View Full Version : SS/SC's in Norhtern IL
SS SCHGD 06-05-2006, 08:22 PM Hey guys, I saw a bunch of nice cars out this weekend, and the Cobalts are becoming more and more common, but I very rarely catch a SS/SC Cobalt.
This weekend (Saturday specifically) I saw 2. I saw a red one headed West on Route 120 near 12 in Volo, probably about 5:45 or so.
And later on I saw a Black one somewhere between Gurnee and Fox lake, can't remember exactly where though.
Was wondering if either was someone on here?
There is also a Cute girl driving a Black cobalt with a low spoiler (LS/LT) in Sycamore....that anyone here too?
biohazard 06-06-2006, 02:02 AM i live in crystal lake with a modded black base, and there is a red SS about a block down the road from me, idk where the red one lives b/c hes at the house by me once in a while, coulda been him
DWK5150 06-06-2006, 08:06 AM I travel through volo and that area daily but I have lazer blue.
SS SCHGD 06-06-2006, 05:43 PM Don,

Oh just about everything possible. Pulley, ported blower, Hp tuners, exhaust ya know the usual stuff. Working on a different setup for the aftercooler now. Island lake and fox lake about the only thing really happening there is the cruise night at the local dog and suds but thats all just muscle cars. Ask Bio there might be a little more action out in crystal lake. I make it out there as well but not to often.
biohazard 06-07-2006, 01:25 PM i think its a guy, ive never seen him just seen it parked

Wow you have one of the fastest SS/SC around.
Were did you run a 12.98 at? Nice time.
You need to bring that thing to GLD to the next import wars man!
SS SCHGD 06-08-2006, 07:39 PM hey, look at that, there are a bunch of us in the same area, why is it so hard to find you guys on the road? And DWK5150 I'd love to see you run. Where do you normally run at?
EDIPROJEKTZ 06-08-2006, 07:44 PM i looked for a blue one and the dealer said that they didnt make a ss/sc in blue where did you get yours
DWK5150 06-09-2006, 07:52 AM i looked for a blue one and the dealer said that they didnt make a ss/sc in blue where did you get yours
Ray chevy has one sitting on there lot. thats where I got mine from but they had to do a delaer trade to get it from indiana.
DWK5150 06-09-2006, 07:54 AM I just usuually go to GLD. Well I hit my goal and that was to get it into the 12s and I did and well I need some warrenty work done and Rays doesnt like to work on modified vehicles so its returning back to stock for a while. Sucks to cause hate taking everything off.
I go through Northern IL a bit. Mostly Gurnee if anything. But yeah I also go to GLD, so I say we should get as many Cobalts as we can to meet up at the next Import Wars. :)
DWK5150 06-09-2006, 01:26 PM I work in gurnee.
SS SCHGD 06-09-2006, 06:40 PM My G/f has family in Gurnee.....
I got my Laser Blue SS/SC from Classic Chevrolet in Waukegan (the g/f used to work there) but they had to dealer trade for it from Indiana too (almost in Indinapolis)
When is the next Import wars at GLD?

SS SCHGD 06-14-2006, 08:40 PM I saw a Yellow SS/SC in crystal lake the other day, guy waved.
I'm glad I am seeing more and more of you guys. I just need to see who is out here in my area Dekalb, NIU, Sycamore. There are a ton of Cobalts, but no one seems to be on CSS.net
s/cinfiltration 06-16-2006, 03:30 PM Hey guys, I live in Lakemoor. I'm probably the guy that you were talking about with the red one. I live in the apartments right next to Volo...you could throw a rock...What's up? I have friends in CL that I chill with from time to time.
DWK5150 06-16-2006, 03:38 PM I drive through Volo everyday. Have to keep my eyes open for ya.

NightmareSS 06-17-2006, 03:12 PM Right now I live in the Bloomingdale Area and work in Plano and Joliet areas. I'll be moving to Plano in July after my house is finished.

SharpSS 06-29-2006, 10:42 AM Guys, I live in North Chicago, but my son lives in Grayslake & I work in Buffalo Grove. I'm all around Lake County though (Gurnee allot). People notice the yellow BEAST, as I like to call it. I need help with mods though. About ready to do the CAI, but I'm not the most mecahnically inclined. Just went over 8000 on my 06.
Who wants to meet up or help out???
Finally got some bad rental tenants off my back (well almost done) & am ready to put some mods on the beast.

