Kooldino 10-29-2007, 08:29 PM Impressive! The new Cobalt SS turbo... http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/28/officially-official-2008-chevy-cobalt-ss-bows-at-sema/ Rosshole 10-29-2007, 09:42 PM that is a big jump in HP, I still don't care though. (I think that they are ugly) Kooldino 10-29-2007, 09:55 PM They are, but that's nearly as fast as the IX is on the ring. Jackygor 10-29-2007, 11:13 PM Definitely impressive! Looks like it will be on par with MS3 silvreclipse 10-30-2007, 12:48 AM that is a big jump in HP, I still don't care though. (I think that they are ugly) :+1:million.i never likde those though they are quick.are they still making the supercharged model. Kooldino 10-30-2007, 07:29 PM No, they dropped the SC model this past year, IIRC. Kansei 10-30-2007, 07:42 PM Yes, because they couldn't get it to pass U.S. emissions testing lol! It's kinda pathetic that the decade+ old FS-DE was a ULEV car in 2002 (Protege5) and was just fine in the Mazdaspeed Protege turboed but a BRAND NEW ENGINE DESIGN from GM couldn't pass emissions tests just a couple years after it was first made. Rosshole 10-30-2007, 08:08 PM that is that fine Detroit engineering. _Chris_ 10-30-2007, 09:02 PM No pricing yet? DaemonSadi 10-31-2007, 02:50 AM Hmmm they got rid of the funky wing from the SS/SC model... Now it looks exactly the same as the regular SS @_@ SpicyMchaggis 10-31-2007, 03:25 AM I'd drive one...back to hertz. Kansei 10-31-2007, 04:23 AM I'd drive one...back to hertz. kinda like I did with the G5 coupe rental I had..but to Enterprise --on a bent and flat donut, shredded tire and bent wheel in the trunk, hubcap missing, warped front rotors. I swear I didn't abuse the thing that much, just a string of unfortunate potholes and other road hazards on my way to drop off the car. They didn't change enough about the normal cobalt/g5 to make the SS a decent car --seriously, they would have to change everything. The whole interior, every last bit of it (well I can't say the carpet and floormats were terrible), the overly cautious and bland exterior, the rear suspension setup, the engine noise that plagues all GM cars, 4 cyl or 6.. the "you are an idiot so we're going to do it all for you" crazy complicated electronic systems, .. just everything. they put fresh lipstick and a thong on a diseased hooker and called it a day, and now she has a new lung transplant and I'm supposed to hit that shit? no way man _Chris_ 10-31-2007, 10:27 PM Heres the video.... http://honda-portal.com/honda-videos.php?video_id=703 | |
