I read on GM Inside Forums that only 220 SS/SC's were allocated to Canada for the 05MY (they figured they wouldn't sell that well like the SRT-4) but that there are over 1200 pending orders for it. Uh oh.

since when is the srt4 not selling well ive seen quite a few in the toronto area...Chrysler never had plans for the srt4 to be huge seller, they were just trying to squeeze a few extra dollars out of an old model car(the neon) and at the same time try to get something out for the tuner market. There has been too many rumours on how many 05 ss/sc's are allocated for canada...They would not base figures on srt4 sales as the srt4 is an old car, the cobalt is a new car. the lack of ss/sc's in north america let alone canada is simply the fact that they have only one plant that builds the cobalt, they do not have a seperate plant building ss/sc's...the mass majority of cobalt buyers will only buy the regular four door cobalt...that and the actual production run of the ss/sc is going to be really short considering they did not start building the ss/sc till the end of january...there is good amount of demand but nothing in comparison to the new mustang...in Toronto a dealership has a ss/sc thats been sitting around for a few weeks now

agreed--Edmonton has a better track, I have raced there before. It was 0.5 sec faster then Calgary too Although the return road does suck....

Calgary?

All these Calgary boys.......now I gotta represent. E-Town, baby. Sitting up in edmonton waiting on delivery of my Black SS S/C. I ordered it on Dec. 08. Exactly 4 months ago, and it is on it's way. Maybe, it shoud be made int an ALBERTA club. Even if Vancouver is getting its share of Red Cobalt SS S/C's, I hope that mine is the first black, if not the first in Edmonton(maybe Alberta ) If not this should not be the last that the world hears of ALBERTA COBALT CLUB.

Only 1 red one out here and it is sure sweet having it. Right now only 4 other SS' confirmed for this area but none in town yet. I'm getting lonely. Now seeing as I was born and raised in Edmonton I should be allowed to be any honarary member and when I come thru there in June we can have a parade or somethin

Mississauga. Ordered an LS Coupe today (Arrival Blue, auto, sports pkg, sunroof, enhanced audio) with delivery in 6-8 weeks. Those miscellaneous charges are killer though.

Car - $20368 (woohoo for price incentives!)

Freight - $950
Air Conditioner tax - $100
Fuel Tax - $75
Administration - $299
Fuel fillup - $20
GST/PST (15%) - $3381

Finance rate was 3.9%.

Congrats Cricket...

Did you happen to keep track of approx how long the transport took. My car is suppose to be built this week and i'm hoping to get it before the end of the month (Not holding my breath though). Does anyone know if there is any way to get a rush on the delivery.



BTW: I'm all for an Alberta chapter. We should set up a date this summer to go for a weekend drive... head out to Radium... Vernon... maybe even Drumheller
