I do agree some people are crazy.

Two years ago i saw a SS/SC (thecaptians) 06 with decent mileage go for 19,000

Anything possible.

In the world of sales, What somethings "worth" is how much someone will pay for it.

SS/SC cobalts are still selling for 13-15,000 here on Kijiji, Which blows my mind. lol.

 

No they are asking 13-15. I highly doubt most are getting that haha. Look at pierres car. 09 ss/tc with like 35k on it. He had that thing up for sale for over a year and ended up letting it go for $14,500. But like you said, anything is possible. As long as time isn't a factor.

 

Thats exactly it. Ill put it up for 19 and expect 17.5-18.5 over the summer.

Ill put new tires on, powdercoat the rims. FIX IT UP. and have my good friend jeff make the trunk filled in.

With all the mods and such, 30 MPG with 300+ WHP. Some 18 year old kid with dads money will jump at it.

Hopefully anyways.

Or i keep driving it and oh well slap a big turbo on it so it hides the pain of me driving a Cobalt :P

 

Do this!!!!!!! There's nothing wrong with driving a Cobalt. But if you are going to ditch your Cobalt for anything atleast make it a V8 lol. Your car in it's prime is one sexy unit.

 

umm, what's your mileage?

there are minty SS/TC's here sitting unsold for less than that;
in order ot get that kind of money for a (then) 3.5~4 year old car, it's going to have to have ultra low mileage, and be beyond mint...

BTW, you probably don't want to know what I paid for mine in February 2010...

No! ~ if you do that, then how will I seem unique

imagine this;
arrange meeting up with Vince for one of his dyno days, with everything figured out, and the EFR in tow (maybe only bolted on the day before the dyno)...
then again, I do have a tendency to drive my car a little...

 

I have 20,000 miles. Low considering thats a trip to calgary, saskatoon and regina.

2/3's is highway

 

you know ill take care of you and your trunk...i always do

what about your drivers side lol

 

Hey blue

You were going to do your clutch right? I have a new Fidanza flywheel that I'm looking to sell if you want to do that at the same time. $275 shipped.

 

Ya I gotta swap my clutch. It's not shot but won't hold launches anymore. I'm going to do it in the spring using a buddy's hoist. Should make it much easier. I still do need a flywheel but not sure of I want to drop that kind of coin on a fancy one haha.

 

That i will probably claim through autopac.

 

HOLY ****

Wii's with mario kart are 119 dollars at best buy till sept 22

and XBOX 360 250 g black version are 189

 

wow!

I would have expected at least triple those kms (no offense) ~ I rolled passed 46 recently...

oh? didn't know this was a game one could buy... thanks for hte heads up!

 

46,000 miles?

 

no, no, no... we're all canadian ~ that's KM's

I just used common lingo ~ as Inormally do;
plus I think that asking "how many kilometers your car is at" is wayy too long winded when you can just ask for "mileage"

 

Well Jordan said 20,000 miles. Jordan you in miles or km's?

 

see, I missed his use of the word "miles" ~ maybe this comes from driving cars that all display Miles, but using KM info;

unless otherwise noted the term imile isn't literal for me... maybe I messed up by initially asking for "mileage"?

 

5:00 A.M. and can't sleep worth a **** so I begin trolling some forums. Well, CobaltSS.net chat link just brings me back to the homepage. Couple of drinks deep, I was hoping to waste time in chat. Lol.

Meh.

Is the Cobalt SS/SC burnt orange the same as that on a same age Corvette? Way too lazy and lacking sleep to google that.

 

I love it

 

yes.

 

Hahaha

Mines in mileage, since PSI is easier to read then KPA (Tire pressure sensor)


I don't drive my car much


holy ****

my company made a mistake paying for my drinks at a golf tournement ....


fooolish..someones getting wreekched tongiht

 

Well boys car is in the shop and will be ready monday. So consider this fair warnin that a Yellow demonized cobalt is gonna be tearing the streets of weinerpeg up as I get my long awaited fix of whine!

 

Be easy on it for the first 1000k.

 

Care to clue a 'Winnipeg tread lurker' in?

There's one local who's having some fun with his car ~ but you might have surpassed him...
There's another guy (not local, but occasionally meets up with the locals) who recently installed a TVS...
There's not one local tinkering on an LE5 car... (well, there's one guy just north of town who did this cool build... but he never comes out)
There's not one local tinkering on an LNF car... (well at least not for now )

In this past year there have been a couple write-off's (both local and not), and sales;
but for the most part, this scene seems to be dying out a bit.
I'm hoping to see a bit of a resurgence;
so until then I like to know what's happening on other locals...

especially my own beloved winter-peg
(never heard of weiner-peg ~ makes me think gagging while on one of my many drives by the maple leaf plant on Lagimodiere...)

 

I hear ya. I got into the Cobalt scene a little late apparently haha. It's wierd cause I see modded Cobalts all over Winnipeg but theres like 5 people in the Manitoba forum lol.

 

Just getting the clutch replaced. It was slippin so bad it wouldnt build boost or let the cruise control stay engaged.

Dustin looks like Cory needs his clutch done too, bumped into him this weekend. LOL the summer of Cobalt Clutch Destruction.
