cool vid. he kind of made a pointless statement though when he said "attract someone driving a cobalt ss needing more room" since the new ss/tc will be available in 4 doors as well. The hhr ss is a neat looking car though, but just not for me, no matter what motor is in it. I'll stick with my cobalt ss/sc.

I think it looks pretty sweet, and the top speed is impressive for the fact that it is basically a block on wheels

gives more ammo for the guys that talk crap about the SS/NA cobalt.. since he said in the past some SS cars were more cosmetic than performance..

I had my doubts about the reason in life for the vehicle, then after the ride it surpassed what I thought it was. First time I’ve ever been in a 4 cyl car that kept pulling they way it did even in 4th gear. So unfortunately they aren’t on the street yet but I did take one for a demo yesterday and so far I love the way it drives.

u suck! lol:twothumbs

did they let you DRIVE it :) Grrrr, didn't get to drive it, or even take pics, but riding shotgun was great. I was very impressed with cornering and the lack of any body roll.

Think about what that does for the aftermarket though.

really its a nice little car, but with my cobalt , AEM Cold air intake, Stage 2 and GM performance exhaust and Headers, plus high flow cat, The cobalt ss turbocharged and hhr ss do not have a chance. This is to all my stubborn ss/sc owners.

What disappoints me with the new HHR SS and possibly the new Cobalt SS Turbo is that they come in automatic. Every time I find myself down at saturn to look at a Sky redline or at a pontiac dealership to look at the Solstice they are all automatic. I hope that a manual wont be as hard to find with the new hhr and cobalt ss. relly,are manuals that hard to drive??

And you still won't have the torque of the SS/TC.

DAMNIT!!! I took the bait!!:lol::lol:

On chevys HHR page it says:

# 3 Five-speed manual transmission with short-throw shifter or available automatic transmission

Makes me think the manual in the HHR SS is standard?

you're lucky to run 13.9 with those mods.

i hope you know, even with all that.. you're still not putting down the hp the LNF is, not to mention it has about 25 more lb/ft of torque than you do. the ss turbocharged cobalt will be faster. you need more mods.

And you still won't have the torque of the SS/TC.

DAMNIT!!! I took the bait!!:lol::lol:

that noob got me with that one too :lol:


i'm getting excited for the cobalt ss turbo. probably gonna sell my cobra when it comes out ;)

Your sig is friggin awesome!!! The Cobras are awesome, I've actually had 3 different 03-04 Cobras at my work in the last month for some new tires. You know a car has torque when you can drive the car in a parking lot w/ only the clutch.:guns:

I'm sure if you really wanted to sell you're Cobra, I've got a friend (Blown 4-banger) who will take it off your hands for ya.:lol:

He idolizes the Terminators, almost as much as I idolize the old Goats.