I could give ya a hand with some of the stuff ya wanna do. My part time job is in gurnee actually. I saw a yellow one on monday going down Grand Ave was that you Im guessing?
SharpSS 06-29-2006, 12:06 PM That would be cool!
That would have been me, yeh. I haven't seen another yellow one with a tinted license plate like mine. I like cruisin around in it. Gonna get the CAI in the next month or so.
I assume with a 12.98 time, you have a few extra mods??? Like to hear about them. I will keep adding mods over the next year.

djpatrick35 06-29-2006, 12:34 PM I live in Grayslake and I've seen an orange SS/SC in Mundelein, but there's also a yellow SS n/a that I've seen around.
ChiTownSS 06-30-2006, 04:35 AM Hey guys, I live in Chicago but my parents are out in Barrington, my cousin has a lake house we party at in Antioch and my fiances parents are in McHenry so im out in the northern burbs all weekend. Only seen 2 SS/SC out there, 1 red and 1 yellow (the yellow owner works at a Best Buy and the car is brand new). I drive a black 05 ss/sc stock (for now). Are there any cobalt meets out here or around Chicago? Would be cool to meet other owners.
Gamebay11 06-30-2006, 04:58 AM Hey guys I live in Kenosha, Wisconsin so you i basically belong to northern Illinois. I am planning on buying an orange ss/sc for rockenbach hopefully before the 0% goes away. I frequent Illinois too and if you guys meet up at great lakes I'd love to join. See ya around.
SharpSS 06-30-2006, 11:27 AM Buy it @ 0%. I'm not that fond of the color but don't pass up the deal. I may end up getting a metaalic paint job in a couple of years.
Honestly guys, GM did not perform a top flight paint job on our vehicles. The rest of you guys notice this?
thatguy_247 07-01-2006, 03:07 PM howdy all, just picked up my new cobalt SS from grayslake chevy. i live in woodstock but have friends in CL and cary. already saw another black SS in woodstock the other day. see ya guys around!

EDIPROJEKTZ 07-04-2006, 02:10 PM guys should go to blockbuster in gurnee on friday nights
thatguy_247 07-05-2006, 03:11 PM is it possible to have a cobalt SS with no ground effects and the standard wing? while driving in woodstock the other day i got behind a guy in a silver cobalt with SS tags (no supercharger) but he had the standard non SS wing and no ground effects. also it looked like he had the standard muffler with no chrome tip. is this guy driving a fake SS or what?
ocp04 07-06-2006, 12:38 PM JUST PICKED UP MY 06 SS/SC FRIDAY FOR 0%! COULDNT BE HAPPIER

SS SCHGD 07-06-2006, 10:32 PM hey all, there are more and more of us out here....I just added one more car to our list. We now also own a Red SS/SC we picked up from Ray Chevy in Fox Lake with the 0% thing. We got stage 2 with it. I will be on the look out for more of you guys, and What goes on at the blockbuster in gurnee? I work Friday nights, maybe we should meet up there on Sat night?

Was that the fully loaded one? IF it was that was the one they were trying to sell to me. Not sure what happens at blockbuster but I know fridays nights at mcdonalds is cruise night if I remember correctly as they have a 50s mcdonalds there. Pretty cool been there a few times for cruise nights when I had the nova.
EDIPROJEKTZ 07-07-2006, 01:21 PM ppl get kick out at Mc D's after 10 so they go to blockbuster they are there on saturdays also.
SS SCHGD 07-07-2006, 01:27 PM yeah, That red one had all the options, they had a Blue one that sold before we got there and they had a Yellow one w/ everything that was used too.
I will have to check out the mcdonalds/blockbuster thing one night.
DWK5150 07-07-2006, 03:08 PM The yellow used one is still there. They want to much for it if you ask me. Put down another grand and you can have a brand new one.
SS SCHGD 07-07-2006, 05:03 PM we actually went to look at the Yellow used one, they said they'd take 20 for it, but the payments were still 100$ more a month than the new one we bought. The G/f really liked her yellow car, and is now talking about painting the Red one Yellow...lol
Anyway, the Yellow used one on the lot is a Repo, and they had a aftermarket radio, so the trim and stuff is scratched up, the Sun roof didn;t open, and there were several other scratches too. It did run well with 4000 miles, might have had a tune on it....
DWK5150 07-08-2006, 01:21 AM Its been sitting there a while i do know that mcuh cause they got it right after I picked up my car a couple months ago.
K STYLEZ 07-11-2006, 11:15 AM Spring Grove here as well:)
DWK5150 07-11-2006, 11:22 AM Spring Grove here as well:)

umm, we now have 3 cobalts...More pics to come when it gets nice out.
djpatrick35 07-11-2006, 03:57 PM guys should go to blockbuster in gurnee on friday nights
What time? I would love to get some sort of normal cruise thing going. I learned the addiction of parading around from my dad and his Corvette buddies...now we need something for us young guys.
BTW... Read Lakeland Journals! I write the sports s**t! :lol:
