Hey guys I want to get your opinion on this. I found this Cobalt SS/TC on ebay and I'm thinking of going to the dealer to take a look at it. Does this sound like a good deal?

I also have the vin here, so if anyone could run the vin for and tell me what this car is about that would be perfect.

Thanks,
Jim

 

sure does

 

i think that was the dealership that had the wind/ hail damaged ones...

so it doesn't have any exterior warranty if i remember

 

I also had another question.... Does anyone know If I might be able to use my discount on this car? Since I work at Advance Auto Parts, I get discounts from different Manufacturers. The discount I get from G.M. is 10% above what the G.M. employee's pay.

 

We've got two down in Sounther Indiana at my uncles dealership.....one blue with 8k miles and a yellow one with 3k for under $17k. U prolly don't wanna drive down that far though.

 

I found an 09 near me for the same price

 

GM company car , prolly a tester or something .

Hey Jrcz, did you ever wind up getting on Columbus Racing?

 

mines a wind damaged one runs fine dooo iiit

 

Hey Rukkee, Thanks for the Info on that. That good info to have.

 

NP glad to help out.

 

I just thought of something, Does anyone know if its possible to disconnect the Onstar feature? The reason I ask is cause I don't think I like that feature too much, cause I think Its like a Tattle-tell device like truckers have.LOL Also do all of the Cobalts come with the Onstar feature?

 

Yeah all 08's have it. I wouldn't worry about disabling it... what illegal **** are you doing?

 

Nothing Illegal. I just don't like the fact that the Gov. can basically find out your every move and location with a device like that. At least thats what I've heard from some people. I also heard that they can find out if you have your seatbelt on or not and find out if your speeding as well. LOL

If any of this is false please let me know, cause I don't know that much about the Technoledgie of these newer vehicles.

 

just dont renew it thats all

 

Oh, so its a feature that you pay for, for "x" amount of time and then you can choose to renew it or not? If so thats cool.

Thanks for the info.
