saw a 08 sport today
Here's a couple of pics taken from chevrolet.com:


It appears as though it doesn't even have a Sport badge on the side, and the one on the trunk is very subtle. Plus, this is now being described as the high profile spoiler:

"Add to the aerodynamics of your Cobalt with this available, dealer-installed spoiler. It's the same one you'll find on the Sport. Or, make a more subtle statement with the low-profile rear spoiler (not shown). Available in four colors or primed to paint."
......So I'm just all confused...

Saw an 08 g5 gt today,black with all options,still not as fast as me.LOL!! it was sold to a local guy name of Todd,left him a note to look up www.g5gt.net
I've tried Marin007, but these are the only pics of a 2008 Sport I've been able to find. It's a pity they're not larger, but the Chevrolet Canada website is still showing pics of the 2007, and Edmunds is passing off pics of a 2005 as an '08!
It's really pathetic how little these pictures are updated...

I bet it dosent have a nifty badge on the interior trim either.
Typical GM......rather than redesigning an aged design (hell, Subaru redesigns their Impreza/WRX every 2 years, lol) they just re-badge instead......

Can anyone find out the part number for the badge. I tried calling the dealer parts department and they basically told me to F off and find them a part number. I dont know where to look. Any ideas?
The sport coupe now comes with ebony seats with the red inserts as well. I think now chevy is trying to directly compete with the scion tC.
Also, cna anyone find a close pic of that badge?

Yeah, but its lame that GM is taking a current car (2.4SS), re-rabadging it and trying to pass it off as something new.
3-4 years is a while bro. Look at all the other sucessful cars that had their image revamped within 3 years or less. Examples such as Impreza/WRXs, RSX, Civics, Tiburons, Lancers......all have at least cosmetic changes such as a diff front facia (3rd gen Tiburons had diff front facias from 03-04 than 05-06, but same body style) or headlights/tailights (like the diff between 03-04 Civics from 05-06 Civics, once again, same body style) within 3-4 years. The Cobalt is merely getting some new badging. Whoopee. People like change, and people like Cobalts, so people would likely like an ever changing Cobalt. Just my 2 cents.

Yep, it's practically impossible getting a part for your car that wasn't stock when you bought it after the fact. Give it a few months and I bet they'll have them on eBay.
.... they are redesigning it just not this year they are putting in the LNF maybe 2009??? idk the exact date
I saw a Sport Sedan at the dealership today and i really did think it looked kinda funny. Maybe its just cause i like the SS badge and history better than sport...or maybe its just that i think SS "sounds" faster than sport lol. All it is is a badge that says sport, with a red, stylized "s" at the beginning. Kinda disappointing for me...but hey, the General knows best right?
