Went to the dealer today to test drive a Cobalt Supercharged SS since I want a new drive to work car. Anyway I wound up BS'ing with the salesman for a long time, he was really cool. He told me he has a fast Duramax lifted and on 35 inch wheels. Says it dynoed almost 500Hp and like almost 1000 lbs-ft torque and re ran a 9.0 1/8th before he did more mods. He then tells me he thinks he can beat my car. I tell him im at almost 500Hp on spray and he takes back the comment. So after he was done we got a really short run on the street from like a 35-40 roll no spray for me. He stayed at my door up till like 60 when I let off cause of traffic and my son was with me, although I was starting to pull harder. Short run, I just thought it was cool that that lifted diesel can keep up, and I loved the black smoke, lol. he says he beats up on ricers all the time and they look amazed, lol. Were gonna set up a real race one day when I get some time. His truck is really badass.

From what I hear, get the LS the SS is overpriced. Cool little cars though.

I want the supercharged SS, although I drove a regular auto SS and it was pretty nice, not too slow for a NA 4 banger. It had a nice pioneer system in it with a sub, sounded nice.

The SS's come in auto? I thought they were just 5 speeds.

For 06 they have an SS and then they have a Supercharged SS. The regular SS can have an auto, the Supercharged SS 5 speed only.

Seems kind of silly of Chevy to name a Cobalt without a supercharger an SS...I mean the SS badge should have some meaning behind it, not just a way to sell more cars.

Yeah kinda sad, the regular SS is nothing to bragg about, lol. Nice stereo though.

Thats funny, knew it had to mean something else cause that car was far from "Super Sport".

I'd buy the na SS and put a turbo on it. I like the different choices on the SS models now, I like buying the car I want instead of buying the car they want me to buy.

I would rather just buy the supercharged model and not mess with it so I can keep the warranty from being void out. They come with a 60,000 mile warranty, only GM car that has a standard warranty with that much mileage.

SS Cobalt...
The Cavalier finally grew up.

IMHO, its in the same category as a Grand L"Am"e, a Vtec, a sunflower, and a Pee On Neon.
