alright going to the dealer this week and there saying i can order a 2009 model??? not an 08 model, have they switched over to building the 2009 already?

also will there be a multifunction mounted A-piller gauge and will there be a new radio system with usb and bluetooth ?



anyone?

 

they haven't even got the 2008s on the street yet so there is no way anyone can order a 2009 model yet. once again uninformed slaespeople strike again

 

yeah i agree but i shows in the gm dealer ordering site its classified as 2009 model not 2008 so its weird ill be at the dealership on Tuesday to see first hand soo ill keep everyone posted

 

thats odd. the chevy site had the ss/tc listed as a 2008 cobalt ss. and my printed order form with pricing and options that i got last month from the dealer says 2008 cobalt ss turbo. i had my 2.4L cobalt built late last june and it was still a 2007. the 2008 models didnt hit the showrooms till about october, i figure they were being built august the earliest. i know some other manufacturers will put out their 2009 models in june or so but chevy waits untill its closer to the acutal year it is to relase their new years models. i guess we'll find out

 

I know i thought it was weird to but ill find out... i got a 05 cobalt ls w/ sport package but i really want an ss tc and especially the first one in my province for bragging rights

im looking at getting carbon fiber bonnet on it cause im getting red w/red interior so carbon fiber will look sick!

 

It seems to me that Gm is putting this one out a little late for an '08 and earlly as an '09.

So let's just call it an 2008 1/2 Turbo SS. I'm not that jelious of it, My stage 2 from what dyno test i've seen you guys post should be right around 250hp, and I don't give a **** about 10hp, I do like the idea of launch control, better half shafts and (clutch?) But I think the No lift Shift is GM's attempt to make driving a stick IDIOT proof. That way these jokers down at the track that can't drive to save there life won't go home feeling bad that there low 14 sec car just ran 16.........

sorry for the rant but I haven't been on in 10months

 

i remember hearing in here somewhere that the no-lisft-shift can only be used in competition mode and the dealer will have to reflash the ecu everytime you use it. im not sure really about the details but if tht is the case i probably wont be using this feature ever. drive real stick shift and master it. no lift kinda sounds like cheating to me anyways

 

As much as I have given thought to trading in my '05 for the '08, I will wait for the '09... Reason you ask? White will be available(with a few other colors), the programmable gauge will be an option, the black wheels should be available, more aftermarket parts, hopefully Stage kits, and I DON'T PURCHASE EVEN YEAR MODELS ANYMORE... The '09 will look very good as a daily driver next to the '09 V SERIES...
