Default Gauging Interest: 2006 Cobalt SS/SC LIKE NEW

Year: 2006
Make: Chevrolet
Model: Cobalt
Price: $11500
Mileage: 41000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): IL
Color: Black
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Front Wheel Drive
LS Engine?: Car has other engine

Well, I got rid of my Trans Am for this car only a couple weeks ago. While it's a very nice car, and is immaculate, I'm just having serious V8 rwd withdrawals. Going from the setup I had in my T/A to this just isn't really doing it for me. It's an '06 Cobalt SS/SC. It's black with red/black interior and only 41k on it, which is pretty low miles for a car that's 5 years old. The guy who had it before me was a stickler when it came to keeping it clean. So, the car is absolutely immaculate and still looks brand new. I actually feel bad driving it back and forth to work, because I'm scarred I'll get it dirty. The car has absolutely no issues at all.

MODS:
-Injen CAI
-2.8 blower pulley (17psi)
-60lb injectors
-Over the Top Performance Stage 2 tune
-B&M short throw shifter
-Aftermarket heat exchanger along with stock heat exchanger
-Clear Image long tube header and catless DP
-Stock catback piping with a Dynomax muffler and Magnaflow tip
-Aftermarket black housing projector headlights with Halos and LED's
-Smoked tail light overlays

As far as I know, these are the only mods. Don't think he mentioned any others when I bought the car. He said all mods were done in the past 6 months after the factory 36k mile warranty was up. This car is extremely clean and looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor. It'd be perfect for anyone who is looking for a clean, reliable DD that gets amazing fuel mileage. I averaged 33-34mpg on the way home after buying it, and 28mpg on my last tank with a mixture of city/hwy driving, with a few spirited runs thrown in. It's a great mixture of perfmance and fuel mileage. Just doesn't suit me that well. Only option the car is missing is the LSD/Recaro seat package. Otherwise, it has the two-tone red/black leather seats and door panels, with power everything, premium Pioneer stereo (factory sub in trunk), and a power sunroof. KBB private party value for the car is right at 12k in excellent condition. I truly believe that it's in excellent condition and you won't find another '06 SS this clean. The car also has ~2k worth of mods. So, my asking price will be $11.5k OBO. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Price change: $10,500 obo

Thanks for the offer. But, not really what I'm looking for. Might just try to sell it outright and buy my old LT1 Camaro back from my dad to play with for a little while.

It was worth a shot atleast. lol. I'm actually really liking the car too. Saving me a ton of money on gas and a payment right now, and a blast to drive. It's still no H/C 6.0 Trans Am though, and it was a hard switch to make. lol

Yeah, and I've been seeing it more and more. I'm thinking it's going to stick around a while now. I hadn't even checked this thread in so long. Just something I always do when I get something new or finish something. Hell, I tried to sell the T/A like a week after it was done. haha. It's hard to keep me satisfied when it comes to cars.

Yeah, either that or you can just ask me. I'm sure I can remember most of everything. Hard to forget what all my money the past couple of years went to. lol

lol. Sounds good man. Just let me know if you do end up wanting to look into it more. Mileage is now at 42,500 by the way, since it's my DD. Also had a minor fender bender the other night. Buddy backed into it. Didn't do much to it, just bent the hood a little and busted the drivers headlight. But, already have the hood and new headlight ordered and it should be fixed by next weekend. Was kinda thinking about keeping it now, but everything's for sale for the right price in my driveway. lol

Alright. Just let me know man. Make sure you drive a supercharged one when you do though. They seem a lot different than the turboed ones. Because I test drove a 2010 turbo before I ended up getting this one. I honestly think the S/C one's are more fun, partially because of the blower whine. lol

Damn it, if it had the LSD and Recaro's it would be gone, ive been looking for one of these for a long time now for a DD, just cant find the right one.. 90% of the ones ive found have been loaned and have been ragged out..

Good luck..

Yeah, I wish it had LSD and the Recaro's. But, from what I hear, they're hard to come by. Not really a big deal to me though. Doubt it'll see too much drag strip action if I keep it, so the LSD doesn't matter. And I love the seats that are in it. They look good and are really comfortable.
