Yeah I have a real good chance of getting this one... because it's from a woman and has no mods and that's pretty much the only two circumstances of which my dad will approve. I'm like you're only gonna let me buy a car from a woman? What type of fucked logic is that? Anyways. Trip to Douglasdale in a few weeks hopefully.
a few weeks? make it on the 28th of Feb and u can come to the Cobalt meet were havin, it's even on the south side of the city still too
lol that's some fuked up logic yes indeed, wat if she isn't very good at driving stick and glazed the clutch alot already? What if she isn't very knowledgeable about maintenance and hasn't been doing regular oil changes?? 2 VERY SCARY thoughts imo.

take the car for a test drive as well to make sure it drives correctly. take a look under the vehicle (bring a flash light with ya), check the tires for abnormal wear. make sure there are no leaks, check condition of the belts and look over the interior and if there are wheel locks make sure the wheel lock key is there. these things should help you out quite a bit in buying a reliable used car and if there are things wrong then you are already aware. oh and try and see how much wear is left in the brakes.
i was just reading some more articles on the race city issue. and i realized this wouldn't bother me as much, of course i would be sad to loose our only sports park in calgary but the fact that the city wants it for a ******* landfill is just bull, use it for housing or something but a landfill, come on.

i didn't know what qft was either..
I have a pair of yonaka racing seats with cobalt brackets on them, also the passenger one has the airbag sensor. I had them in my car for a while but now i have ss seats. Anybody interested in them? maybe someone with a basemodel who wants a bit of an upgrade?
Also would anybody be interested in my magnaflow exhaust (2.25" diameter so its for a 2.2/2.4L) and my K&N intake (2.2L)?

Sooooooooo...........................I bought a new truck. 
And I traded in the Cobalt. HOWEVER.......I am not picking up the truck until the beginning of March, so that leaves time to sell a couple of things.
OK.......now here is what I do have for sale:
CUSTOM Retrofitted Bi-xenon headlights
SOLD
I also have a HID kit for the OEM foglights. I am looking for $100CDN for these. They are 6000K and match the headlights exactly.
I have a CF wing insert for the highrise wing for the Cobalt. Brand new they are around $249.99USD plus shipping. It is in pristine shape, and I am asking $175CDN FIRM for it. Here is a link to a brand new wing with pics since I do not have any right now:
http://cobalt-addiction.com/exterior.htm
Scroll down and you will find it.
That is about it for now. So PM me if you want to do a deal. Also this is LOCAL PICKUP only and in Calgary. I won't be back down to Calgary until March 7th, and I would need to have the headlights that night because I am picking the truck up on March 8th.
NOW...if someone has stock OEM Cobalt rims with new tires that they want to part with and some serious cash then I might consider selling the rims......other then that though they are going with the car. Remember that the rims are freshly painted and have NO scratches on them. Plus the tires are BRAND NEW. Here are some pics of the rims:

2009 GMC Sierra SLE 1500 Crew Cab 4X4 White Diamond Edition (Same pearl white as the Cadillac Escalade)
Limited edition.......there were not many made.
There is nothing else really. Well there are more parts on the car but I just do no have the time or OEM parts to put everything back on the car in time for when I am picking up the truck.

Can't do that bro. The dealership has seen the car and they know it has the highrise on it. I told them I was taking the CF insert out and putting the stock one back in.
