Future Purchase

As of right now I am a college student at the U of Pittsburgh as a MET major.

Soon after graduation in 2010, my main goal, after landing a job, is to purchase a SS/TC, but they will not be brand new ne more. Since 09 is the last year.

So what is the best way to know, when i purchase one used, that the car is equpped with a lsd and other options avaiable?

ps i cant believe gm is going to terminate the top selling car in the hard times we they are in at the end of 2009 thats bull.

The VIN number which is printed in the windshield provides information about the car. Post it up here, and someone will be able to tell you all options and prior services on the vehicle.

GM is replacing the Cobalt with the Cruze, which appears to be a superior vehicle in most respects. There will likely be a 2010 Cobalt so chill.

Assuming GM itself isn't terminated by 2010.

Perhaps. From what I've read the Cruze doesn't come to North America until 2011, meaning Cobalt will likely continue through 2010, though production is moving to Mexico.
