I live in Calgary.
As soon as my Mazda 323 gives me trouble I will get a Cobalt.
On an unrelated note I saw my first Cobalt SS yesterday. It was blue and headed south bound on Deerfoot--turned off on Peigan. My 300hp (.......graveltruck...900lbs-ft though) could quite catch it
And if I tire of my Firebird--I'd get an SS (probably the 2.4L one)

You bastard!
I can't believe that you heard it's getting abused like that. Did you have any money put down on it already? As soon as I read that on the weekend I got word to my dealer that I want to know the second it's in to avoid any such situation considering I've got like $5000 put down on it!
Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS, Jase. Come on up to Edmonton, I could use a lift, somewhere,...anywhere,....!
Hopefully, leaving the plant on the same day means mine is shortly on its way. GM told me this morning that they have not been informed of ANY delays with the shipment, so, maybe , this week!!

went to look today.. theres damage from the transport. Basically, when they tied down the SS on the truck, the chains "dug" into the front bumper (lower lip) and created an indent in the bumper. They are waiting for the part to come in to replace it
As for the test drives, the only person thats driven it is the guy that brought it from the truck to the Pre Delivery Inspection spot.
My Shaganappi Rep told me he wont let anyone drive it at all! what a good guy!
oh yea.. btw, ENHANCE, i was told (not confirmed) that we have the only two RED SS's in calgary!

Congrats Jase. Still waiting to get an update on my SS S/C. The dealership told me a couple weeks ago that it was suppose to be built May9th and on the truck soon after. I hope to hear today that it's on its way

I don't think its a 'good guy' thing to not let anyone drive your car.. its your car that you bought, no one better be driving it. Its like if you built a new house and they let people live in there for a while because it was finished early.

Reg Cousineau he just started there about six months ago.. but a really good guy
maybe i phrased it wrong.. its just that he was telling me that certain salesman would actually take the new car to get the plates and such hence driving the car
ive heard of salesman taking the cars for test drives to sell product.
Reg has assured me that he doesnt do that.
Im soo excited!!

Lloydminster
I'm from Lloyd.
I've got the 2nd SS in Lloyd...got it on May 26th.
I work at the local chev dealership and saw the car come in on the truck. I thought "oh, cool, some dude's SS is here" and didn't think much of it. Then I watched it sit on the lot for the afternoon and thought...ah what the hell I ask the sales people about it. Turns out the dude that ordered it ended up ordering something else. So they had this yellow ss come in with NOBODY waiting for it. So I promptly convinced the wife that our '03 Matrix XRS didn't have enough torque and voila. Some dude's loss was my gain.
