Few things i'd like to sterotype on it

Red grills i'd say is a younger person kind of mod.

Traded in at regent, leads me to believe it was a transconna younger person.

Those along lead me to think its been abused.

20,000 is to high anyways, I wanted 20,000 for a lightly modded well maintained cobalt in 2010 when it had low KM's


I have 21,000 Miles on my 09. Winter stored, Mostly highway.

Right now, there is slight side damage, Window is cracked and a few other issues. I would have it completely fixed up at my expense before selling it.

I am actually looking at a Jeep tonight.

If you plan on modding a SS/TC mine would be the direction to go, If you want a stock DD you can find them in canada around 14-20 depending on the KM's and such.

The neat thing about that link you posted is that the RPD is very very rare in canada.

Ummmm FYI Jordan, you are a younger person. So should I stereotype you have done nothing but beat the **** out of your car? Even though you look at it and it looks like hell and has seen 330whp most of it's life. I would say your car has seen a much harder life than a 2010 stock TC with 11,000k

Personally I do not care what people think of my car. It has been treated well in its life, Maybe thats why it has 330 whp and has ZERO mechnical issues?

330whp that has hardly ever been taken to redline. 4 Times down a track and regular oil changes.


I would never buy a car that has been riced out.

You can now keep your opinions about my car to yourself, As i don't share mine about yours.

So I managed to grab a few more pics of the car yesterday in the light. I cannot see them not writing it off but what do you guys think? With a quick (very rough guesstimate) I was thinking 7500+ worth of damage, just from what damage can be seen.

It came off that way.

I understand were you are coming from

But if you were to look at a stock vehicle, a tastefully modded vehicle and a riced out vehicle which one could you "assume" was treated more poorly then the rest?

Is that to say they all are? no.

Sorry man I guess it came off wrong. Ur car doesn't look like hell but I just meant the things u need to fix up on it. Look at some of the taste people have on this site where you go "ewww" doesn't mean he beats his car. Like u said there's things you don't like about my car. Everyone has their different tastes. That's all I was really trying to say

It was fixed. Now its back.

But i know exactly what the problem is i just have to get the time to do it.

Apparently the MAF sensors are very very tricky on the LNF's and by putting a smaller filter on it it ***** it right up. Specially under warmer humid weather.

Unfortunately, I dont foresee myself getting near 15k from MPI. With their 10k offer I have a hard time believing ill even get around 13k for it. You really think they would go that high?

Its MPI.

was it high mileage?

There is one on kijiji right now for 15,000

Tell them to buy you that one or give you 15,000 lol.

realisticly i see 13,000 as being fair, for MPI.

nah km's weren't too bad - Just a c.unt hair below 90k.

Ive been looking on kijiji, autotrader etc. and its just been a pain in the ass. I cant find many 06 SS/SC's at all and 2 of the 3 I found were at shady dealerships on portage, and were only listing at 9.9, although that price reflected a 2k trade-in and 1k finance credit. I have a guy that will be doing the arbitrating for me so I think I may just give him all my receipts, window sticker, etc. and let him do his work. Regardless of what happens with them this week I will be heading to saskatoon on tuesday with full intentions of bringing the 09 TC home(provided everything checks out with it of course).
