well guys i had the ss since march and still goin strong with lil problems like, flat tire and that power steerin light come one for 5mins then it away but other then that car is sweet so guys whats ur milage on your car, what u think of it so far....... i took up 210km on the 407 etr it was sweet so guys and girls what ur input on car

 

I'm at 500km
Haven't driven past 150km/hr.... can't wait to test her out once she's a little more 'broken in'!
The only problem so far is: an air bubble in the door insert (the dealer had a new one already on order), the carpet in the trunk isn't 'stuck' on the walls properly, and there's a little dent on the upper rear quarter panel which I'm hoping they can 'push out' from the inside. Of course, only **** retentives like us would ever notice it!!!!!!!

 

where did u get yours,did u get onstar etc........

 

Just under 15,000 for me.

Not really that impressed with all of the "little things" that were supposed to be way better with this car.

Sunroof rattles
Rear deck rattles
Seats look like ass
Seats squeak when cold
Paint sucks *****
Car isn't nearly as tight as when it was new
ebrake light on every once in a while
Still don't have a sunroof switch bezel after 2 attempted fixes. It fell out half an hour after I got the car.

I still love the performance of it, and mechanically its been fine. I'm just dissapointed with all of the other small stuff. I don't want to imagine this car in 4 years.

 

My dealer here in Ottawa picked it up from a dealer in Belleville.
Don't need the onstar, but did get the sunroof of course
I'm actually 100% happy with it, despite the air bubble which will be fixed and doesn't show much anyhow!

I sent you a pic on your hotmail ~

 

well im glad i didnt get know sunroof, i just got a plain cobalt ss

 

^lol, yeah. The sunroof is the cause of 2 of my **** offs.

 

yeah im over 18000 on my 2.2L now. oh well i deliver pizza, what do u expect. other than that, my ebrake light comes on, and the car squeeks when i pull up the handbrake on a hill.

 

Right now I'm just over 1 500 kms and love it, the only **** offs are that there always seems to be a rattle coming from somewhere I can't find yet, and my boost gauge flickers at night.

Satisfied with performance and really satisfied with handling

 

going on 13k and no problems whatsoever

 

Turn up the tunes

Just kidding.

 

I am at 7,700 give you take

I am impressed with the car and I love it still.. But I am disappointed in the little things that have gone wrong for the price of the car.. Also I wasnt impress when I need a new tranny and half shaft at 370km or so...

I think for the price of the car.. It could have been built alot better and with better options.. I mean when you acutally think about it the car is still kind of basic.. I mean the seats should have been heated from the factory.. I mean customer cost is only $300 for the parts for christ sakes... Also I think the seats are junky cause they make ass imprints and such.. But that is the price you pay for leather.

The paint sucks butt... I have some issues with my yellow painted.. The paint doesn't seem the be very thick in some areas. Hard to explain sorry. But I am sure most of you know what I mean..

The lining up of the bodypanels is crap.. I had it had the dealer several times to have the linement fix on my bumpers and hood and fenders... Just CRAP!!!

Overall like I said.. Despite the things I meantioned (and some other things).. I am still happy with the performance and the car in general.. I mean the car was build for the performance and it has proven it.. These things don't make me regret buying it or anything.. BUT I can tell you this.. In 4 years time when my lease is up... I will be switching to a new car that was my plan anywaz.. Every 4 years I will be getting a new car.. Maybe it will be a Cobalt (if its build better) or maybe its whatever new model they have then. But it will not be this particular car..

 

Wow, that sucks.
Maybe you got a 'lemon' ???
It does happen

I'm with ya on the lease part - I switch every four years too.
There's always "bigger and better" by then!

 

24,765 Miles, small issues that got ironed out fairly quickly. Car into storage on Nov 6th. Then I don't drive it till Next March/April(whenever the weather shapes up)

I've had mine since March too

 

8000Km after owning the car for 1.5 months. Yes, I am a mileage king.

Some rattles already every now and then, and the paint SUCKS!

 

13,000 since May...going into storage at end of November thanks god. Got ebrake lite fixed, no other major problems.

 

does anybody know how to fix this rattle on the rear deck, it is comeing from driver side on rear deck like where seat belt goes into it, its killing me!!!!

 

Yea on your rattle issue i had the same problem. Fold down your rear seats and lay on your back. There are to steel clips on the back of the deck lid that attach it to the sheet metal. You just need to find something to put on those clips to stop rattleing aginst the metal. Maybe sticky velcrow

 

Don't break the car in easy, give it lots of revs trust me!!! I broke my car in really hard and it traps 100 mph in the quarter. Break the car in easy and you'll neuter it. As for the rear decklid rattle it is not actually coming from the rear deck, it's coming from the sliding shade. I found that rattle after taking the entire rear decklid out lol! Slide the shade fully closed and I bet the rattle will be gone, opening it all the way and sliding it forward an inch or two fixes it also. This car is what it is, no excuses and goes like stink

 

Hey all !

10K since June and going strong. There may be some rattles in my car,but between listening to the supercharger and blasting the stereo it does not really bother me

As for the break-in, I agree with Ninja. My car found 240 kph the first week I had it
(closed course,professional driver . This car is not better than sex,but it is way in front of what ever comes in second

Steve.

 

3800 miles since July LOL

**** i get the rattle too its drivin me nuts next service there better fix it

 

just passed 24 000 km's since getting it mid-June

 

8100km and had it since late May. Only problems I've had was a leaking gas cap which caused a CEL and the vinyl on the passenger side door peeling back of course . I had no choice but to break mine in easy I was too new to standard (this being my first) and was afraid of busting something up not to mention worrying too much about not stalling it! Still doesn't seem to run bad at all imo and I tend to open it up from time to time just to blow it out...best trap speed it's seen yet was 85.5mph and I'm sure it could push just a little bit more .

wow where did u drive to california and back 6 times........lol
