Buying aused SS/SC in 1 hour

I'm buying a used 06 Rally Yellow SS/SC with 7,700 miles on it at 4pm today. G85, Sunroof, side airbags and XM for 17,750. I'm super pumped about finally getting a blown cobalt! Anybody have any tips? The tensioner pulley is making a little racket but both the dealer I'm buying it from and my mechanic at another dealer looked at it and said it was "normal".

I know. At least I have that. They changed the tensioner pulley but the noise is still there. I was reading another thread where they changed the timing chain too. Hopefully thats it because I dont want my car to make crappy noises.

Thanks. Yeah I owe 17,500 on my car and they gave me 12,750 in trade. What really made me want to get this car is going from a 72 mo loan on 8.9% interest to a 60 month loan at 2.9%. GM has a special going on. GM Certified used vehicles you can get that low interest rate... Which REALLY helps them sell new cars

I have never driven the 2.4, but I did jump from the 2.2 to the SS/SC, and as he ^^^ said, you will absolutely LOVE the difference.

Don't worry. I havent even hit any boost yet and I absolutely LOVE this car!!!! I'm babying this thing for a while.

Also with 1500 down and an extended warranty 5 yrs 100k miles (other stuff too not just the powertrain) my payments are 412 a month for 60 months.

^^^ How much did you put down?
because that payment over 60 months with nothing down would say you have pretty good credit.
