Well if you have all this stuff why not post it up so people will shut up? You havent posted proof of anything yet, the car, the times, the dyno sheet, nothing! Hell in the single digit section you claim 9.8X at 139, then in this section you claim 9.8X at 138. Which is it? So you run 9's without a cage? in a 6spd, no nitrous, all motor? BS! Prove it!

just wondering if you know...the supercharged cobalts REQUIRE synthetic oil...i cant specifically remember which one it recommended. we had one in the shop recently and it took 6 qts. prepare to spend a bundle on oil changes.

Yes i used to own one. I had a 2005 SS supercharged. I got pics in my sig. They reqiure Mobil 1 synthetic. The oil changes for that car were just as much as my corvette. Whats funny, its only a 4 banger, but holds 6 qts of oil

How much was your insurance on it?? im just looking around and i found an 06 model for 19k brand new. only like 70 miles on it.. Im not really worried bout the oil changes bc i dont care . it would get synthetic whether it callled for it or not also 93 octane. its just how i am. Ya im looking at a $350 month car payment then whatever insurance is so thats why i am wondering. Bc i still have to have mod money for the LS1 HAHA.

Well i had my Mom as the "primary driver" and me as the 2nd. I cant remember exactly, but it was under $100 for full coverage. Its a 4 cyl so it shouldnt be that much. I also have a clean record though too. I would recommend buying one! I loved mine, and hate that i sold it

Well the car is going to be under my name (so i can start my credit) so i think i have to be the primary driver right? I know my mom said that she will prob just add me as a 2nd driver on her policy. I did a quote for the bird and the cobalt and it came out to be like $1800 for 6 months . right now its only $77 for the bird for a month..

Where did you get that quote? Go to Allstate.com and do an online quote. I did on my new truck and they beat geico by over $300 every 6 months. Plus they have accident forgiveness and the good driver thing to where each year you have no wrecks or tickets your deductible goes down $100. Guy told me on the phone they pretty much blow everyone out of the water in this general area. Worth a shot. My truck, bike and car is $1182 every 6 months. Also have a clean record. Thank the lord for driving school..

Ya well **** happens just gotta roll with it. Im sure it wont be too bad once i give the insurance comp. a call and tell them what im doing. Ill prob set my trans am as my daily and the more expensive cobalt as the garage queen so it will be cheaper bc the ta is worth less than the cobalt sadly

The cobalt will have to have full coverage because it will be financed just fyi..Id put the TA on limited liability (sp). Saying you only drive it like a couple thousand miles a year.

ya im going to do something like that ill just have to check around to see how i can get the best price. I know about the full coverage thing thats no problem. I just want to make it the lowest price for full coverage. Ya ive only put 5k miles on my TA in 3 years lol. So something needs to happen with the insurance price. Oh and im bout to sale the LT1 if you know anyone that is interested lol. Im bout to replace the oil pump, and it just got a new ignition switch. Im gonna try and get 3gs for it. If any1 can get me more than 3gs for it they can have anything thats over the 3k mark..

I would recommend the Cobalt SS/SC. You get a fast car, but still have great gas mileage. They look cool and are fun to drive. Plus the 2 tone interior option is amazing. The only reason i got rid of mine, i was tired of waiting for the stage 2 package from GM to come out, so i traded it straight up for the Corvette.
