I know that introductions are traditionally made in the Lounge, but this seemed to be the more appropriate spot for me

"Me" is Nate, soon to be proud owner of a spanking new 2009 SS Coupe. And this is no, "...well I maybe sorta would like to have one..." or "...I really wanted this or that but oh well..." meanderings. I spent weeks just picking one out. Hell, if I'm gonna part with 20K+, it's gonna be right dammit

But, my dealer has put up with this fickle a-hole for long enough. The car arrives tomorrow, so I'll be heading that way immediately after work. I'm shooting the entire event on my HP R967, so expect gratuitous pics and vids to follow soon. And no, "...hey look at me here's a half-a** pick of my ride..." or poorly conceived 8-13 second videos. I'm gonna dump the motherload on you fellas

Great site. Looking forward to getting involved...

- Nate

 

lol Nice bro. Can't wait to see the vids!

Welcome!

 

color options/


Congrats!

 

How much did you pay exactly? I really, really.... well you get the picture i effin want one. I've been looking for 7 months. Anyway, i would like to know what a good deal is. Btw did you finance through GMAC's 0%? I am hoping for an out the door price of $22,000

 

if your looking for that around here in socal good luck, because that was what i was hoping for and no luck. best deal i could find was mine i got employee pricing with 0% and a extra 1k of because of my GM card total came out to 23900. i tried to work with like 10 dealerships all around socal most were in the 25k-26k range. sorry for the thread jack

 

thnx. hopefully i'll have a little better luck. im in cencal and 3 dealerships have had the same cars in stock since release, i hope they are desperate... :/

 

Welcome and we will hold you to your witty comments

 

Thanks fellas. Unfortunately, the dealer was booked with deliveries yesterday, so I got bumped to this afternoon Media bits (and exhaustive details) will follow shortly after

Quick look:

• Victory Red Coupe;
• Sunroof;
• High Profile Spoiler;
• Ultralux;
• RPD.

I'll pay $26K out the door, including extended 60/60K (Gold Wrap) warranty and GAP, on GMAC 0%.

See ya this evening

 

How much was the warranty? I balked at $23k out the door but most Cobalts in this area are about $21k-$22k out the door with all of the options. What color seats did you get (ebony, red, or gray)?

 

So you like photography and stuff, then? Can't wait to see the pics and vids.

 

Great choice.

 

vid and pics or ban. your taking too long

 

tell it to the dealer

 

Sorry for the wait fellas. Didn't actually take delivery until Saturday, but did manage to squeeze-off a couple shots before it started raining. Nothing special. I'll post some video and action pix when the weather lets up

Also, it's a little late, but Winged Warrior is coming up Mother's Day Weekend (follow the link for info). I attended WWIII and had a blast. This year, Bull Run Winner Morgan Alsop is joining in! I'm actually competing this time around, so wish me luck

 

pictures look amazing i like how u did the black and white with the red... definatly makes it pop Very nice car... now u need to start moding it... get some charge piping and a exhaust : P ( not commin from a ss/tc i am a redline .... but thats what i would do) u can get some good bang for the buck that way.

 

Thanks for the insight Nick - and for the compliments
