If you look around at dealers there will be one that has everything that you want. No need to order one the way you want since there is only a few options and most of them have all the options.

Most on dealer lots have been test driven and thus beat on before being properly broken in. I'd order if I were you... I did and now have no concerns about what was done to my car before I picked it up (with 5 miles on the clock, including the PDI).

Order one...

If no factory "holds" or constraints on an option you want..4 -6 weeks tops! Order what YOU want instead of the on lot "test-drive" machines.

Excatly the cobalt I test drove, had been sitting there for a few months, with no fuel in it. we tried to get it started, it was running on fumes and the engine had a horrible rumble.

For example the car I test drove, I really gave that car a beating... lol

I would order also, they are telling me for a
09 Cobalt
No Sunroof
LSD
RPD
USB Radio
10-12 Weeks

I can easily pick one up, but they all of sunroofs & hardly any have RPD...

This is the RPD as it boots up, you can program it for a bunch of different things. I like it, a fun little playtoy.
