So much money for so little horsepower . . . I dunno. It's defintiely better looking than that trash from earlier, though.

Ok in all honesty, I don't like the ECOTEC in the graphic. But I do like the color outline in the badge.

What I like:
The Badge RS w/ color outline

What I don't like:
Graphics on the side, window, and spoiler.

WTF?:
Keychain

Yay, let the flaming of me begin!

No one should flame you. Now when people say WTF is that you can point them to a package that GM themselves sell. Now you have proof that you have a legimate Cobalt RS. Well sort of.

I don't get it... My buddy that owns a civic took a look at the package and said that is a better investment then a Turbo charger. He said those decals and badges actually create "Wind Tachotrometry", which gives about 90 HP if placed correctly on the car. He said he would make all the Decals at least 12 inches tall though, that way its harder to see and you have to focus on the road more...

Someone decode this for me?

Hell yeah, I can officially say I had the first one. Then GM took my damn idea, except they added some crappy decals, and a keychain.

Is it just me? or does all that stuff on the RS look photochopped?

C'mon GM.

I'd like to find the guy who designed those wheels and slap the taste out of his mouth.

I can't wait to see someone out driving with this kit, just so I can laugh at them.

I dont mean to hate, but that's yet to be seen. I like your concept, but its a little too.... i dont freakin know. I think you're trying too hard... instead of buying one little thing every month... save 3 months and buy one big thing... then every 3 months the people on this site with pat you on the back instead of hate on you everyday.

Don't worry, I'm going to buy some "big" investments during the summer. Just recently, I bought and installed 2 6.5" Rockford-Fostgate Punch door speakers. Then again, I'm not sure if I want performance, because of gas prices. It took me $36 to fill up my car on Sunday (I had the "low fuel" warning on and completely filled the car up, 87 octane)

raiden you did not have the first 'rs' cobalt, because your car is not an rs, it is an ls with rs camaro badges. that would be like someone putting ss/sc badges on a white cobalt and saying they had the first white ss/sc....

^^^What he said.

I just HATE how GM just pissed on th R(ally) S(port) badging by making this and that other RS garbage ...The least they could have done was put the SS na suspension in it and some fog lights, then it would be worth the $230 bucks...

Sorry, but the RS was originally a suspension/apperance package on the Camaro, and now they turned it into a fing decal and keychain set!
