As predicted here is the 2008 HHR SS with the next cobalt SS 2.0 Turbo DISI engine!

GM PERFORMANCE did a great job!

Mods feel free to move this but it is a cobalt...sort of same chassis....



looks like Cobalts can get a 30 psi gauge if they want

 

wow, is it possibel to get any more plastic under that hood?

good find!

 

why are they hiding the turbo?

 

its in the back hhr cowl hides it for them

 

Those seats look like they would grip much better than the cheap stock ones that come with the non g85 ss/sc... There is no cheap leather to wrinkle... lol

and hopefully they do something about that shitty looking tach. Looks like a cheesy watch or something...

 

GM's not gettn my money

THey may put out nice lookn vehicle, with good HP #'s
but if this thing is built like a cobalt

you wont see em on the road in 6 years
(*ima hater) lol But the seats do look nice!

 

Predictions were wrong.

There is no 2008 turbo Cobalt SS.

So get your SS/SC's NOW peeps, while you still can!

 

thats because its not coming out until 2009 dipshit.

 

that interior is ****** hot

 

not a big fan. they were sayying that they didnt want to put the ss on any chevy car, just the ones that were "worthy" of getting the ss emblem. so they put it on a pt cruiser instead. gay

 

Those seats are sexy as ****. Think they'll be a direct fit..?

Edit - Guess not since they are POWER, duh .

 

looks nice

cant wait to see them out

 

how much will they retail for?

 

am i the only one that thinks stuff like the HHR and Caliber are ugly as sin? nothing about the exterior of these things is appealing to me. When I buy a "fast" lol car I want it to look sporty not like a soccer mom mobile.

 

there arent going to be anymore ss cobalts of any kind after 07. the sale adds at work already show the 08s to be a cobalt sport package, with a 2.4 liter. sorry to burst your bubble but there arent going to be any turbo cobalts, even in 09

 

that shifter sure looks familiar

 

I prefer the look of the HHR to any Minivan made. And the panel version in an SS wouldn't be a bad looking vehicle. Sure, it wouldn't be a coupe, but it wouldn't be too bad of a compromise, either.

 

GM took the time to design the engine then put it into a POS. Typical.

 

nope , not in 09 ........this spring......quote me

 

orly?
I, for some reason, seem to believe you.

 

i love the seats man

 

In 2008 as chevy stated there will only be a Cobalt LS/LT and Sport... Whiel as they stated they work on a relaunch of the new cobalt SS platform in 2009.

 

Quoted for truth. As I've said on several other threads, I expect Cobalt SS Turbocharged to be announced at NAIS or Chicago show and be available by next summer.

After nearly a year of these threads, I think it comes down to the fact that a lot of current SS/SC owners don't WANT there to be a Turbo Cobalt. But the evidence has been around a long time and the fact is if the HHR has a turbo, the Coballt will too.

 

Heh, are you on crack or something?

Hold off on the name calling until you are at least 10 or 12 years old. Because you're only embarrassing yourself in the meantime.

That being said, claiming that a certain option will come out in "2009", "2010" (or any other year for that matter) is childishly lame.

If it's not yet in production, then it's mere conjecture. And nothing else.

And if you stop using drugs whacked-out-coby, you'll find that your attitude will have greatly improved ...
