yeah not exactly a gem to look at, my first car was a 88 Mustang GT which i paid 4200 for and i paid for ALL of it cause my parents thought i was too immature and irresponsible to own a car like that...i think they were right 30+ speeding tickets and having my license suspended 13 times later i realized it lol
ok the send the pics. cuz everyone i see is a loud obnoxious, rice burner that makes more noise then power. and looks plain. you guys need style. im sorry if what i got aint ur style. but when u invent a FUNTIONAL hoodscoop for the cobalt..then elt me know id be willing to buy it maybe. stick on is for looks.
UNTILL ANOTHER COBALT AROUND HERE....takes more stares then mine...then its the most attractive. PERIOD. stares can be for good or bad. whatever,. people stare. and wont leave me alone. all of which have been fascinated by it. unlike some of you people

I'm not really feeling the stick-on stuff. Not even I would put on stick on stuff. Especially where you have the SS badge that looks horrible there. PLEASE for the love of god put the SS badge where it belongs. The port poles... this isn't a buick. The interior paint is way too sparkly. I HOPE your a girl with all that "glitter." Why you have FIVE tv's is beyond me. Rims are nice but too big. I'm sure that puts a lot of weight down on your car. Tails look rice. Grill looks like garbage. And you guys call ME rice...... come on now... this guy's car is 20x worse than me I'm nothing compared to this.
If you get rid of the stick on crap, relocate that SS badge, repaint the interior WITHOUT the glitter crap (and stick to one color), get better looking after market tails, get a real aluminum top grille, and smaller less weighing rims, then your car would look much better. I'm not going to say anything about the tv's, except 5 is a little obsessive. Two is really sufficient... And there's no need for a rear view tv. That's waaay too distracting and dangerous IMO.

The car is somewhat decent as a show car. I would have gotten a different style of chrome but the chrome doesnt look horrible. Cobalts can pull the chrome off sometimes. The fender things, yea gotta go but if they werent there the car would look decent. I dont mind the interior but its a little too....orange Maybe a nice two tone theme wouldnt be a bad idea. I wouldnt mind seeing some tinted tails instead of the chrome, would look much better IMO. Otherwise, i like where your going with the car, you have some good ideas.

exterior looks pretty cool imo, but the interior colors just don't match up, i'ld suggest getting the recaros or racing seats for the front and black leather for the rear

I'm 21 sweetie, and you're what? 16? Yeah don't go there. My first car cost $10k, that's a lil less than your dream STI now isn't it? 
and I paid for 75% of that[and I was 17 at the time], which if you do your math is 7.5k, more than you'd be putting down on your "STI" now huh? I'll say the same for the other trolls as I would for you. I have all of my facts straight, because they come straight from your posts.

Hey Trip...don't get a nice car for your first car...it will get fucked up.
If you have a lead foot, get a slow car...it saved my life...an STi is way too fast for a first car for anyone.
Get something dumb...learn how to do dumb stuff right, then get the fast car.

My parents bought me my first car, a 95 Cavalier.My uncle worked at the Chevy dealer so they got it a little over the trade in it was cheap.But that was about 6 years ago and I have paid for everything since then.Wish I would've just kept it.
