hey just wondering what u guys think of the new cobalt ss turbo!!
sounds fun looks great i love the way it looks and just wanted to know what u guys think!! 260hp not bad huh!!

The wheels are ugly IMO, but the numbers are impressive. My friend has an SS SC and it's pretty quick. I bet the SS TC is blazing quick.

I wouldnt...

237whp
248lbs trq

Take very well to mods and there's already tons of aftermarket support out there for the cars. They suck for handeling, but excel in their class in all other aspects.

Go read cobaltss.net for more info. There's TONS of information to be had there.

and Trinity, GM's broke... along with the other big 3 car companies. That's probably the best move they've done thus far. Cut out production in cars they're having troubles with selling and cost a decent amount.

I laugh the day the American car makers go out of business. Teach them to build nothing but SUV's and ugly ass over-priced cars that don't last worth a damn.

I don't believe that. I think it did the "ring" in a great time... Isn't the rear suspension in the turbo different than the SS/SC?

Heres a summit white one. 4 door. Looks like a damn Neon from the rear!

^^ that is a hot ride.

When I say handeling, I think among the lines of Auto-X

I'd never take a cobalt autocrossing. Too many horror stories of snapped axels.

i don't wanna auto x the pt either lol.....

the SS/TC is a great car. It feels a bit cheap in the construction, but when you look at it from a performance stand point there are very few cars that can compete.

It looks like an Aveo from the rear.

wait the white one isnt 09 is it? pretty sure they have different tail lights thats one of the old 2.4na ss with the tc rims?

Well GM was smart and now offer the SS 4 dr as a turbo not as a 2.4 NA

I have a Cobalt SS NA and noticed that it does feel some cheapness to its interior. Lots and lots of plastic goodness... It does makes up with the seats and dash layout though.

I also would say that the Neon has a better sound of solid "thud" when you close the doors. The Cobalt doors make a thud sound like the Ford Focus doors. Kinda like a sardine can lol.

Overall though the Cobalt is a great car for the price and performance. I wish a 2gn car had a 2 door version.

So they come with those shitty taillights? Or is that white sedan above not the SSTC? I much prefer the skyline style round lights from the previous SS.

And I too heard that the SSTC is quick at Nurburgring. Apparently the suspension was reengineered for racing, and is worlds better than the old SS setup. The old SS felt heavy and tall when cornering, IMO. It lacked nimbleness like the Neon has. The SS was also a bit too luxurious for me, which probably had a lot to do with the increased weight. The coupe is longer AND taller than a 4 door Neon, and a bit narrower as well, which is silly IMO. A sports car should be flat, wide, and as short as possible to cut down on weight and BS.

coupes get round tail lights

sedans get shit lights.

Oh, no I meant the one Trinity posted about GM's performance division going on standby. GM just cut pretty much all of their internships. About 10% of students at my school are now out of a job.

i dont like the cobalts personally but the turbo one run pretty good but if i was to get one it would be a 4 door for sure

yes its an 09, and yes it has the same motor as the coupe and supposedly performs better than the coupe. (Saw a magazine article talking about the different styles)
