In a couple of months she will be 10 and still shines like new.

Nice. How many miles? I washed mine today and it still looks new. 09/08 build with 92k miles. Aside from a wear hole in the driver's floor mat, the interior is still mint, too.

Looks good man! To bad the previous owners didnt take good care of my sedan. But either way I plan on a respray one day to have her looking mint

43,000 miles, and it still smells new. Only drive it about 4,000 miles a year or less the last few years. No winters, and not driven when rain is forecasted. Sadly resale on it isn't much, that's why I doubt I ever sell it. Still have fun it, and getting rarer by the day.

Snail_SS 08-12-2018 11:50 PM

Yeah for some reason my sedan has rock chips where I would of never guessed lol but either way your car looks amazing

Wow that's great miles on both of these!

my 06 LSJ just hit 174k on Saturday. its all dented up with hail damage, rusting a bit on the roof, and its got "police evidence" residue baked into the paint.

but it still runs great!.

I found my paperwork this weekend and I bought my car 5/22/2007. Except it doesn't look nice like yours haha

MINIz guy 08-13-2018 01:46 PM

Looks good! Wish I had found a low mileage example so I wouldn't so charging close to 200k so quickly!

There has been a few low mileage ones pop up on here and facebook.

Enkei wheels are really the best looking wheels on the Cobalt.

I'll see how mine is doing in 2019 before I make that jump for a pristine one. It's hard to accept paying $6k+ for one when I'm <$4k in on mine.

I wasn't always the driver but was always the owner :lol:

There was a tread on here about a year ago. Probably very few at this point. I'm the 2nd owner of mine, got it in early 12. Was owned by a girl before me who thought it was pretty... was all original when I got it.

MINIz guy 08-14-2018 08:09 AM

I'm the second owner of mine too after purchasing in '17 :lol:

jdbaugh1 08-14-2018 08:15 AM

Second owner of mine as well. Bought it with 15,000 miles on it in 2007. Was a great car for College. Glad it was just a base model because it got it's share of parking lot dings, had the passenger side window busted out to steal my gps unit, and even had a roommate back into it breaking the passenger side control arm because he snagged the wheel with his truck bumper.

Mythical SS 08-14-2018 09:27 AM

Original owner here..... from .3mi on the dash with plastic still covering the entire interior...…. to all 162k now. :)

Kolt 08-14-2018 09:32 AM

Original owner of my ls (300mi) minus the used dealer getting it at auction from a gm dealer. On paper im the 3rd owner of my ss but its history is a little strange. I think mine may have been one of the testing vehicles based on the first owners use time/mileage and its has a pilot build code. Wish I could find out more about it.

07blackg5 08-14-2018 10:39 AM

Original owner here
