind and staged to my left. On green, I pulled away from the light, then floored my 2.4 NA 2007 Cobalt SS auto as the fairly new Toyota 4 door started to pass.... he had a bit of a lead and was maybe his front wheel at my front bumper but was held there until I let off at 115...

Don't know the year or model of the Toyota.... I had my window down and couldn't hear a BOV or SC whine, just my K&N intake sucking 40 degree air.... he most certainly saw the SS badge and wing (low) on my Cobalt and either figured it an easy kill (NOT!) or a SS/SC to try.

Still holding my own.... "ya got to know when to hold em, and know when to fold them"

It might have been a Corolla.... I saw one yesterday that looked like the car that I went door to door with.

Yep, it was probably a 2005 - 2006 XRS.... given how it ran door to door and the XRS quarter mile times 15.8, HP - 170 and weight 2650 .... all pretty close to a 2007 Cobalt SS specs.
