Hi Jase,

Thank you for your interest in the SS Cobalt Coupe.

At this time, the SS Cobalt is not available as we anticipate its arrival in June. But in the meantime, here are some features that you might find interesting.

The 2.0 litre engine will produce an incredible 205 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque for your driving pleasure. Couple that with 18-inch alloy wheels and you'll have a vehicle that turns heads. The interior features leather seats, leather steering wheel, and a 228-watt amplified sound systems that features a 10-inch subwoofer with both CD and MP3 players.
You'll also enjoy the four wheel disc brakes with ABS.

So, these are just some of the standard features you'll enjoy when you own this car.

Please stay in touch with me and I'll give you a call when this car arrives on our lot.

If you have further questions, please call me.


so basically they are telling me i cant get one til june.. yet you guys are getting yours already

i think im going to have to talk to him and find out whats going on

getting my SS

i lucked out with my SS as my factory order was light years away from reality BUT the dealership was alotted 1 SS\sc and it was just the way I ordered mine. I told them that I was ready to cancel as I found another dealer who was allotted a black(yellow inserts)one and i was ready to buy that 1. My dealer decided to put my name on their allotted SS and it will be in at months end.

Word on the forum is GM Canada didn't order/project enough SS/SC sales and they filled their estimate in 2 months (like Dec 2004).

So unless you can find one at a dealer don't plan on ordering one and expecting it any time soon.

I have been waiting since the beginning of Sept 2004 for my Cobalt SS/SC.

Sorry

I got the sunroof with the Pre Order promotion back in Sept/Oct 2004. Otherwise I wouldn't get one. Never had one before so I hope I like it.

Don't Worry, we are all in the same boat here in Canada. The only people getting the car are the ones buying them off dealerships lots. Every other pre-order car is being pushed back and back, or not being built till June.

I wonder if they think you mean the non-supercharged SS?

But it doesn't make sense to say the SS (Supercharged) arrives in June, since they're already on the lots now.

You may be right that certain dealerships are getting their orders faster than others, but I doubt it. No one that I have talked to in Calgary seems to be expecting any for quite a while. CMP told me a couple weeks back that they have, I think it was, four allotted, but don't expect them, or my pre-order for quite some time. Maybe, if it takes long enough, they will offer it as a 2006 with more standard options, and if i'm lucky, they'll be offering the LSD and Recaro option here.
